Freaky Winds Cause Damage In My Area (Photo Essay)

My town of Napa was battered by a weird, freaky wind out of the northeast on November 28. I woke up to find the electrical power off. It remained off until one or two o’clock in the morning. No television, no music, no lights, no (electrically ignited) furnace, no computer and Wireclub. A pretty boring day.

The wind knocked down five trees on my property, a Poplar, which fell onto a peach tree, flattening it, and three old apple trees that were getting pretty old anyway. I cut up the Poplar and the peach, and then realized that I could shoot some pictures.

I took a trip into town and saw a bit of damage done here and there. Took a bunch of pictures. The first five are the apple trees downed on my property. Number 6 and 7 are some sort of large evergreen tree a short distance from where I live. Number 8 and 9 is branches from an old oak that landed partially on someone’s pickup truck. Number 10 and 11 is some sort of decorative tree outside of an apartment complex in town I drove past.

While shooting pictures 10 and 11, I noticed a bit of activity in the parking area of the apartment complex. Investigating, I found the damaged carport seen in picture 12, and the partially cleaned up aftermath of a tree in the adjacent shopping center that fell into that parking area. As I started shooting pictures 13-17 of a damaged car, the owner and his friends showed up. Curses were uttered.

Finally, as I was returning home, I found a large walnut tree that had dropped a big limb onto an adjacent vineyard, wrecking a fence and taking out a few vines.

These pictures are of dubious interest. What the hell.

Around My Place V

These are photos that I took on my property between September 1 and October 11, 2009 (also one taken on March 26 and one taken June 16). They were originally posted in my photo gallery, and then as space ran out, moved over here to this blog. The comments shown below originally were attached to those photos. In some cases, the comments are disjointed. This is because as people delete their WireClub accounts, their comments leave with them.

Picture #1: My favorite cluster of my neighbor Rugerro's grapes
> Babycool says September 06: Oh yum, they look good enough to eat, I grow grapes, but they are always sour. (no pun intended)
> StuckInTheSixties says September 06: These are wine grapes. I'm not sure how they would taste, but my hunch is that they would lack the sweetness of table grapes.
> barnestorming_girl says September 06: puts them all in a barrel and starts stomping! lmfao be nice wine to drink! darling one day we are gonna sit down and have a nice meal and a bottle of wine or 2 or 3 or 4! lmfao
>StuckInTheSixties says September 06: (laughs) Yes, we will!

Picture #2: More of Rugerros's grapes
(no comments)

Picture #3: A very luscious batch of Rugerro's grapes
> Karma says September 05: Makes me actually want to try a glass of the wine
> StuckInTheSixties says September 06: Beware the demon alcohol! *hic*

Picture #4: The fake owl overlooking Rugierro's grapes
> rain says September 21: damn mice, bet they have lil scaffolding all up the bottom of that pole
> StuckInTheSixties says September 21: It's actually supposed to frighten off birds. (laughs) Doesn't look all that frightening to me.

Picture #5: Mt George at sunset from my porch
> barnestorming_girl says September 20: wow I love that photo so beautiful and peaceful
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: Thanks Honey Bunny!
> Angelmouse says September 20: Would like to be sitting up at the top there!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: Unfortunately, it's private property.
> Karma says September 25: An individual owns it?
> StuckInTheSixties says September 25: I'd have to go down to the County Administration offices to confirm this, to see the maps showing how individual properties are arranged there, but I'm quite sure that it's split up into quite a few parcels, particularly around the bottom. If you look through the trees to the left, you can see a few houses up there. I assume they're adjacent land owners. The peak has remained empty for all this time, so I assume that there must be some significant reason for that. The view from up there would be unbelievable!

