I’ll get all of my pics from DC online soon – such an event, and such a great trip. Just a few more today.
Sunset
What a perfect day this was… wow, more than a year ago now. Cold, clear, windy, and perfect light for shooting photos. The company I kept that day was even more spectacular.

One from the past – it’s too dang cold here with too much snow falling. Makes for a pretty Christmas, but I ain’t going out in it to shoot pictures right now. Seriously, absolute zero would be a warm-up.

Between end of semester and this sinus-thing I can’t seem to shake (antibiotics are good for you) I’ve not been a very faithful poster. It’s hard to get out in the cold when I’m under the weather. One from the past, taken last Fall:

It’s not the southern-most tip of the continent, but the Cape of Good Hope is known for wild weather. From the lighthouse, you can see where the Indian meets the Atlantic. One is colder than the other, and there’s sometimes a line on the surface where they mingle.

I’m back in the frozen tundra from holidays in South Carolina. Got a few pics around Charleston and the farm and will be posting over the next several days as, frankly, I’m going to need a few days before I’m ready to spend much time outside here.

From the family farm in Allendale, SC. Trucks are red, tractors are green.
Oysters!
Mom built a full-out firepit/oyster roaster outside. Simple SC oyster cookin’ – dump live oysters on fire, cover with soaked burlap sack, steam, eat, repeat. We had a blast.
A friend of mine pointed out the nearly 1 ton of sugar stacked in only one part of this store – River Street Sweets in Savannah. I think I gained 5lbs just breathing the air inside… and the pralines I consumed couldn’t have helped either.

Along the riverfront in Brisbane while there for a conference. It’s so overcast and snowy here today that I wanted something a bit bright.

So enjoyed watching these ships come and go while in Savannah last week
