    Flickr: Help: Blogging How do I post photos to my blog?   First you’ll have to configure an external blog, (do that here). You’ll be guided through the set-up process, and at the end you can try a test post to make sure everything works. When that’s done, you can blog any public photo you see on Flickr.

When we got down the little access trail to the bottom of the falls, this guy was down at water’s edge, off trail, goofing around with his kids on the rocks. There’s a lot of water in the creek, and if one of them had fallen…
