Yesterday morning, such a beautiful day! The plants are coming up and soon there will be green and colors everywhere.

 

@Yaakov Just to let you know I just found and corrected stupid auto-speller typo (to descendants vs. decedents) on my response (which is post 1369) to your post showing picture of your home. This is very important because as admirer of beautiful homes I want you to know I was totally sincere, not just making one of my tasteless macabre jokes! Thank you!

It would make a fine haunted house.

What is that mess of pipes about?

 

The Red River behind my place, cresting after the winter run off, on its way to Nelson River and Hudson Bay, in the process helping produce some of the 5600Mw of electrical power generated by Hydro.

Looks like tributary water that's being diverted maybe for irrigation purposes.

Almost. These are left over from when there was a mine somewhere further up the mountain. The area still has lots of active mining sites.



On this pipe the wood is complety gone.

Are you saying that the "pipes" that I asked about....

Are actually hollowed out logs that are reinforced with metal wiring??

Wow, I never knew such a procedure existed, but it makes sense...in a way.

Photographer types!

This hit my email today, it's a one day deal: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/962630-REG/rotolight_rl_48_ik_v2_rotolight_interview_kit.html

I ordered a set. Just a heads up!

 

The wife and her friends are in Puerto Rico this week. Some great pics coming along but I though this was exceptional.

Six correct - nice. I would add that you were very close on another.

I did these years ago and ran across the directory. Posted them to a small photography forum (long gone now) and they got all but one right away.

I actually saw the Lucky Strike logo but I mistook the material for metal and couldn’t sort that out.

Edited to add: As I hope that you can see, it is metal. Funny that you had seen that correctly and it threw you off. I guess they made cans of cigarettes back in the day. I either never had the lid or lost it long ago. A friend who collects such things told me that there were two colors of these cans and this is the most common. In better shape and with a lid and in the right color, it commands a nice price as a collectible.

I always thought it was colorful and wanted to make it into some kind of little lamp or something, but that cancer thing kind of puts me off and I'm not even sure where it is at now.