Picture #6: My neighbors' cat lazing in the summer heat
> barnestorming_girl says September 28: awww cute!
> PTBO52 says September 28: Send some of that heat this way sits! Cute pic!
> Karma says September 28

Picture #7: Rugierro's grapes
> Angelmouse says September 20: I am not sure what wine grapes taste like but they look gorgeous!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: I've been taking photos of this particular cluster of grapes for the last month and a half, watching them as they develop.
> SABLES says September 20: mmmmm

Picture #8: More of Rugierro's grapes
> Karma says September 25: Great photo.

Picture #9: Another bunch of Rugerro's grapes
> barnestorming_girl says September 20: That is a fantastic photo darling!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: Thank you Barnsie!
> barnestorming_girl says September 20: Barnsie wtf??? lmao
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: (laughs) Bugga!
> barnestorming_girl says September 20: bugga for sure! you shocked me! lmfao
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: (laughs) You're silly!
> barnestorming_girl says September 20: I know!!! lmao But I mean well thou!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 20: Goodnight, Silly!

Picture #10: A nearby hillside on a day with interesting clouds
> bunny_brainz says October 10: Ahhh, it takes me there. Gorgeous!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: It's all dry now. In a few months, this'll all be green.
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: when it is green, take another photo then please.. It's beautiful photo

Picture #11: For Barnsie: This photo was taken on March 26, 2009, the same hillside as shown before ...
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: ... but this picture has the bonus Turkey Vulture!
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: Thanku darling... absolutely beautiful I love it!!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: Your wish is my command!
> barnestorming_girl says October 11:
> Outbackjack says October 12: Cool.

Picture #12: Mr. Jackrabbit
> Angelmouse says September 28: I like his ears.....
> barnestorming_girl says September 28: What's up doc!!! lol
> Karma says September 28: How can you tell it is a boy?
> StuckInTheSixties says September 29: I just assume it's a boy, what with the name of Jack and all.
> GimmeURMoneyHoney says October 18: aww he should be friends with my fart bunny

Picture #13: Rugierro's grapes #1
> Angelmouse says September 28: What do they actually taste like?
> StuckInTheSixties says September 28: I get asked that all the time. I don't know. (laughs) I don't wanna mess with his grapes. What the hell, I'll walk out there right now and pluck a grape and eat it ... be right back ... Wow! They actually taste really good! They're VERY juicy and flavorful. I actually just somehow thought that since they're for wine, not for the table, that somehow they'd taste funky, but they're really good!
> Babycool says September 28: hahaha. Thanks Sits. I was wondering that myself.
> Karma says September 28: Seeded or seedless?
> StuckInTheSixties says September 29: They have a few tiny little seeds. Too small to remove from your mouth or spit out or anything.

Picture #14: Rugierro's grapes #2
> barnestorming_girl says September 28:

Picture #15: This spider is actually about the size of a bottle cap, not too big
> pablitox says October 10: ohhh my gawwwdd >_<
> Karma says October 10: Fascinating
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: I was sitting here tapping away at my computer and noticed this guy on a nearby cardboard box. I had to use a flash, and the lighting kind of messed up the picture a little bit, blurring it. You can see reflections of the flash on two of his eight eyeballs!
> lumu81 says October 10: We have ones similar to that, but they grow to the size of a dinner plater here!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: We've got 'em fairly big here too. I just photographed this one because he was there, and I wondered if I could get a decent picture. The lighting wasn't very good ...
> Angelmouse says October 11: I like spiders
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: This little guy would be just a h’orderve for Lola!
> lois_lane says October 11: Jeez man!!!
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: awesome photo!!!
> StarFlavored says October 11: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
> snowy_xx says October 11: This is freaking me out. Not as bad as lois' new profile pic though lol (Mike Myers)
> PTBO52 says October 11
Eight eyeballs ewww!

Picture #16: Scrub jay
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: awesome photo again darling
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: Thank you, Darling!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: * laughs @ "Brittany" *

Picture #17: A dried flower top from clump grass
> Karma says October 10: Great photo
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: Spur of the moment photo. I was shooting the green/purple grapevine leaf, and I noticed this too. I like the symmetry of it.
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: you take really great photos darling...
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11
Thank you, Darling!

