115 Saturday Sep 25

Saturday Sep 25 Day 115


Weather report: Sunny with a few scattered high clouds. The weatherman has forecast sunny skies for the next week. We shall see starting in the morning. I wonder if weathermen in training take classes in prevarication. They definitely practice the art a great deal.


I am reminded of the great line from the Country Western variety program titled HeeHaw. “If it weren't for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.” This morning I can not go out shooting because of the SUN. The remaining trails face to the south east and half of the shots will be directly into the early sun. I will have to wait for afternoon when the sun is high enough and behind the camera. I got to the location only to discover that I had left my map and pad, used to identify a location, at my apartment. So it was back up the hill and wait till afternoon and hope that rain clouds do not move in.


The mist was back and it added great atmosphere to the shots of the Eyebrow. This is the longest trail on the hillside and clings to cliffs scattered upon were dahlias in many colors. I did not get very good shots of the flowers because they are up near the top of the cliffs and widely scattered. It looked beautiful but will not come out well in the video shots. The afternoon shoot lasted from 1 pm to 4:30 pm.

About Me

My photo
I have twin sons with 2 children each. I will miss them when in India. I have been a job gypsy all my life looking for new challenges constantly. I got bored quickly except when teaching. 3 years as a Middle School Music Teacher and 9 years as an Assistant Professor of Music. I played in a Country Western Band when I went back to college at 39 to get a degree in Accounting. I was a CPA that worked in various companies, the longest for 5 years and the shortest for 2 days. I spent most of my accounting life working as a Project Accountant where I would come in to solve a particular problem. I was rarely required to do a lot of the boring stuff for very long. With the passing of my wife and NO job to go to, I can now pursue my dreams in India.
