I'm starting to think I need to visit some BIG cities. I am totally nervous about the prospect, but I see so much good stuff on-line posted by others. I think public transportation would help alleviate some of my fear.
Just like anywhere else, keep your valuables in places that will make it as difficult as possible to steal them.
Last December my wife went to Italy with a friend and her mother. Her phone was boosted and her friends wallet was stolen on the Metro.
Don't be nervous, be situationally aware and you will be fine.

More snow predicted for the Sierra Nevada this weekend! Late spring this year!
I believe we will get some on Saturday. Just in time to slow down those buds...

Sorry. Hope that is followed by unseasonably warm weather.
Sorry. Hope that is followed by unseasonably warm weather.It is getting there, Just not fast enough for my taste.
I often wonder why I moved to a state where 40-50 degree temperature swings are normal.

Things are looking up.
Four out of the next seven days will have nighttime lows of freezing or below. I am ready for some warm.
Thanks for stopping by.

I am also amazed at how fast it happens. My Jujube tree was all sticks the other day, and then overnight green buds all over it!
Maybe spring has finally sprung?

Because it’s warming up. Recent posts show they had snow on the ground recently there. ;)
We did have snow last week and the lows for the next 7 days will be cool, 4 out of 7 will be below freezing with highs in the high 60's and low 70's which won't do the buds any good, but things don't live here long if they can't be adaptable.
Thanks for popping in Jerry. We'll talk soon.

Thank you kind sir! I was very fortunate to go to the falls after a rain. If we go without rain for a while Noccalula Falls becomes Noccalula Drip.
I appreciate your too kind comment!!!

Hmmmm, someone, who shall remain nameless said that she wasn’t that good at photography. I’m not buying it lady. The shot of the falls is VERY easy on the eyes.

Thank you Mike, but I think that you are biased.
Thanks for popping in though.

I envy you, Mike!
Please expand on that. Was it my mad photographic skills,
or the fact that it's FINALLY warming up?Mar 28, 2024 20:16:17 #
It may not have been exactly what you were looking for, but it's well done regardless.
Now this begs the question, where were you when I was trying to get sunrise shots at Waimea Beach? For those not familiar with the location, it's on the North Shore near Haliewa.
Okay, the Oahu natives are rolling their eyes. It was early, okay?

What surprises me is the speed at which it's in. Day before yesterday the tree in front of the house looked like the branch in the first picture.
It was supposed to be a progression of events but I dropped the ball on number two, it wasn't quite what I want but so it goes sometimes.
Number three is the south side of the tree which is totally exploding with color.

Sometimes I arrive at just the right time when a thousand images will surely capture something.
How uncomfortably close to the truth.

It was an off the cuff guess. Pick any time during prohibition,
Maybe I should have listened to my Dad more, Grandpa owned a Speakeasy during that time frame.