Picture #18: My neighbors' cat sitting in my walnut tree
> Karma says October 10: Love it!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: I was happy with this picture. I was only able to take two quick shots before she climbed out of the tree and walked off.
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: so cute

Around Napa Valley V

These are photos that I took in the Napa Valley area, where I live, between August 24 and October 31, 2009, for the most part, as I went about my normal daily activities, going the few miles into town and returning. (One picture from June 8 was also slipped in there.) A few photos were taken during little afternoon excursions I made around this area for the purpose of taking pictures. They were originally posted in my photo gallery, and then as space ran out, moved over here to this blog. The comments shown below originally were attached to those photos. In a few cases, the comments are disjointed. This is because as people delete their WireClub accounts, their comments leave with them.

Picture #1: A very tiny Western Fence Swift, photographed on a handrail at my bank
> barnestorming_girl says September 02: you doing this to haunt me aren't you? lmao good photo thou!
> Karma says September 02: Nice shot
> StuckInTheSixties says September 02
He wasn't a very cooperative subject. He kept scurrying to the far side of the rail he's on, so I'd stick my hand around there, and shoo him back where I could shoot him. And just as I'd get the camera focused, he'd move again. I chased him around there for quite a while, trying to get him to stand still long enough to get a nice, tight shot.

Picture #2: The same little lizard at the bank. He's only about 2 inches/5 cm long.
> barnestorming_girl says September 02: Onya darling! and I had to click on this pic 1st!!! lmfao yuck!!! good photo thou darling
> StuckInTheSixties says September 02: He's just a tiny little thing. Nose to tail tip, about as long as your pinky finger.
> Raven says September 02: Aaawwww

Picture #3: These hills are seen near the center-horizon of my typical "Weekly Photo" (see the picture above)
(no comments)

Picture #4: Christian protestors at a Planned Parenthood clinic in downtown Napa
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: your on the wrong side of the road!!! lmao
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: (laughs) You are!

Special note about this photograph: I exchanged a series of comments with one “Jughound604” about the picture, religion, the concept of intelligent design, and other things. He was a pretty rude bastard. He has since deleted his account, taking the comments with him. However … I kind of expected that this would happen, and took PrintScreens of the entire exchange, as much to satisfy my packrat tendencies as anything, but also to present as a separate blog should I decided to do so at a later time.

I have omitted the remaining one-sided conversation, as it appeared with my Picture Gallery, from this blog.

Picture #5: I was photographing vineyards upvalley when several fire trucks went screaming by with lights/sirens
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: awesome photo..
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: The driver gave me a huge blast on his horn as he went by me!

Picture #6: A pretty decorative Maple tree in Napa
> Karma says October 10: Very autumnal.
> StuckInTheSixties says October 10: Non-native decorative tree in a residential neighborhood.
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: beautiful
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: It has lots of COLOURS!! LOL
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: What's with the unnecessary "U" in "colors"? (laughs) You drive on the wrong side of the road, too!
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: lmao
> SABLES says October 11: I love the colours of fall, my favorite time of year!

Picture #7: Grapevine leaf #2
> Karma says October 10: Cool
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: awesome

Picture #8: Grapevine leaf #3
> barnestorming_girl says October 11: look at all those beautiful C O L O U R S lmao
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: (laughs) If you're going to use a needless "U", why not go all the way ... "loouk at all thouse beautiful colours" "lmaou"

Picture #9: A grapevine leaf changing into autumn colors
> PTBO52 says October 25: Good shot!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 25: It's a little over-exposed at the bottom of the picture where there's a little glare, but it's not bad. It's a pretty leaf, though, isn't it?
> Karma says October 26: Nice
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: great photo but it is again COLOURS!!! lol
> StuckInTheSixties says October 27: Again, Ppppbbbbfffftttt!
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: lmao

Picture #10: For antonov3andahalf
> antonov3andahalf says October 11: wtf dude where the heckeronies did you find this dear lord! lmfao
> antonov3andahalf says October 11: wait a minute u just photoshopped that didnt you? you little turd imma slap you with a big ass fish! *shakes fist* but stilll funy
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11
Lemme post the original photo now. By the way, I altered it using the Paint program in my XP system.
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11
By the way again, for the rest of you, "Wooter" is a nickname I have for Ant.

