A poignant memory. My Jack a Burma veteran would have been 90 this year.

THAT is where I want to be. What glorious photographs – I’m sure the fresh air version was even better, but it’s almost hard to believe.

That is one good-looking, blue-eyed 90-year-old! It’s true, the power of music is very strong. It touches the heart and evokes emotions words may not.

Thanks all. I’m still working my way through the trip. I’ve got posts pre-published through the middle of the month. Once I make it through this, I may go back and revisit some earlier trips, though I will make room for posts on other topics.

Estivation and Diurnal, eh? Educational around here, as well as eye-pleasing!

Comment on Thousands evacuated when “inactive” volcano erupts by Mike Goad

Grannymar – You’re welcome.

Weather extremes can be interesting — and frightening. So far as complaining about rain, we do, too. Right now, the complaint is about the lack of it!

Patricia – Glad you found your way here again.

With my interest in climate change, I have a news alert on Google set for volcano eruptions. It generally results in a dozen or so news stories every day that have nothing to do with current eruption, but when there is a new one, I find out about it pretty quick. I think we’re at a balancing point headed into a decades long cooling, but one large volcanic event could send us into the brink faster and deeper.

I’m still working on material from the trip. I already have posts scheduled through the 14th and I still have a lot of material left. The good thing about this is that I know now that I won’t be trying to post near real-time next trip. I’ll start from the beginning and work my way through. I’ll end up finishing way after the trip is over, but the posts will be more sequential that this trip — which I’ll be posting about way after the trip was over.

Good Evening again,

Caspar Collins is buried in our local cemetary in Hillsboro, Ohio just a few feet from my Uncle John Grabill ( not to be confused with 1890′s Dakota Plains photographer, John C H Grabill). 3 weeks ago I had breakfast with my cousin at her home in FT COLLINS, CO on my way north to almost Casper, WY before heading for the Black Hills. Really a small world, isn’ it? Howard Grabill, Hillsboro, Ohio

Comment on Sunset near Douglas, Wyoming by Howard Grabill

Howard Grabill — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 04:35:10 +0000

Hi, Looks like we crossed paths at least twice. First along the lake west of North Platte and then Douglas, WY. The contact you provided was a great help in locating Giant Bluff in Elk Creek Canyon in the Black Hills of SD. We got a good ‘bird’s eye view from above in a small aircraft out of Spearfish. One certain Deadwood official worked with me in our serach for information concerning the 1880′s Plains life phptographer, John C H Grabill, a possible relative. I now have some leads to work on and will keep you informed. Many thanks, Howard R Grabill

Amazing pictures Mike indeed. The bird has such pretty colors don’t you think? I love the Orange with the black.

Mike,
Amazing pictures – thank you . We just were visited by a yellow group of birds I think are called Wilson Warblers? A stunning hour visit and then they were gone…no picture

Thank you

I have never seen a bird that colour before. It looks amazing.

In Ireland we complain about the rain, but we really have no idea about extremes of weather. Thanks for the video.

I have seen shoes on overhead wires but no boots on fence posts as yet. I must keep my eyes open.

Mike, in Kerala in South India, Nair women entertained many men! The signal for some of them when she was busy was that moment’s visitor’s footwear left outside her door!
