    Cranberry Goat

    Lunch at the Arboretum: cranberry and goat cheese salad with raspberry vinaigrette, yum! There’s a Flickr group called “Lunch!” so I added this image to the pool. I had raspberry iced tea, too. I was in a berry good mood. 😉 Originally uploaded by GinnyRED57. Title: photo_0015.jpg

    Morton Arboretum

    Image title: photo_0014.jpg We went for a short jaunt today to Morton Arboretum – started with lunch, then went over to the west side to see an area we’ve never visited before, the Schulenberg Prairie. First things first, though. Cool off in the visitor’s center, then relax in the cafe. Originally uploaded by GinnyRED57.

    Olympic Travels

    I’ve added a new photo gallery, Olympiad. It covers the part of our big late May trip from when we left Seattle on the ferry, so we could have lunch in Winslow with my friend Christine before driving up and around the corner to Port Angeles. It’s also got some of the first full day we drove around the edges of Olympic National Park, and some coastal stuff. There are a lot more photos to add in the next albums, which will cover a day trip to Victoria, some hiking near Hurricane Ridge, and a bit of the Hoh Rain…

    Tower Bridge

    towerbridge-thumb Originally uploaded by GinnyRED57. Another photo from the 2004 trip to Britain. I have to remember, until I figure out how to get the text to flow properly on photos posted from Flickr, that I need to write enough text to clear the bottom of the image, or the problem posed by having a floated image within a floated center column will keep screwing things up. I keep fiddling with the customized CSS at Flickr; images blogged from Flickr look great over at the Blogspot photoblog, but they’re are handled differently there (no CSS drop shadow) and the layout…

    Union Jack raised at State Department, Washington DC

    Union Jack raised at State Department, Washington DC Originally uploaded by Antarctic Lemur. I may have to email this to Debbie in Washington. I don’t know if the Union Jack is being raised in place of the Stars and Stripes, or if it’s going up on a “guest of honor” type of flagpole. But if it’s the former, the alternate reality folks will get a kick out of it. I approve of the sentiment and hope these guys don’t catch any flak.

    Flickr Fun

    I’ve been slowly getting more photos online from the recent trip to Washington State – some more Folk Life pictures are up on my Flickr site. I’ve got a lot more to add to both the gallery page and to Flickr, I hope by the end of this week.

    More photos uploaded, more lively folk

    I’ve added some more images from last week’s trip to my gallery and now that takes us up through the end of the festival weekend. The actual festive activities start with this photo; I took a bunch of pictures of the mostly-inactive revamped fountain before there were actually people at the site. This time I tried to take more images of people and interesting things rather than just pictures of static performances. Take a one man band, a bunch of guys in Utilikilts, some dancing girls, some singing groups, and an incredible array of fascinating characters and long-lost friends, and…

    If You See Daffodills, It Worked

    Whee! It works! First time! David is a genius! MTGalleryLink is da bomb! Slickeroo! There are more tricks that it can do, like a random image, but the doc page says it only refreshes the image on a rebuild. Hah. I have a true randomizing script that makes the moblog images change on every refresh. It’s called rotator.php and I was able to set it up without David’s help, so it’s possible I could do it again with this MTGalleryLink thing. That would be fairly cool. Holy CRAP. Holy frick-in CRAP. This just made the last, agonizingly long-awaited Final Entry…

    Got Marmot?

    First, I see this: Get Fuzzy And I think, "Marmot? We've got one around here somewhere." And then I see this, and think: One of our marmots is missing. And that, all three of you who aren't spamming my referral logs, is how my mind works. Thank you, I'm here all week.