Picture #11: This is the original, unretouched photo ... Woot! Woot!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: By the way, this isn't a photo I found online or anything. I took the photo myself when I was in the cemetary making the "Foam Born" picture. I was on my way out, and it caught my eye. I had to take the picture!
> lois_lane says October 11: Neat!!! We had one near our old house that was a huge checker board and it was even featured in Ripleys believe it or not!!I think things like that are kools!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 11: I guess I'm gonna have to go back there and see what's on the front of that stone.
> Karma says October 12: Woot!
> lois_lane says October 12: HAHAHA I meant In real life tho lols!!!Not a cropped pic..
> StuckInTheSixties says October 12
The picture above is not altered in any way. "WOOTERS" is real. I changed altered it in the other pic to "WOOTER."

Picture #12: The resting place of Shorty and Aunt Ethel Wooter
> StuckInTheSixties says October 17: There were comments made about the couple of earlier photos I made of this gravestone that speculated that I have "Photoshopped" the name. I did, indeed, alter a photograph to change "Wooters" (engraved on the back of the stone) into "Wooter," because I use that word as a nickname for Ant. Here is the front of the stone, showing doubters that the two people at rest here are, indeed, named "Wooters." RIP Shorty and Aunt Ethel.

Picture #13: Steel and glass sculpture #1
> RUBY says October 14: nice ..like that
> barnestorming_girl says October 15: that one is beta, you can see it's structure beta ... It kinda looks like a tree! lol
> Outbackjack says October 15: Thats different.

Picture #14: Steel and glass sculpture #2
> RUBY says October 14:
> barnestorming_girl says October 15: awesome
> SABLES says October 15: very pretty

Picture #15: Grape vine leaves.
> PTBO52 says October 25: Napa Valley, the best!
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: awesome photo!!

Picture #16: A crappy photo of a cute little lizard on a grape vine
> PTBO52 says October 25: Did he get drunk lmao
> StuckInTheSixties says October 25: (laughs) There's no alcohol until the grape juice has fermented!
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: he is not a cute lizard!!! lol
> StuckInTheSixties says October 27: You and your lizard phobia. I watched a TV show the other day about Monitor Lizards in some part of Australia called "Redsands." They took tiny little camera's, attached them to these huge lizards, and turned them loose so you could then see their perspective as the go about their business. Pretty cool!
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: and that is why I didn't watch that!! lol

Picture #17: I was taking photos of vineyards when this guy came riding by.
> PTBO52 says October 25: What a life SITS
> Karma says October 26: Did he ask which way the fox went?
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: Ride em cowboy! I love horse riding!
> StuckInTheSixties says October 27
He looks a little disgruntled, but he actually smiled and said "Hi" just after this picture was clicked.

Picture #18: Purple flowers at the entrance of a local winery
> PTBO52 says October 25: That's it, my bags are packed lol
> Karma says October 26: Great
> SABLES says October 26: wow
> barnestorming_girl says October 27:I love it! beautiful
> StuckInTheSixties says October 27: Yeah, nice colors. (laughs)
> barnestorming_girl says October 27: COLOURS!!!! lmao

Picture #19: These Cabernet Sauvignon vines down the road from me were harvested a couple weeks back.
(no comments)

Picture #20: Lotsa pretty autumn colors.
> GimmeURMoneyHoney says November 02: pretty
> StuckInTheSixties says November 02: Thank you, Bunny Fart!

