Spring Stroll in the Portland Japanese Gardens

Today was a rare spring day for Portland. It was sunny and 76°!!
I have been wanting to get over to the Japanese Gardens before the cherry blossoms had fallen. Today was my day! I had gotten there at 3:45, they stop letting people in at 4, and gates close at 5. So that’s enough time to get some sweet light shots before they close.
Although I had 2 backup batteries…I didn’t take into account that my memory card was about filled up…oops! Delete delete delete!!! (In 5 seconds or less…) Thankfully I learned on the fly how to delete batches by date. Yeah!
So here’s some of my shots just off my iPhone. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 😀

It’s nice to top off a warm day with some salad rolls from Jade Tea House in Sellwood. I also got the mango chicken, but my eyes were bigger than my stomach!

MacBook Tip for iTunes

Have you been having issues with your hard drive filling up because of iTunes? I sure have! I only had 2GB left and that’s not even enough to sync my phone. 😦
I’ve also just been complaining about how I’d love to have my audio files synced from my external hard drive, but never knew how to do it until today!
So here’s how you do it:
When you are in iTunes, click on the top bar that says iTunes, go to “advanced” tab, in the “change” button is where you can direct the path….AND uncheck “copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to my library” so you don’t have doubled up info taking up even more of that precious hard drive.
I feel so dumb for not knowing that. It’s ok if you don’t want to admit you never knew that too… 😉
