The birds love the berries from this bush in my friend’s yard.
Why, oh why
I’ve been cleaning the stock tank every two or three days, since Hap, at least, has the messy habit of rinsing his hay before he eats it. I am used to finding wads and strands of hay in the water. However, this morning I could have sworn that I found mud in the bottom of the stock tank which I had cleaned, rinsed and refilled two days earlier. Are Hap, Rags and Smoke now using their stock tank to make mud pies?
Ubuntu 5.10
Yesterday, I installed Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger) to my desktop. I had upgraded via a dist-upgrade last week, but decided to do a clean install do get rid of the cruft that I seem to accumulate on my PC as easily as breathing.
The install went smoothly, except for having to re-enter my POP and SMTP information into Evolution, which I use for mail.
Sunrise hills
Have I mentioned recently how much I love my new camera with its telephoto? The hills actually are this copper color in the early morning this time of year.
Moon over the hill
Prompted by Jack, I took this photo yesterday morning, but broadband problems kept me from uploading it until this morning. Click on the photo for the high resolution version (610 K): one can see the seas on the moon.

My niece has updated her fotolog at Jess’ Pictures.
Rags in Snow
Looking east
I love those mornings when we can look down on the fog in the valley below us.
LiveMarks
I have been using del.icio.us as my bookmark manager for a while now. del.icio.us is a social bookmarks manager, which means that you can see the sites that other people bookmark, as well as your own. LiveMarks is a site that allows you to watch the bookmarks being added in real time.
Snowy Morning
October snow.
