I am to photography how Leo Kottke described his singing voice: Geese farts on a muggy day.

I struggle.

Given my complete lack of "eye" (or skill) there will be no upgrade in cameras except for this:



The pictures will still be atrocious, but the ugliness will be closer! Taken from my desk a few minutes ago.



I promise to be restrained

I never appreciated that era of cars much until I went to a car show that showcases them (has other stuff too). Wow, you aren't kidding. I'd love to have a collection of the hood ornaments, but the whole cars are really amazing!

This time of year, if you're out driving around in the evenings, it's not unusual to see tarantulas crossing the road.
Several years ago, I saw one while mowing the lawn.
Today on the way home from the store I saw one crossing the road and texted the family "while did the tarantula cross the road". When I pulled into the "driveway" I saw one crossing the driveway, so I stopped and whistled so the grandsons would come out so they could see it.

If you can see that from your desk it is a blessing.
Thanks for sharing it with us.

I agree with Patrick, but I'd recommend washing the window.

Seahawk, keep at it-,there is some level of skill that just needs to be brought out through practice.
I practice a lot😀

Off to LA to visit our son and his partner Maria- and the granddogs if course

I love flying out of Paine field in Everett, 30 minute drive and as long as you are there a half hour before departure you will have no problems -
On the other side of the coin is landing and negotiating LAX.
There are worse places and it sure makes little Paine field seem like a dream.
Early flight gave us time to go hit Redondo beach before the drive to Pasadena

Huntington Gardens in Pasadena-
Crazy amount of roses, hundreds of varieties and a treat to to senses

You two look great together 👍

Beautiful PNW weather perfect for the drive up Jim Creek to my buddies place- helping on the 2nd section of deck replacement project.