Picture #21: A pretty grapevine leaf
> Karma says November 01: Do they have people rake the fallen grape leaves later in the fall?
> StuckInTheSixties says November 01: (laughs) Nope. That would be a lot of rakin'. It goes back into the soil.
> Karma says November 01: What? It just sinks into the ground?
> StuckInTheSixties says November 01: The debris just kind of lays there on the ground and gets tilled back into the soil.
> SABLES says November 02: beautiful!

Previously Posted PrintScreens II

Below are PrintScreens that date from June 26 to October 15, 2009. They were originally posted in my photo gallery, and then as space ran out, moved over here to this blog. The comments shown below originally were attached to those PrintScreens when they were posted in my gallery. These comments, in some cases, may appear disjointed. This is because some of the people who posted them later deleted their accounts and their comments disappeared as a consequence.

Photo #1: Holly’s tattoo
> StuckInTheSixties says June 26: I had to cover up another tattoo underneath of it.
> ThatGirl says June 26: bahahahahahahahahaha I'm laughing so much there's tears hahahahahahahaha; I love you Smirky
> StuckInTheSixties says June 26: (smiles)

Photo #2: I suspect that I am not the only person to receive this letter ...
> ThatGirl says July 03: A lot should be two words. Don't do it Smirky... she's silly.
> StuckInTheSixties says July 03: I think she probably wants to send me cam images for $1.99 per minute.
> ThatGirl says July 03: Bargain... I charge at LEAST twice that...
> barnestorming_girl says July 04: wow!!! lmao
> StuckInTheSixties says July 04: OK. Let me rewrite this message to make it convey what I think it is actually meant for: greeting from juliane.jones@y****.com; My name is actually something other than juliane Jones. I saw your profile, along with dozens of other profiles, chosen only because you're all heterosexual men, today and became intrested in your money. I would also like to know your money more intimately by getting you to funnel some of it in my direction via your credit card, and i want you to send an email to my email address so i can give you a picture, which may or may not actually be mine, depending upon whether or not my scam involves a cam, for you to know whom i am so you can give me some of your money. Here is my email addresscjuliane.jones@y****.com) I believe we can move from here towards me getting some of your money should you be lonely, h0rny, and gullible enough to actually provide the credit card information that I seek! The person, who may or may not actually be me, but who is the person running this scam, is waiting for your mail to my email address above. julianebaby (Remember this dopey little fakey sounding homily I'm providing serves the purpose of making me seem a little more human and hopefully will, if you're lonely, h0rny and gullible enough, increase the likelihood that you fall for this scam.) (juliane.jones@y****.com)
> Outbackjack says July 04: ROFL SITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Picture #6: Timing!

> StuckInTheSixties says July 06
OK. Here’s the deal: Arkle has been creating a series of Forums with one-word titles: Cannabalism, Sewers, Piracy, Treason, others. They’re very entertaining. She just created one called “Asylums!” The obvious joke that came to my mind, and Queenie’s too, and likely everyone’s, is that the asylum is named “WireClub.” So I went to the forum with the joke in mind, but alas, Queenie had gotten there first with the joke. So I was adding my two cents to the forum, basically saying to the forum what I’m saying to you here and now. As I was writing the forum entry, Queenie popped on to my screen with an instant message, just saying “Hello” to me. That should, I think, (over)explain everything.
> StuckInTheSixties says July 06
Um ... OK. Loved the movie, by the way. Especially the scene where Grace Kelly goes into his apartment and is almost caught. Vintage Hitchcock.
> StuckInTheSixties says July 06
Ever see Vertigo? Jimmy Stewart/Alfred Hitchcock again, this time with Kim Novak. RAWR!
> StuckInTheSixties says July 06
(shrugs) It goes where it goes. Ain't that true, Queenie?

