trail walk / oatmeal cookies / my new powerbook / by Philip Tarlow

transferring from air to powerbook

1:50 PM: we have our jour fixe porch meeting this afternoon at the home of our dear friends, but i’m afraid it may get rained out. thunderstorms are predicted, starting around 3pm. we’ll see.

our morning trail walk was a delight. the early morning light transformed the landscape, with its freshly emerged greens.

i spent more time than anticipated loading the updated adobe photoshop & bridge onto my new powerbook, which arrived yesterday, and making oatmeal cookies for our afternoon get together, so i may not embark on the next watercolor and wait until the morning.

the powerbook, while it has a 13” screen just like the old macbook air, looks a lot smaller since they cut down on the unnecessary metal framing the screen itself. it’s a pound heavier than the air, has a larger track pad, a keyboard that’s more user friendly and, most importantly for me, extremely accurate and crisp colors.
