Comments (24)Pine cone found on Mount San Jacinto last year - from a Coulter Pine Tree. From Wikipedia: <Coulter pines produce the largest cones of any pine tree species and people are advised to wear hardhats when working in Coulter pine groves), although the slender cones of the sugar pine are longer. The large size of the cones has earned them the nickname "widowmakers" among locals.>...See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - F 10/28/22
Comments (21)I was intrigued by the 17 busts known as The Emperor Heads outside the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford, England. Despite their name, they do not represent anyone in particular (per Wikipedia). They all have a startled look....See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - F 7/28/23
Comments (18)Lars, I took a Desert Hot Springs sculpture pic back in 1997 on one of our two 4 week motorcycle trips touring the western half of the states. We made it a challenge to see how many of Toth's carvings we could find. Even then some of them had somehow disappeared or were moved to places for repair or we had no information to follow up on. This is a pic of the original one in a park near Akron Ohio. Sadly, vandals cut it in half diagonally some years ago. His carvings did become much larger and more detailed as he went on....See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - F 2/28/25

I'm using up vacation time, and we got up early to build VBS stage stuff. He's learned how to toenail screws, and only a quarter (he thought it'd be half of it) needed it, a board can be warped and still work well with cross supports, and how to alternate between pilot hole and drilling bits by keeping them on the drill.
Although he's already built me a BEAUTIFUL sofa table, I'd like an end table, coffee table, night stands, and when he's really practiced a sideboard with doors and drawers. He's enjoying all the ideas, so yay!

Honeycreeper at the San Diego Safari Park I am puzzled by the very white legs and feet; generally they are bright yellow. Maybe he is too young, even though he has adult plumage.

Here is a strange thing...that has nothing to do with pictures. Today is my son's 48th birthday, he and my daughter will be the same age until July 30. And I thought it was embarrassing when I was young that my sister and I are the same age for 3 weeks.
7 years agoMy brother was stationed in Fairbanks...that is my only connection to Alaska. So, here is a waterlily named Red Spider.

Finished the steps. Yay! The path needs some filling in...
7 years agojoanmn, my 2 daughters are the same age for 4 days. It was a little embarrassing those 59+ years ago. LOL. It helped a little that the oldest was 3 weeks premature and the youngest was 7 weeks premature.

7 years agoLast night DD and I went to the Mann Music Center to watch a recording of an NPR show - "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me." I've been to other tapings of the show and always enjoyed them. Paula Poundstone was on the panel last night and she is really a hoot.