Picture #9: (no caption)
> Geoff says July 30: lol, heard that one before. No dispute, or we'll ignore you. **sigh**
> StuckInTheSixties says July 30: Well, perhaps they're not ready for the likes of me. As you know, I'm an agnostic. I'll believe ANYTHING if shown objective evidence. And I'll remain openminded about the possibility of pretty much anything. But I will only believe in things for which there is objective evidence. And I view the belief in "ghosts" and other "paranormal" stuff as essentially the same thing as religion. It's a belief of something for which there is no objective evidence. Curiously, the creator of this club seems to be the opposite of an evangelist. If you're not aligned with her already, she wants no part of you. So who knows. They might have something there with those ghosts and stuff. Not holding my breath though ...
> lois_lane says July 30: Its true..To say you dont want any part of someone who doesnt believe in the same thing or "things" you believe..you must have a very small "class" (used loosely) of people around you and thats a real shame...No opening for a good conversation and thats a waste rite there!!!
> StuckInTheSixties says July 30: (laughs) Maybe I did this just because I like a good argument, especially one I think I'll do well in. Actually, I'm hoping some "ghost believer" will weigh in here.

Picture #10: Oops! It appears that someone isn't being honest here!
> StuckInTheSixties says July 31: Will the REAL [insert name] please stand up?
> veronica says July 31: doppelgangers exist ?
> JassyJas says July 31: ahahahahahahahahahahahaha
> AMurderDivine says July 31: They're "twins"! lol
> StuckInTheSixties says July 31: This reveals how little I know about recent popular culture. It's actually a picture of Vanessa Hudgens, who co-starred in the "High School Musical" movies. And to be fair, AliciaRockz makes a (vague) reference to this in her profile. TienaDee, however, makes no reference, and those leaving comments on her profile page seem to think that this is her. Isn't there some sort of regulation pertaining to downloading the pictures of celebrites?
> marymary says July 31
> Babycool says July 31: LOL. Busted!!!!! If it wasnt for you SITS, i wudnt even think things like this wud happen. Very amusing, once again.
> StuckInTheSixties says July 31: Neither profile is "Private." Take a look. Your guess is as good as mine.
> Doodsy says July 31: hahahahah sprung!!!!! Pretty sad.
> StuckInTheSixties says July 31: Meh ... ain't that big of a deal. Someone wanted to look pretty, I 'spose.

Picture #11: A little somethin’ for lois

> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: I didn't even realize I had 69 pics until i looked at this lol...maybe i should add 1 more lol
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: Hahahahaha! Rather specific in the description of your pictures! Are you also going to depict any other s3x acts besides that? StuckInTheSixties says August 09: Hahaha! Who are the pictures with? I assume we won't be able to see a face! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: well they're just pics of me lol
StuckInTheSixties says August 09: Hahahahahahaha! OK. I'll quit!
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: I never thought you would quit so easily lol
> Outbackjack says August 09: You cant get anything past sits.
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: I have a sharp eye. I saw that number up there, then glanced back at the headline of the blog ... The joke was obvious! I didn't even have to doctor it up!
> AMurderDivine says August 09: Wow, that's really kinky!
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: I thought they prohibited porn, but apparently Sweet managed to post pictures of her doing ... "that".
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: It's NOT porn...it's art lol!!
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: So the guy you are engaged in this act of mutual ... oral gratification with ... his name is Art?
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: I never said that!! And I never claimed there was someone else involved in the pics lol...
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: Well, that particular "numerically" described act involves two people. So when you said, "it's art," I figured you were talking about "Art" and simply not capitalizing his name, like "sweetnsassygal77". Hahahahaha! I'm relentless, ain't I?
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 09: yeah well...uh...i think...uh...um, i dunno what to say lol
> StuckInTheSixties says August 09: Ah-HAH!
> Dawn says August 09: sassy you naughty naughty girl >.<
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 10: I'm not naughty!! I'm very very very VERY innocent
> StuckInTheSixties says August 10
Um-hmm ... that PrintScreen has "innocent" written all over it!

