LOL! you have a point. i am not known for my common sense about getting medical help. it drives my wife crazy. i hate going to the doctor for anything. my temp seems to be coming down a bit. i am thinking that if it gets north of 102.5, i am going to the ER immediately.

Well not quite. I have had a beard since 1978. Why the mention of my beard. ?

Oh. Yea our HS had a dress code rule. No facial hair. The girls skirts had to be at least as long as their fingers when their arms were straight down.

That's when you hope for long legs and short fingers.

I disagreed. The skirt I would say yes, but they would have something more than just a shawl. At least the girls around Cal Poly.

What say you?
Never seen anything near that racy on campus....

Oklahoma has been having earthquakes since statehood. Most likely even before.

I'm going to have to redo this on my dads pc. My laptop ran out of RAM to save it properly.

Here's a pano from Badwater, Death Valley. It's made from 16 pix, in two rows. It's about 8.5 megs as a jpg.

Thanks, D.

Photoshop takes credit for the stitching. Camera is on a tripod and I overlap each pic by about a 1/4. The more info and landmarks you can give PS, the better they come out.

Because I was shooting into the sunset (or what was left), the forefront is back lit. This one may be a good B&W candidate... And a quick convert shows it is. More later. Gotta pack for the next trip.
