Interesting, to say the least.
Here in Michigan, in the upper peninsula, we have a Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox also. It is near the Castle Rock formation. I have had my picture taken there as a child. I'll see if I can find it and post it on my blog.

Thanks, ink ~ this was fun!

You can get free slide presentations online.
Try slide (dot) com or rockyou (dot) com, both of those have unlimited uploading.

A few others that have some limitations (space or bandwidth, uploads), are webshots (dot) com or picturetrail (dot) com, fotki (dot) com. Multiply (dot) com has unlimited uploading. Those also come with other expanded perks like blogs, pages, or other extra things.

Once you upload your images onto any slide show site, you then can add text and rearrange the pictures. Once you are done, save and get the embedding/HTML code.

You can embed a code onto your blog by using the advanced editor and opening up the HTML/source box then dropping the code in and closing the box then save/publish.
OR you can just publish the link to the slide show.

If you are on dial up, your pictures may take a while to upload and sometimes the site gets finicky time wise so you have to work on it a few days not to lose everything if your dial up goes on the blink.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for stopping by.
I just got a new digital camera and am trying to figure out how to use it. Darn it!

Anyways, there are a few interesting things around here that would make a great slideshow post.