Picture #13: Haha! Note the "Chat Room" and the "Reputation" level.
> AMurderDivine says August 17: LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They're pretty kinky actually
> StuckInTheSixties says August 17: Hahahahaha! I have a sharp eye! I got sweetnsassy with this gag too!
> sweetnsassygal77 says August 17: yeah you did...was pretty funny cause i didn't even realize i had that many pics lol
> StuckInTheSixties says August 17: Be warned, WireClubbers! If you have 69 pictures in your gallery, and I happen to see it, this is what the result will be!

Picture #14: Somewhere in this satellite image is my house
> snowy_xx says September 04: I think its the one beside the big tree
> Karma says September 04: Your windows are dirty.
> StuckInTheSixties says September 04: (laughs) X 2!
> veronica says September 04: it would be nice if you had an X marks the spot .
> StuckInTheSixties says September 04: I'm a little too security conscious to do that. Perhaps that's excessively cautious, but if I err, I'd prefer to err on the side of caution. It goes along with why I also don't reveal my actual name, even my first name.
> Audi says September 05: i dont really care if people know my name i really dont... i mean i have done nothing to people.. yet. so its all good
> barnestorming_girl says September 05: *jumps up and down* but dam! I cant find it!! lmfao but mow your lawn will ya! lmfao

Picture #15: 147 friends, but only Tink is here with me at the moment
> veronica says September 13: veronica has 700 + friends another 1300 that she hasn't approved yesterday only 4 people were on .
> StuckInTheSixties says September 13: I'm always waiting for the moment when there are none at all. Just a silly little thing. This is as close to it as I've gotten.
> StuckInTheSixties says September 13: That would have been cheating ...
> NewHat says September 13: Now that is funny Veronica, do you save the requests you don't accept?
> StuckInTheSixties says September 13: I wondered that too ... symbolic scrap book of the unworthy?
> barnestorming_girl says September 14: wow just wow!!!

Picture #16: Laura, The Naughty Nurse!
> AMurderDivine says September 04: ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Picture #17: This should indicate how it was done ...
> StuckInTheSixties says September 04: I took the "naughty nurse" pic, and a pic of her, from Laura's gallery. I shrunk the pic of Laura to about 65 %, flipped it over so that left was right and right was left, cut the face out and pasted it onto the nurse. Luckily both the nurse and Laura have dark hair, which helped in the process.
> AMurderDivine says September 04: It kinda looks like me, lol
> StuckInTheSixties says September 04: RAWRRRRR!!!!! (laughs)
> StuckInTheSixties says September 04: I don't really have the software for doing it right. This was done only with the Microsoft Paint program that came with Windows XP. It's pretty crude, but I've figured out how to squeeze a few things out of it.
> Audi says September 05: why is it all backwards????
> StuckInTheSixties says September 05: Because the original picture had her face turned the wrong way, so I had to flip it over horizontally. Then the faces lined up close enough to make the switch.

Picture #18: PHONE S3X ROOM - Give out your number and get hacked ...
> NewHat says September 13: Well unless they have a inner leg measurement of at least 6 feet it would be difficult.
> StuckInTheSixties says September 13: You're looking at the wrong room ... Perhaps there's two jokes on this PrintScreen.
> lois_lane says September 13: LOLS to both..I was wondering who else saw these rooms lols...
> badgirl_72 says September 13: hahahahahaha i wanna give out my no. 0 0 0 hahahahaha which department hahahaha two choices police or ambulance 1st choice jail cell 2nd choice straight to looney bin hahaahahahahahaha
> barnestorming_girl says September 14: E T phone home!!!!!!

> StuckInTheSixties says September 23: Well, that's sweet of you to say, lois! (laughs) I'm a long-winded blabbermouth. I'm at peace with that fact, and don't mind being made fun of about it, or making fun of myself too. I have no control over it. It's who and what I am. (shrugs) Such is life.!

