Bleeding Heart

Bleeding heart

Today, I went to the annual Horticultural sale down by Colorado College. I only bought two phlox there, but admired this bleeding heart plant while I was looking around.

It is almost looking like home again. WordPress has one nice feature, which I didn’t realize until I watched Jack pull up my site in his browser on his PC. If WordPress detects that you are a user with update capability for the particular weblog, it displays an “Edit this” link. I had a small edit link for my Movable Type weblog posts, but it desplayed to everyone.

Movable Type to WordPress

There are several resources on how to move your Movable Type weblog to WordPress. Carthik.net reviews some of them.

Snow patches

A few days after our last snow.

YAFS

This morning, yet another fabulous sunrise.

Extended Two Towers

Polytropos likes the Two Towers DVD. It sounds as though the extended version fixes a lot of stuff that was problematic in the theatrical release. I especially disliked the truncating of the Ent themes. (via “Electrolite”:http://nielsenhayden.com/electrolite/)

Sunrise

Living as we do at one end of a valley which runs east to west, the apparent movement of the sunrise along the horizon is very evident. At the time of year, the sunrise is centered between the ridge to the north of the valley and the ridge on the south side of the valley.
