Got back from our trip very late Monday night, and spent a bit of
time scanning in the pages from the Princess Patter. I left out the
front & back page, so this is pretty much the 2 very detailed pages in
the middle. Evidently I misplaced one day, so I've included the
overview pages they give you at the end.

If you're unfamiliar with a *.rar file, it is simply a bunch of jpeg
images compressed (very slightly) into a container. I really just used
it so I wouldn't have to upload a bunch of separate jpeg images.
Hopefully someone finds this useful. If you can think of a place where
this might be helpful to anyone, please share it there.

Sheesh. Instead of uploading jpegs you expect people to download files
to their computer that are in a proprietary file format that they
likely won't be able uncompress without downloading a program that does
that?

I don't know about you, but I've been emailed attachments in rar/zip
format so often that I've had both winzip and winrar installed for
years. By now, there are probably browser plugins that do it easily,
too. (if the support isn't simply built into windows by now) I just
wanted to keep things together, in case someone wanted to take it on the
road, upload it to a website, or whatever. This was the only route I
knew of where I could keep it in the original jpeg format inside, rather
than trying to figure out way to turn it into some sort of pdf, or
something like that.

Nobody has ever sent me a RAR as an email attachment. I have a program that
will decompress them with a lot of other file formats but I don't think
people in general will have that ability.
