Captains Log.
March 2024 AD
Mud Cobra Field.
17 Degrees North
of Equator, Earth..
That's right we made it to the m/c field
around daybreak, March 24 2024 AD.
The field tractor has not been in here
in quite sometime. Grass as high as
me while sitting in the saddle ;-0-
Everything is soaking wet and
every mosquito in Thailand
is just waiting for my soft
flesh. In other words,
it was a lot of fun !
Mr Boney is being a Baloney while
Pumpkin Pie is waiting on her ride.
The Monkey is still racing around
peeing on every twig and stone.
It was a tough go getting through
all the tall grass and smashing
into the low hanging bows !
After 71 minutes we loaded up
and headed back to base camp.
Dogs are given a soapy bath,
fed and put to bed. I'm next ;-)
Thanks for stopping by
and leaving your words.
Mr PB has the donation link
up and running just fine now.

I usually buy a Yule Log cake from our local bakery, sadly they didn't make them this year, so I had to make one myself.
we drove an hour+ to buy a pair of snow boots for e today and sang carols on the way home after dark.
i don't mess around with 2nd hand boots any more. anything rated at less than 40 below just doesn't cut it.
This photo is wintery scene and shows the store of logs for the winter. The photo is atmospheric and the inside of the trunk brings colour to the photo.

More like a block pit! I settled on my final measurements. It will we 88 X 96. I had to pull all the furniture to the edges of the room to lay it out. Now I need some help...
1. I need either six more 8" blocks or one more 16" and two 8". Do you think it needs another big block? I could shift the blue one over a row and then place another big one in that upper corner. If so which color?
2. What do you think about the general big block layout. I'm going for random, but that's tricky.
3. How much should I tweak? This is a straight take one of every color and lay them down. No real rhyme or reason. In order of priority, I'm looking at... color balance, value balance (are the darkest and lightest fabrics evenly dispersed? (I think I need to work on the yellow a bit)), and finally quilting style (no big clumps of spirals, straight lines parallel to one another, etc).
4. Backing and binding: I selected Timeless Treasure Charcoal Sketch in Flannel for the back. I "think" I have enough to bind it in the same. Do you think I should? It would create a bit of a frame. Or should I go for a completely scrappy binding? I have a lot of strings left.
Any other thoughts or suggestions. I feel like I got in a bit over my head on this one and would appreciate your thoughts.
Just a random capture from my archives showing this empty frigid beach in Pennsylvania back in March. I have plenty of unprocessed photos in my archives so I need to unload some. Maybe this will cool some of you of whoever is exposed to heat right now. I was debating whether to do this in black and white or color but I think I managed to get the colors out of this to pass my rigorous criteria.
I just corrected the color a little I think I made it too dull looking after looking at it I knew I messed. I corrected my exposure. So I hope this is a little better scene and I came up with a different version that I will upload in a minute. Lack of software and glitches here in the office prevented me from achieving my goal :(
Have a blessed day everyone!

The biggest pile of logs I've ever seen appeared in a field on the back road to Leamington

I've been searching for a log to do a photo that will be based on a pinup print in the print the log is bigger but this one is just the right height for me. All I need now is catapult .
so hard to get a decent photo in direct sunlight.
This double waterfall and double log jam in Watkins Glen State Park was very interesting looking. Wish it was possible to get down to the stream level there, but I think they would frown upon that there. Here was good use of the 55mm from the 17-55 lens to frame this capture as it was limited to how close you can get.
The quilt top was lying around for years, the precut strips even longer and I can't even remember when I bought these fabrics. When I started this quilt I just wanted to get rid of all those stripes, but now I love that quilt. Although there was a time when I just wanted to trough it away.
I'm always doodling. Lately I've been trying to keep them all together in a log. I made this log out of recycled 8.5 x11 prints folded in half so the old print doesn't show then stapled them together. There are about 20 pages in a log. Sometimes I end up doodling on 3x5's so I just glue them in. I fill up about 4-6 pages a week.
Most of you, who have visited my stream before, know that I love trees. There are an endless variety of shapes, sizes, colours and groupings.....all beautiful in their own way. They clean the air, provide nutrients for the earth, homes for a mulititude of feathered, furry, slimy and creepy critters.....as well as shelter and warmth for humans. When you spend time under them, if you really quiet your own frenzied thoughts, you can almost hear them breath, and can sense their spirit.
So it saddens me to my core to see the rape of the forests on Vancouver Island. The huge clear cuts and shoddy logging practices are devastating our once sustainable forests. Our motto used to be: " Forests for the Future" . Now it's just "cut as fast as you can, ship the raw logs off to be manufactured elsewhere, and don't worry about the future."
Greed rules the planet. We must start to realize that everything alive contains a sacred Lifeforce.....and value that.

I used all the small 1 1/2" strips and bits, sorted by color and combined with white, to sew six big logcabin style blocks. With this quilt and the two before I managed to use 3/4 of my cut 1 1/2" strips.
