Kai Akker said...: Beautiful pictures. I saw that very same sun also rise, from a hill above Downingtown, PA, where I had driven to an all-night supermarket. I could watch that very same sun rise also because the all-night supermarket now stays closed until 7 a.m. I was 90 minutes early.; 5/2/20, 11:13 AM

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.

Narr said...: AWWWE-some pix, Prof.

In the book thread last night I was corrected twice-- 1) Slowglass was Bob Shaw's idea, and 2) Empire of the Sun was the title of the JG Ballard movie.

1) OK, I haven't checked (I came here first) and will only plead that I don't recall even the name Bob Shaw as an author of science fiction. But I don't insist, and I do forget.

2) Correct: Movie vs Game title confusion--my bad. Two of my friends were ERS fanatics so that title stuck in my head.

Haha, that reminds me of my granddaughter’s birthday party, when the family dog Auggie came trotting innocently in through his doggie door with the front end of a deer leg in his mouth. When everyone started screaming he got confused and dropped it looking us as if to say “What’s wrong with you humans!”; 5/2/20, 3:47 PM

There is and always will be something. Going outside and doing things is risky. Take the risk or not based on your weighing of the risk/reward.; 5/3/20, 6:04 AM
