Default Fords in the Fall

Time to share your pictures of your Fords in this year's beautiful fall colors. I got out of the house and took these today.

Lawrie-

Use "advanced reply" instead of "quick reply". Under Additional Options hit the Manage Attachments button. That will open a new window. You will then see seven buttons that say Choose File. Hit one and you will be given the option to take a photo, go to your photo library or go to the cloud. Open your library and choose a photo by tapping on it. If you want to add more than one, use another Choose File button. When done, hit the Upload button on the far right. Note: you may have to shrink your screen size, because if you are zoomed in you won't see the Upload button.

After the upload is complete you can close that window and submit your reply.

Edit: the screenshot I posted is excessively small, so maybe I haven't figured it out either!

I upload my pictures to PhotoBucket, copy the URL, then click the Insert Image icon above the typing area on a post (yellow box with a mountain in it), paste the URL of my photo in that box, and click OK. The picture is not actually uploaded to the Ford Barn site but is seen by embedding the URL in the post.

Yes. I'm headed to Yellowstone this week with the little doggy while my wife goes and plays with her mother and sister for a few days. We'll be camping in the tent since all the motels are booked. Should be an adventure with daytime highs in the 40's and lows in the 20's and 30's at night. Brrrrrr! Good thing Old Henry has a nice fresh air heater and our tent site has electricity for a space heater in the tent.

Scot, I can do the pics on my mac,but when I,m away with just the iPad I don't know how to shrink the pics on that,
This time we are away for a week and half so maybe its a good time to work out how to do it.

Wow, not fall here in the tropics surrounding Houston,TX. Looks to be 94F today. Around mid-October we will get our first cool front where the night time temperatures fall to the 50s. But then the nice cool weather here is in the winter and the summer is when you hibernate in the air conditioning. We may get 2 or 3 nights this winter with a freeze of a few hours. Last 3 or 4 winters, no freezes.

Great pictures, still green here, but I expect it to get colorful in the next few weeks, looking forward to your Yellowstone videos/pictures.

I guess I've got the best of both. It was 94° here in the valley yesterday. Grass and trees still green. But, in 20 minutes we climbed 1,000 feet up to where the color was.

Professor, My son is a park ranger at Yellowstone, I'll tell him to keep an eye out for your car. He would enjoy seeing it and meeting you.

Hi Mark,

Just wondering if you may know an old Army buddy of mine who lives in Berwick, ME. He is head of the car club "Rod Barons". His name is Tim Dube. Some other people in the club are John (Ducky) Duckworth, Bill Roberge and his wife Joan and Richie Silva.
The website for the Rod Barons is www.rodbarons.com
