In looking back thru the blog, I noticed that there was not one post for June or July in 2022. That's no good! I use this blog as my personal journal. Years from now what will I think when I have no record for these months.
One thing I have been absolutely consistent with for the last 15 or so years is a monthly newsletter for our Geeks on Tour business. I start out with a little recap of our lives and work for the past month. Rather than come up with something now to fill in for June, I'm going to copy the beginning of that newsletter. The whole newsletter can be found here. And, the archives of all the newsletters can be found at https://geeksontour.com/recent-newsletters/
From our Geeks on Tour monthly newsletter for July 2022. It always starts out with a recap of the month before.
What’s up with Jim and Chris – the Geeks

Chris has been a Product Expert for Google Photos since 2016. Each year, Google has a conference for all the product experts around the world. This year it was in New York City. Learn all about it by going to Twitter and searching for the hastag: #PES22. But, the most important thing to
know is that Chris received the Video Creator Award! They used a Superhero theme at the award ceremony, and she loves her blue cape!

For the month of June we were mostly home

Our neighborhood in South Florida is great for walking, especially when the Royal Poinciana are in bloom.
Classes
We did not deliver any classes in June, but you can see all classes from past months on our Classes page. We call it a “Class” when we deliver a 1-2 hour seminar to a group on a desired topic such as Using Google Photos, Editing Photos with Snapseed, and Map-making with Google My Maps. The web page for each class includes a slide show, several videos and
sometimes a written handout. If the class was delivered over Zoom, we also have the recording of the whole class. These classes are for our premium members.
