Our cup runneth over actually. Up here in Wood county the 3+ year drought may not be over, but it might be close to over. Lake Palestine & Lake 'O the Pines are FULL! The Sabine River at Hawkins is FULL! I saw some of the brightest green moss I've ever seen earlier. I'll record it tomorrow. Get out there and take some pictures!

We have a bit of white stuff here and the sun should break out tomorrow. I may go shoot a bit if I can avoid getting stuck in the mud.....maybe I'll just putter around the yayd and shoot ice on my neighbors rose bush. | | | |

I've been out with the furkids every day this week for a couple of hours. They love it, and I'm getting sicker by the day. Bad cough.

Weeks like this _almost_ make me wish we got snow in the winter. I hate cold rainy weather.

My problem with prolonged weather like this... I SPEND MONEY. I get the itch and decide it's time for a shopping spree. This week I am down like $4000!! DANG B&H and Frys!!
Now.. New camera body and too miserable out to use it. :(
Glad I don't live in Washington State...Although I love to visit, I am afraid I'd be completely broke with my "18% Gray problem" hehe | | | |

I was out this morning doing a few shots. Gray is good, wet is okay if I have my umbrella, mud is not cool.

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by,
and then it petered out and I had to retrace my steps and wasted half a day.

These cloudy days remind me of the Seattle episode of American Idol haha!  Now if you ever get grumpy about this weather, I know they sell these light bulbs that generate melatonin or something like that...same thing from the sun that gives you that energy.  Anyway, I would trade this weather for a sunny day and about 4-5 inches of snow for some wheel spinning action. I like watching Texans drive in snow...why? cause they freak out.  | | | |

There is this big, really bright object up in the sky this morning.... and the sky is this strange, eerie blue color. What's up with that?
