Thanksgiving Eve

The food scents running around the house are heavy with the anticipation of good foods. Since anything I touch cooking wise over the level of eggs and soup from a can is very very dangerous.. on the level of "can be used as a concentrated deadly substance"... yeah.. well.. I cleaned up around a bit. Clean clean clean.

While this was going on I was copying over more files. Its into the hop scotch part. That and going from 2.0 to 3.0 USB makes it longer. Much longer. Once this is done I will bounce this file segment to another drive so I can hop over to another drive. You might wonder why... Mainly it rains on the plain... but sometimes its directly on my head.. so I am not erasing a backup until the new backup is created and verified. Not having hard drive flowing out of my pockets means having to Hop Scotch. Sigh. I did do a few color focus edits while I was waiting and watching.. I also found a picture I edited for a friend. I had a heck of a time finding it and that was because the original was totally dark. Only after processing it did the colors jump out. Went past it three times. I will be getting some shots together for printing.. I insist!

Here are the edits.. not much but along a line....


Shades.


Signs and Portents.


Gilded 72


Inported.


Sign makers paradise.



Dat Color.

Sleeping dog stretch.

Santa Fe Sights and Lights. The last one was a pull. I liked the signs but the shot was portrait..and well.....

And along with the edges... more edges...

Love the mobile house .. not mobile home..... probably a chemical toilet. Water? But darn nice. I still like the container idea. Super strong. I have an idea ...but would it not not be nice to move your house with you when you go on vacation and it not be a camper.  I know mobile homes are awesome but they are still on wheels and well.. I dont know... Its that feeling...I could be swayed.

Black friday deals... nope... not going to be out there. So sorry. I don't get into it nor want to be that close to people. My problem.

Good article. Always knew it was .. though I would equate it with a machine... but a living thing... a big living thing. Abuse it is bad.. I'm all for moderation in all things. I am not for drastic changes in our use of oils or blah blah blah... I am for reduction in plastics that do not break down. Recycling any and everything. If we think we can change things the earth will wipe us off it. Note that most extreme environmentalists was to kill you. What they really are after is power or money. A real environmentalist wants to live in harmony with nature. Using and renewing. As everything.. in moderation.

Excellent!!!
