This one:
The clouds look really neat! I could hardly make up the house in the bottom part - had to copy it and optimize it to see what's there.

Thanks. Kinda neat to be able to just go out on your porch and snap that one. Since I live right on Oracle Rd, that is literally right across the street (though it looks a lot farther away in the picture). Camera wants to focus on the things nearest, and I don't know how to make it focus on the far things (in this case, the mountains).

After 60+ years of this white **** I am ready to winter in Arizona. I will be in the Benson area next month checking out the possibilities. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan winters are getting me down. This 'Yooper' is getting chilled clean through to the bones.

Just last month I saw the ice worms poking their purple heads through the crust of the pale blue snow. The smoke was breaking off at the chimney stack and from out of the deep cold dark swamp, I heard the mournful cry of the Jee-Jee bird. "Jeeeee-jeee- jee-jeeeep---jeep--jeepers creepers its cold out here.

Must be the case, because the pic I posted is no longer up. Guess I'll have to check it out. Maybe there is a switch I have to set to 'public' or something.

That's a lotta snow! So much weight on the rooftops! That's one thing I don't miss here is the winters. Originally from Michigan (lived in SE Michigan as well as in the snow belt near Kalkaska/Grayling/Gaylord area).

If it were up once, apparently it was public. Some sites just don't want their bandwidth used. Upload them some place else.

Yeah, I guess. Just used the software that came with the camera to upload them. It was a Kodak. Suppose I'll open a Flickr account or something.
