Probably not, so maybe some kind of party based on masks or distancing. Identify people from a distance?

Are you expecting the virus situation will be all over by then?


JohnS, no, i do not think the virus to be completely over by Christmas, altho, rumor spreading seems to running the lines of a vaccine.

The city and club we have is small compared and we all know each other and trust each other too.

We were at church last night, there were probably 45+ there, four people including me had a mask on, only because there were several out of town folks that I did not know.

Thanks for the reply too

Since this is in General Chit-Chat.

Coming soon; Christmas.

What would be a different party for a group setting of around 35-40 persons?
We've had the Dirty Santa, card games (didn't like as there were too many tables and not socializing with the group as a whole).
Gift exchange, man on man and woman on woman.
Gift exchange: man buys woman's gift and woman buys man gift.

What about a meal?
Catered, Pot Luck, meat furnished by club, bring a side dish, go out to club, stage show, etc.?

Really need something different that EVERYONE would ENJOY!

The group ages range from 35 to 85, men and women. Most everybody is married. we do have 3 or 4 that are not married.

Let me know please.
Thanks in advance!

What happens on these "spoofing" calls that are using YOUR phone #?
This happens many times for me!
Does the call blocker block your number and if so what are the drawbacks?
Thanks

Looks like a Sphecius speciosus or cicada killer wasp. They nest in burrows they dig in the ground. I had a yard full of them when I lived in Texas. If you see a mound of freshly dug earth a couple of inches high at the entrance of a small hole in the ground, it’s probably this guy’s doing.

Stan


Stan, Yes, I have the same thing in just our flower garden. They leave the vegetable garden alone, don't know why??? And I agree, they are hard to kill with Wasp or Hornet Spray. At least when sprayed they fall, then fly away, perhaps to die somewhere else, don't know as I have never followed one …

However, another Gardner told me to get Ammonia, when they go down in the hole to dig or what ever, pour about 1 to 1 1/2 ounces in the hole. Sometimes they stay and die, sometimes again, they back out and fly away unless I smack them down. Then I poke a broom stick end into the hole to fill it and be certain the monster is dead!!

Drawback, the Ammonia is harming the flower plants if it is very close to their hole....Not good, makes my Wife of almost 62 years angry!! Ain't Momma happy, ain't no one happy!!!

So, I watch and wait and smack the broom stick in the holes... Like I have nothing else to do with my time!!!

I've attached a photo of a hole that apparently was dug yesterday so others cad see and Identify the Wasp homes!. Here you can see the hold and the fairly fresh diggings scooped to the back of the hole.

I've not seen a cicada drug into the hole, but I have seen several katydid's brought into the holes. Where the wasp will lay its egg on the bug and then fly away, leaving the hole open for the young to feed and escape!

But I fool them!!! They never get out, cause they are DRT - "dead right there"!

Thanks (is the handle Square Bear?) for looking and taking the time to comment. The image at the foot of the bed is a rag doll and no face in the fireplace. The only two added images are the girl in white and the ghostly little girl in red at the head of the bed. As far as tweaking, normally by the time I post an image I am so tired of it all I want to do is get it off my desktop. In this case, however, it may warrant some additional work.


Concerning my "handle", yes, it is Square Bear. Many, many years prior my wife and I were avid Square Dancers, thus Sg. And at the same time I was in Law Enforcement, thus the name "Bear". The dancers gave me the name of SqBear.

About the photo. Re checking the fireplace enlarged, there is something there, looking again, it was not a face as I originally thought!!

And I certainly understand after all your work your wanting to get it out of your computer!!!

Still, you what done did do good!!

Thanks

I am by no stretch of the imagination a photo critic!!
However, I like the overall setting and the "ghost" is well placed, if you did this and is very fitting to the subject matter, "you can never go home".

I would have reduced the opaque in the girl at/on the bed. It is easy to see that she was placed there and not fitting in the bed.

I believe I can see a child coming out from under the bed at the foot of the bed. And I believe I can see a face in the fireplace too? Are both of them there?

If the photo was not blurred in the beginning and you blurred it, perhaps too much blur (for me anyway).

However, you nailed the photo to the title, as I said earlier.

GREAT work, perhaps some tweaking???
