A new, Western Digital 2 terabyte external hard disk drive was purchased from Micro Center in Mayfield Heights of Cuyahoga County for about $105 out the door today. I also went to Walmart in University Heights and purchased some ditty bags to encase my truing stand, but they were all too small. My laundry is in the process of being done and because my heaping mound has been moved elsewhere. So the floor in my dwelling is now free to conduct an inventory.
But I do my car repairs at a relatives house and that space may be needed soon. And these days, we've had highs in the 40°F's and 50°F's. But I'm not like other people in NE Ohio and I'm erring on the side of caution... this is just a fluke. There's a tear in the arm pit of my -20°F parka and my patches still have yet to be glued and sewn on my 12°F convertible coat, which has not been worn since it was washed last. I'll need that convertible coat if the high temperature goes below 37°F.
I just received notice today that flooding on the Little Muskingum River has caused the National Forest Service to close the Lane Farm Campground in the Marietta Unit of the Wayne National Forest, which is off of an NCNST rated side trail, marked in Whipple Section's map. Whipple's low point is close to there and without being there to know, it's possible that it might be flooded?

I merged the track segments for 3 of Buckeye's 26 sections. It took 10 hours, but that was with errors and learning. But also, these are northern sections. There are a lot more track segments in the southern ones. I recorded this to help me plan my addenda for the next couple weeks. Informs you/ keeps my records... one log does it all.
And I experimented with the pen tablet today. It has some customizable controls that I should probably configure some more. The pad's intensity should probably be decreased. And I've been using my new wireless keyboard/ touchpad. I discovered that the table that I'm using for the pen tablet puts me at considerable distance from the laptop. The only problem is that the right shift key is small and is to the right of the up key. When I go to type a file name in a "Save As" dialogue, I reach for the shift, but press the up. And since I work with similar file names, one of the other files comes up and I have to stop myself from pressing "enter" and overtaking another file. It's not my favorite keyboard.

I have an older Samsung Galaxy S D700 smartphone. And I was using Amazon MP3 with the stock MP3 app on the unit. Well, I switched to purchasing music from Google Play, where the installation of the "Play Music" app was required. The music would download, but only play on Play Music. I use this to hike and play on my bike, but the playlist options that were on the stock app aren't included in Play Music. And whenever I downloaded new music on Google Play, the system scanner wouldn't pick-up Play's music and list the tracks in the stock app.
I'm a computer person and the fix was a Windows 95 technique.
1. Tether your smartphone to your computer using your USB cable.
2. On the top bar of your device, slide it down and select "Turn on USB storage." It will inform you that certain functions of the smartphone will be disabled when the unit is connected. Unless your expecting a very important call, acknowledge the warning and Click "OK."
If you've never done this before, your computer will search for your phone's drivers and install them.
3. Open "Computer (formerly My Computer)" and double click on your smartphone.
4. Navigate to (your root directory, just after you double click in step 3)\Android\data\com.google.android.music\files
Between the slashes is a folder. Double click them in succession indicated above.
5. In the "files" folder, left click once on the "music" folder.
6. With your mouse hovering over the highlighted "music" folder, right click once and select "Send To."
7. A sub menu will open up, left click once on "Desktop (Create Shortcut)"
8. Now minimize all your windows and remember the following. The quickest way to get there is to press the WINDOWS KEY + M. On the desktop, find the new folder "music - shortcut," left click once to highlight it and with your pointer still hovering, right click once and left click once on "cut." Once done, come back to this window.
9. Go back to the window that is reading your smartphone like a hard drive (from Computer, My Computer) and navigate back to it's root directory.
10. My music is stored in the "Audio" folder. On the root directory, I'd select the "Audio" folder. Once there, right click once, select paste and that's it. Your stock app should read the " music - shortcut" directory like its a folder containing music.
If your music is in a different place, you might need to go to Computer->Your Device and type "*.mp3" in the search field located in the top right corner of that window. When you get the search results back, left click on an entry to highlight it, then right click once and select "Open File Location." For novice computer users, you're looking for the computer to open up MP3's in two or more folders. And that will tell you where they are installed.
