SHINING THROUGH THE TREES

Took this picture as the sun tried to show itself, after being hidden all day from the gloomy clouds.shining-tru-the-tree-watermarked

 

FOGGY WEEK

It has been foggy all week and I have not seen the sun shine in long time. I’m not sure what I will do when it finally appears.

RC PLANE LESSON

I recently took up the hobby of RC Flying. Here are some pictures of my first plane and my first lesson learning how to fly it.

 

BRANSON HILL

This is pictures of a hill near Branson, Missouri. This area is totally surrounded by trees all around, except for the grassy hill that always looks like it has just been mowed.

ALL UP HILL

This is pictures of a roller coaster at Silver Dollar City. I forgot the name of this coaster but it was fun to ride. I took these pictures just before riding it.

 

 

TREE IN SILO

When driving to Oklahoma this silo always captures my attention when I pass it.

FAMILY SWIM

Was sitting outside the cabin one morning drinking my morning coffee and this family of geese came swimming along.

GO ROYALS

It has been a while since I posted here. Just like it has been  while since the ROYALS have been in the playoffs. Our magic number is one as I write this. Glad I was able to go to a couple of games this year. GO ROYALS

BUSTER UP CLOSE

Here is a picture of my dog Buster. I had been trying to get a random picture of him when he was very close to the camera for a couple of days. But the pictures would never come out the way I wanted it.

It would be either blurry because he does not stay still very long, or get an angle of him I didn’t want. Then suddenly he just sat down and posed perfectly for this one shot.

FLAGS SHOULD READ CORRECTLY ON BOTH SIDES

I bought an Easter flag on line a few months ago to hang for the Easter weekend. When I buy flags I usually make sure that they are double sided and read correctly from both sides. I hate when they don’t read correctly on both sides and if they don’t read correctly I do not buy them.

EASTER FLAG

I thought that I had checked it when I received it. I must have either looked at it wrong or I didn’t  check it at all. When I put it up this past weekend I was so upset to discover that it did not read correctly, I was cussing myself  for not noticing this sooner.

EASTER FLAG (2)

I went ahead and flew it for this Easter but will need to look for another one for next year, that I will be happy with. But I have to wonder why the flag manufactures would make flags this way? Who would want to fly a flag that does not read correctly on one side?

When you fly a flag you want people to be able to view and read the flag no matter which side of the flag they are viewing it from. Who wants to read it backwards. I have been told that maybe it is cheaper to make them this way but I don’t believe that either.

Hopefully I will not make this mistake again and you won’t have to read my rants of unreadable flags.
