Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted February 2, 2018 Administrators Share Posted February 2, 2018 WW, I didn't reply to your last post because I didn't want to drag this thread off topic. I did want to comment more on it, but think if we do carry on we should make another thread in either the Homesteading or Kitchen forums. weary warrior 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Popular Post Jim_Alaska Posted February 2, 2018 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2018 Ok, now back to the beauty of creation. For me there is not a lot that depicts the beauty of creation any more that the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis. In this respect I would like to include a link to my personal website and specifically the section that deals with The Northern Lights. I post a link simply because there are just too many spectacular pictures to post on the forum. I will post one picture to pique members interest. Then you will have to click the link to see more. http://www.marciesalaskaweb.x10host.com/webdesign/aurorapage.htm weary warrior, Alan, *Light* and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members weary warrior Posted February 6, 2018 Members Share Posted February 6, 2018 We took a bunch of archaeologists and their camp into the mountains here on the Peninsula. This mountain bowl is pretty high up, and affords more spectacular views of the beautiful state *Light*, Alan and WellWithMySoul 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminds me of a visit to Cradle Mountain in Tasmania - there is a sign which shows the various levels of visibility and approx. how many days it looks like each - with the most common view being just cloud and mist, and the least common being a crystal view. By the way, the photo is still spectacular. Alan and Jim_Alaska 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Beware of dogs" was not referring to pit bulls chained up in the yard while you'e out on Saturday morning visitation. I believe that dogs refer to human dogs, but I have been told by literalist teachers that dogs mean dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know what kind of "bug" it is? It's a bit hard to tell from the angle, but it might be an American Salmonfly or Stonefly. Was it near water? Whether it is or not, an interesting fact about these insects is that they lay their eggs in water, and if the water is polluted in any way, the larvae will die, so if you see many of these insects and their larvae, it means the water is clean! The larvae eat algae and rotting plant matter in the water. The mature, winged adult only lives about a month and doesn't eat.

Administrators Popular Post HappyChristian Posted February 27, 2018 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted February 27, 2018 This picture was taken by a gentleman in Sequim last Thursday. Even though we are surrounded by mountains, snow is very rare in this area. It started snowing Sunday a week ago, and snowed several times after that. Temps remained very cold, so the snow hung on. Yesterday it began raining, so our front yard is basically clear (the back yard still has a lot of snow). It is beautiful, but I''m ready for spring.

Members Popular Post Alan Posted March 13, 2018 Members Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2018 All trees are beautiful. They remind me of the majesty of God and His creation. As Mrs. Alan and I were driving on Highway 54, near El Dorado Springs, Missouri, one fine Sunday morning we encountered the beauty of this Maple Tree. Hope you enjoy the scenery as we did.

Administrators Popular Post HappyChristian Posted March 20, 2018 Administrators Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2018 This is a photo of tonight's moon over Deception Pass Bridge. Deception Pass is the strait between Whidbey and Fidalgo Islands not too far from us (in the Puget Sound). Notice both the moon and Venus (to the right of the moon across the photo). This was taken about 2 hours ago (7:45ish pm). There is actually a pair of bridges, and they are on the National Registry of Historic Places. The photo was taken by Rakan Alduaij and submitted to the Only in Washington FB page. Alan, swathdiver, Rebecca and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
