Nature’s Glory

My internet has been almost dial-up speed for a week. Verizon and I are working on that. We spent an hour on the phone, trying various things, then upgraded the current software, which is providing some assistance, but not as much as it should, so they are sending a new card.

in the meantime, I am testing my uploading capabilities by posting these two shots from Plaskett Ridge Rd. taken yesterday. it is an experiment in connection.

Grace in Motion

Oh, and while I’m “experimenting” I have to add this quote I found on the NOAA discussion for today, just for grins. What do you think they were trying to say? “MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES PEE ACROSS THE BAY AREA THIS AFTERNOON.” Is this a new forecasting term with which I am unfamiliar? How does a sunny sky pee?

  • LOL! That's funny! Love the shots too. Hope all goes well with the new card. So frustration when internet doesn't work.

  • Verizon has just sold to another company here and I guess I will have to undergo some changes. Already there are big blips of time I can't access my e-mail. Frustrating I know. The sky is surely not "peeing" in your photos. I'm drawn to the deer and the yucca bloom radiates! It's has to be appear, not pee. But I like bloopers. Makes me laugh so thanks for sharing that, Kate! :)
