    Way too hot for that , but I did go home and did other outside work for a few hours.
    That was enough for this out of shape old man.

    Hit it early today it's nice out there.

    I have a security camera on garage I can post screen shot of that. I think phones should have settings to reduce size…. BUT they make $$ selling us storage :sherlock:

    i saw your recent use of that. I have a $15 month flip phone so no pics from that. I used an old digital camera and load from the SD card.

    Any old phones sitting around, with no associated cell service?

    Old smartphones can still use WiFi and have cameras.

    Sometimes on my Iphone 16 I will send the pictures to my email. I will select a smaller size, then just save the new image.

    On an Android phone there’s a setting to save screenshots in lessor quality. Don’t ask me where it was or how I found it LOL It was an evening of discontent.
    Supposedly on an iPhone there’s a way to save photos to files and there you can adjust them. Haven’t tried it yet.

    I take pics with my iPhone. Send them by email to an android. Save to photos. Screenshot them and now that the settings are reduced it will save a copy of reduced clarity. PIA but after you do it for awhile it’s not so bad.
    Occurred to me these reduced photos are really going to make tree id more difficult.

    Me and pictures? Well I will be honest even though I have a smart phone and could take pictures of everything and anything ; I am just the opposite and actually take very few.
    All the stuff I build , machine , fabricate whatever it is rarely gets a picture , and there is a list to say the least.
    I am also one that "does not" have his pocket all the time. Maybe just my age and a little old school? I don't know. LOL

    Filled up the tank on the hydro and I was going to split all the load or stop when it ran out of gas. Whole load was split and probably a couple face cord. 75% gets moved to the bundle wood shed, the other 25% for general cordage. Still have the first load from Saturday to split. It will have to wait as I have another priority score to clean up first.

    Moved the bark on oak splits to my friends shed and stacked. Roughly a quarter cord. Still have the maple to move and stack plus the first load of oak to split.
