Giving Thanks, originally uploaded by wind_dancer.

Shot by my son, Brendon Shave, using my Nikon D90. I did minor editing (only straightening and cropping) but he did the rest in camera. A beautiful shot! Thanks, kiddo.

I have been without a computer for 3 days (withdrawals) but have today rectified the differing problems with both laptops, and purchased a 1 TB external hard drive, a necessary chore I have postponed for years.

The weather here yesterday was picture perfect. Today, the opposite. Very chilly, strong gusty winds, and light rain this afternoon. I haven’t checked the weather reports (no computer, remember?) but will do so and post if anything of interest. If this is primarily isolated, or mild, I will leave you with this gorgeous image and post more photographs tomorrow.

NOAA Discussion Friday afternoon:
SO SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS ARE LIKELY TO CONTINUE UP THROUGH MIDNIGHT BEFORE THE UPPER LOW DRIFTS FAR ENOUGH EAST TO MOVE THE THREAT OF THUNDER AT LEAST TO EAST OF OUR AREA.

  • Interesting to have to look outside to see what the weather is, eh Kate? :) I have gotten so used to using the computer to "know" what the weather is, that when I am without one, it is strange. Beautiful pic your son took. Glad you have been having a nice holiday! :)

  • This picture is spot on! How could anyone capture more peace than this exudes? I really like the warm oranges and yellows with a touch of green. Thanks for sharing, Kate and Son!
