This is 62! Celebrating in Barcelona. We will be on the cruise with some of the other people I’ve seen posting on here as well.
I made these last week for our Barcelona cruise next week to see the total solar eclipse on the 12th of August.
Some quick editing of tonight’s celestial body, Heart Nebula. I’m going to reshoot tomorrow with a higher gain/iso to try for more color and details but I’ll have to up my noise reduction in processing. #dwarf3 #astrophotography
Do I need to make you a copy of this bc t-shirt? We did a carebear themed party and I made this.
Ugh. It’s not as bad here but we’re still getting the effects from the fires. Orange sun for the past 2 days. Make sure you mask up.
Hat tip to @crashingoutshow.bsky.social for today’s artistic break challenge.
We had 2 fur babies. Rosie, who looked like a mini rottie but was a King Charles Cavalier/pug mix and Tuffy, a very smart and loving Jack Russell. Tuffy passed in ‘18. Rosie passed in ‘24. Both were 17. I still think of them. We waited 2 years to get our new fur baby. Kirby. He is a Aussie Shepard.
That was me last night in Evansville, Indiana. Tornado sirens started around 8:15p. Then again at 9p. Then again at 10:30p. I was in the closet 3 times. lol. Only 1 was really close by and it was a funnel cloud. I should sleep well tonight in my own bed.
Hello! We are back from vacation and my peony did well with the refrigerator trick. It opened up and it’s about 6 inches across. Just the right size.
Anyone getting prepped for their colonoscopy soon? Haukadalur Geothermal area in Iceland.
Just casually climbing a volcano after breakfast. #Eldfell #Vestmannaeyjar
We were in Belfast to see Giant Causeway. We saw 2 fairy trees. 1 old and 1 new. And I thought of you.
I got this really nice picture of St. Giles Cathedral last night around sunset. And that was after 3 Tamdhu 12 yr. Scotch whiskeys. *hic*
Hey @sachacoward.bsky.social! I finally have it! We’re in Edinburgh and Blackwell’s South Bridge had it in stock. I grabbed the last one. Saved me $15 in shipping by flying over here. Ha! All that is missing is a big hug from you. We leave Glasgow tomorrow on a cruise.
Custom shirt request for a friend. The tiny print was a pain in the ass.
I need Bluesky flower experts help! My peony is starting to open up. Just as we’re going on vacation for two weeks. 🤦🏻 Is it possible that I can cut it and wrap it in a moist paper towel and put it in the refrigerator to delay it blooming until we get back for two weeks? It’s my peony bloom.
Where are you visiting? We fly to Edinburgh on Sunday/Monday for 2 days then train over to Glasgow and board a boat to visit the northern isles and over to Iceland.
