GOOGLE PHOTOS 
I've had quite a few residents who seem interested in using Google Photos to share their pictures with family and friends.  We'll hold a class on Saturday, March 11, at 9:30 in Sonora South.  Bring your computer, iPhone, iPad and/or Android device.  Please sign up ahead of time in the Activities Office so we get a headcount and know how to set up the room.  For best results, have the Google Photos app and the editing tool called "Snapseed" already downloaded.  You'll also need a Google account and your password.

SNOW
I guess we shouldn't complain about how cold it has been here.  Just received these photos from Ron Kirkland.  They may have to wait until July to return home to Wyoming.  😉
