Been A While


Picture Of The Day

today i’m starting something new that i hope i can do daily so that i can post some kind of blog daily.

it’s called picture of the day. my hope is to take a picture of anything and post it for you to view and possibly ponder what it might be if it isn’t obvious. feel free to comment, critique, and or make a guess.

here’s today’s picture:

cloud formation 10-18-06

i took this after work and right before i picked up the daugther from pre-school. the cloud pattern was so intriguing to me that i had to take a pic. now i need to google and find out what this kind of pattern or formation is called. if you know or want to take a guess, be my guest and let me know.

Blackout Sunday

did you all have a great weekend?  i sure did, well until yesterday…as you all probably know by now…there was an earthquake here in hawaii, specifically the big island.  we’re all fine except my area (on oahu) was without power for over 12 hours!

here’s a link to a picture of a home on the big island. as the caption state and if you look closely you can see it sitting dangerously close to the edge of the cliff where the land eroded after the quake.  i hope everyone there is safe. this was the first time i ever felt the initial tremor of a quake and one of it’s aftershocks.  i thought i was having the the chills (fever) until i heard some things shifting around in the bonus room.  luckily nothing toppled over, just a couple of the daughter’s mini dora dolls took a spill off the tv. everything’s back to “normal” now and i’m at work and the daughter’s in school.  well almost everything is…some pocket areas are still without power and some of the traffic lights are still wonkers…just hope there’s no traffic accidents.
