Mellow Yellow Monday

I saw this small collectible at a store in Leavenworth today. They sell items from third world countries, to help the people sell their artwork.

It has some yellow in it, for Mellow Yellow Monday :)

Macro Monday

A little trinket left over from the Seattle Worlds fair, in the 60's

For Macro Monday.

FYI ...Internet Issues, due to change in "Clear" service!

We are being effected by a change in our ability to use our Internet, since Clear "updated" their modems.

As you may have noticed...this has effected my ability to blog, and especially to comment. The little icon just spins and spins!

Does anyone out in the land of blog use either Hughes Satellite Internet or Wildblue? If so, please provide us with your feedback!

Clear sent out their tech person, who said we will not see improvements, and that those of us on the "fringe area" of their coverage are seeing a negative effect to the changes they have made. Gee, really? We do not have any other options such as Comcast, or Verizon FiOs. Living in the "country" has some challenges for sure!

This is so frustrating, try paying your online bills, with no online to pay them from! So... I miss my blogging friends for now, and will be back as soon as we have something that will work! Jan :)

I thought this had a touch of color for Color Carnival!


Also, Lisa at Laughing Orca Ranch in New Mexico is starting the new year with a new photo challenge.. I thought maybe I will tag along with her.

It is Project 365, and I hope this will help motivate me to improve my photography skills. We shall see!

Skywatch Friday

For Skywatch Friday...
This was taken last week viewing lake Washington from Juanita Beach in Kirkland Washington.
Can you see the 3 swans swimming off in the distance? They were really a lovely sight to see. I was sorry I did not have my other lens with to get a better shot!
