SPENDING SOME TIME Coming Soon!
5/12/22

Hello, Everyone!

Recently, I have been working on converting some DVD videos
I did in 2004 to mp4 format to load them onto francisbessler.com videos.
Local tech, Spencer, helped me out a bit to arrange for the proper software, 
but it looks like I have completed the conversion part of the project.
The project  is one I called SPENDING SOME TIME that I did in 2004
and only recently bumped into it by reviewing some old programs.
Surprise, Surprise!  Be careful what you do in a present.
It may come back to haunt you in a future!  LOL!

In truth, I had completely forgotten I did it,
but in 2004, I did a stand alone sing-a-long intended for shut ins
which I never did anything with.  I don't know if adding them to my author's website,
francisbessler.com, will amount to anything, but I want to put the series out there anyway
and deal with how to promote it later.  The series is not much,
but each volume of an average of 2 1/2 hrs has me trying to get shut ins
to sing some songs.  No guitar, no piano, no banjo - just me singing a number of songs
from the past with intent to allow others to sing a long.  Maybe it will help some who have lost their way
by virtue of bad health to pep up and see things a little brighter - and maybe not too.
It doesn't hurt to try.  Does it?

I have reviewed front and end of each volume that has been converted, however.
Front ends are just fine, but each back end cuts off the last 2 seconds of the original.
Ideally, it would have been nice to get those last 2 seconds in,
but as I see it, that is a lot like life.  No one knows when it will end.
Just ignore missing a bit of an end and appreciate all that went before.
Right?  As it is said, Don't sweat the small stuff!

So, with luck, after vacation ending at the end of May,
I will find that the conversions worked just fine and 
Spencer and I can upload them to Manas and team, managing my site francisbessler.com
and Crile and Laora and I can add a note about the effort to my site una-bella-vita.com.

Off on vacation!  Nancy will be spending some time with daughter, Debbie, and family in Oregon
and while Nancy is there, I will jet off to Georgia to visit with my daughter, Melissa, and family
before returning to Oregon for a few more days with Debbie & family.
We will be away from May 13 to May 27.
Have a Good One!

Thanks!

Nancy says - LOVE TO ALL!

Gently,

Francis William Bessler (Will) - and wife, Nancy Shaw
