Thanks for all the birthday wishes. It's was a great day at the Decatur Quilt Fair. Tomorrow we're going to the Bloomington Quilt Fair.
Sorry I missed some of your calls. I turned off the sound early in the day and forgot to turn it back on until late in the evening. I'll try calling you all back on Sunday.

Happy Birthday, Sandy!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Tycho celebrated by jiggling.

Happy Birthday, Mom! To celebrate, Dylan and I went on a two mile run. Dylan loved celebrating.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

I really like our kindle fire. I do yoga with it, games for the boys, and a little facebook. Not great for typing but convenient. We don't have a tablet to compare to though. And Brandon does library books on it too.

The Experimental Streaming Viewer allows you to view videos on the web using Silk.

This will turn on two other settings:
- Enable Flash Forward
- Prompt for experimental streaming viewer

Complete information is here, including how to use the viewer:

You need to have the latest software update to use this:

**************************************************
If that doesn't give you the desired results:

To install Flash: (You have to have a Flash compatible browser in order to install Flash. You can't install it under Silk.)

Do the following on the Fire / Fire HD itself:

Swipe down from the top > More > Device > Allow Installation of Applications.

*Install ES File Explorer: ES File Explorer

Download and install the Dolphin HD and Flash Player apk files from these links:

*Dolphin HD: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B46yVXXa5JqvcDRob2VDbG5BYzQ/edit?usp=sharing

*Flash Player: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B46yVXXa5JqvWUc1YVhjRlkyanM/edit?usp=sharing

Once both files are downloaded to your Fire, open ES File Explorer and look in the "Downloads" folder. You should see both files there.

Install Dolphin HD *first* by tapping on the icon. Then Install Flash by tapping on the icon.

When you launch the Dolphin browser, go into the settings and make sure "User Agent" is set to "Desktop."

Also flash videos stopped working on it and I don't know how to fix that

I like my kindle fire, but it was free. I use it for audio books from the library, Netflix, for internet when I go to mom's house, it is easier to move around my house with than my laptop, but I do not enjoy silence. Also it sucks to type on, but you may be more used to its style from your phone.

My Kindle died last week and it's out of warranty. They are offering me a replacement. I'm curious how you Kindle Fire users are liking your products. I can't decide if I should get one or avoid the Kindle replacement loop and get a actual tablet. Thoughts?

Wow that looks like a lot of work for the Yellowstone
excursion. I was amazed how many other people were out too -
- was that because it was a scouting excursion?

Go ahead and crank up the volume for this one:

I just jacked-up the size limit on incoming relho emails to 100MB.... videos for everyone!

DAS has a short line in that article.... funny

Apparently "Tycho" is the pseudonym for an ambient music artist. Here's his song "Montana":

Kamden and Payton found the last egg with money in it from last year's Easter Egg Hunt.

We've switched from saving the world to saving the treasures before the island sinks. Less altruistic, but the game is very similar. Easier for a 9 year old to join in too.

Tomorrow night/afternoon.

When's basketball coming to Champaign? Tonight or tomorrow night?
