Location: Weaverville, California, United States

Since my 'forced' retirement on June 23rd, 2005, I'm trying to build an 'at home' business via the Internet and learning more about using my digital camera, eh!! The picture is of ME & Kathy, my wife who's one bad ass Quilter!! We will be adding some of her handiwork too. I'd love to hear from computer & graphics people so I can learn more and we'd both love to hear from Quilters too!!

Trinity Alps, Snow, Trees, Lucy Cat, Clouds, Old Barb, Mt Lion Tracks, Moon, Zoom Shots


Hi Everyone,

There are a few 'zoom' shots where I was using my tripod/camera to shot way across the valley just practicing on different settings, plus getting some up close shots of the Trinity Alps and our melting snow caps. We need way more snow pack as this winter is really not much so far. But I'm not complaining about not having to shovel snow every day as I was doing last year, eh!! So far we've had a bit over 24" of snowfall, as compared to last year's 78+ inches!! The local weather man is just now saying that the greater area is way warmer at this time than normal and no sign of rains or snow anytime soon. Just use this link to see all the pictures.

Hi Everyone,

I finally got caught up with my editing of all the pictures I have collected since my last update and is now ready for viewing, eh!! I have a wide variety again this time, and I don't plan it this way, it just happens as I take my own pictures and found stuff on the web. I just put everything into a monthly folder, do my editing each day as I have the time, then I pick out a percentage of them to share with you & the World, on all of my Blog Updates. So please check out my latest slide show and I hope you find something that you really like viewing, eh!!

Since some of the pictures have a lot of text to read that's too small in the regular picture for viewing, just use the 'F11' key to go to Full Screen or click the 'Download' button on the right side to open it into another window. If you still can't read the text easily, then use the 'Ctrl' and '+' keys to enlarge each picture up to full width and then just scroll. I try to make everything viewable and readable as possible and still keep the download times to a minimum. I then test everything on my end and only upload to my web site and Blog when everything is working AOK, eh!! Go and Enjoy!! '-))

Also, since I wrote on a lot of the pictures as normal and since I also added a few words to some of the picture indexing too, if you place your cursor within the picture area and just leave it there, you'll see all of this as you view each picture either automatically or individually, eh!!

Snow, Snow & More Snow, The Trinity Alps, Amaryllis, Mill Pond, Mallards, Icicles


HAPPY NEW YEAR!! '-))

Hi Everyone,

My Blog Update this time is mostly pictures of our latest snow storms, which you'll even love or hate, depending on how your weather has been in December, eh!! We had a lot of below freezing temps at night and some just above freezing temps in mid day too!! But the snowing has stopped for awhile and the rain that was predicted hasn't happened. So as of Wednesday, December 31st, I have both the main and lower driveway cleared so I can use the truck to get to town by myself or take the car so Kathy can go too!! She's getting a bit cabin fevered since she has been snowbound as of December 6th, eh!! ;-)) Hope you enjoy all my pictures!!
