I have only one photo of moving water. It is not slow, but is being moved by this spoonbill who looks like he loves a bath. I am as ready as I will be for Issac. The laundry is up to the minute, the dishes are washed, refrig cleaned, pot plants moved under shelter, hoses, bird feeders and wind chimes removed; floors mopped, 4 five gal. gas cans filled, generator gassed and ready; flashlights with fresh batteries; linens changed; and extra dog food on hand. My neighbor sandbagged the front for me, my grandson mowed the lawn and picked up the trash. Rice salad is made and ready to eat (we just had pasta salad and needed a change.) Brownies made for the neighbor. What more can I do? I think I am ready. Now I am praying that the trees remain upright and the water does not come as fast as they expect. They think that the storm will be over us for 12-16 hours with heavy rains. That is bad news since our ground is already saturated. We expect to lose power tonight sometime. The gusts have started and are up to 30 miles/min. now. Sorry I could not finish looking at all of yesterday's photos, but will go back and try to finish as time permits. I hope to see some of today's later.

Thank you all for allowing me to start the past couple of days. It was great fun - so many wonderful, waterfull picures. If I didn't comment on your picture, it was by accident and I am sorry I missed it. I have yet to see a bad pic on here. You guys are great and you were very supportive. I'm headed to the mountains for a few days of picture taking.

Here's the link for tomorrow, Day 242, Wednesday, 8/29/2012. Enjoy: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-60627-1.html#1001920

Good night all.

Smoke,

Thanks for your day(s). Love water and family history has itthat I was conceived in a dory and born on a beach, hence I have roots in the sand.

Amy...Rock Is. SP..looks like fun.

LHammer, really hits home.. great shots and memories of going through the St. Lawrence Seaway. Don't really think that I'd make it on a cruise ship as I have only one necktie and only running shoes but I do have a slick pair of jeans for special events tho.

Thanks Fred Ann...

Fantasma ..thank you very much. Good composition and B&W can hide a multitude of sins. That Arkansas River looks inviting

Page 14: Catgirl:This is an underground (literally) bazar, carved out under my beloved, now-lost-forever Central Park, whose remnants are rather soulless looking now. Palika Bazar is the answer to ladies looking for retail therapy. Gentlemen also have a wide choice of men's items. Clothes, shoes, cosmetics, electronic items of every description, music, cameras (Oly have their main retain outlet here), watches, leather goods, children's toys and accessories, mini-snack bars, juice bars, coffee shops, etc. Lots of counterfeit goods mingled with the genuine pose a challenge to one's eyes and instincts. Hong Kong with an Ali Baba flavour. All in all, a nice, fun place, doesn't have the manicured, plasticky look typical of snooty malls...this is a place where you can let your hair down, roll up your sleeves and haggle and bargain all you want !! Hope to cover it one day, wide angle territory...