Picture #22: This shows you the vague shape of a toad in the clouds, as described by GToad two pics below
> CYCLONE_FAN says September 13: cool
> StuckInTheSixties says September 13: glowingtoad found it. Toads of a feather hop together.
> Karma says September 14: Huh?
> barnestorming_girl says September 14: a toad and now red dots in the sky! and where do you live darling!!!??? (kidding) lmfao
> glowingtoad says September 14: lol that wasnt the toad i saw stucky go left , from the edge to middle of pic two big eyes and a toad mouth even nostrils or am I seeing things lol omg I can see your toad now too lmao !!!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14: I see it! I see it! It's a straight on picture of the toads face!
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14: If you go to the non-altered photo, you can see that the toad I found is a young one, still has his pollywog tail attached, with two little stubby front legs, and unfortunately, his right hind leg fell off or something (laughs). Hmm ... Actually, now I see two different toad faces ... this is getting out of hand!

Picture #23: Mt George with a toad face in the clouds
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14: Okay, I think this is the toad face she sees in the clouds ...
> Geoff says September 14: ... **whispers** They're coming
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14: No Geoff. They're just breathing hard ...
> Geoff says September 14: lmao K, you got me good on that one, sensei **Bows before the master**
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14
(laughs) It's one of the oldest arrows in my joke quiver.
> glowingtoad says September 14
lol I knew I wasn't going mental (hmm or am I ?)

Picture #24: Mt George with yet another toad face in the clouds
> StuckInTheSixties says September 14: This toad face isn't as clear, but it's there. By the way, the way to really get these cloud toads is to look at these altered pictures, see where the toad is, and then switch to the unaltered photo.
> glowingtoad says September 14: Stucky if you go to the left and slightly higher you will see the left eye of a big toad face even down to the smiley mouth lol ! gawd is this catching or what ??

Nor was I aware of her existence until the "Friend Request" appeared on my home page. (laughs) lois, the only thing that "drew me in" was the idea that you folks might get a laugh, as I did, from the name.

Very observant! There was a reason for that. I was messing around with my picture gallery, and chatting via mail at the same time; note the "Mail (1 unread)" showing. By doing that, I can click back and forth without having to exit the gallery and go into my inbox. Matter of fact, as I write this comment, I'm doing the exact same thing! I'm chatting via mail with Karma, and messing around in my photo gallery. While doing that, I noticed that you had left this comment, so I took a peek at it.

Hello Kitty Must DIE ! ! !

You know that Hello Kitty emot? I despise that fw$#@~’ thing. I really hate it. It’s repulsive. And barnstorming_girl loves to torment me with it, and with all things Hello Kitty. One night we got into a little Hello Kitty war. She began posting various Hello Kitty pictures in her Picture Gallery, and I would, as quickly as I could, copy them, modify them to express my loathing, and then post them myself.

Needing to make room in my Picture Gallery, I’ve taken this small collection of pictures and moved them over here to this blog.

Foam Born – My Contribution To That Short-Live Phenomenon

In late September of 2009, those two loveable, sexy, nutty girls StarFlavored and PeopleAreStrange both posted a very silly pair of photos paying tribute to FoamBorn (who is less loveable and sexy, but every bit as nutty as the girls).

http://www.wireclub.com/Galleries/ViewImage.aspx?ImageId=1548676

http://www.wireclub.com/Galleries/ViewImage.aspx?ImageId=1548674

Soon numerous other people began following the trend, posting their own Foam Born pictures. I posted seven.

Needing to make room in my Picture Gallery, I’ve taken my collection of Foam Born pictures and moved them over here to this blog.

More Colors Of Autumn As Reflected By Vineyards In Napa Valley (Photo Essay)

I took a short drive, in mid-October, most of the way north in Napa Valley, where I live. I had camera in hand, and the vineyards were at their peak colors as autumn descended upon us. Here are some of the photos that I took, shown in the chronological order in which they were taken. The time that each photo was taken is captioned on the photos.

Carneros: Still More Pretty Photos Of Napa Valley Vineyards

On the southern edge of Napa County is the “Carneros District” of the American Viticultural Area. Actually, this district also extends westward into Sonoma, the county next door. As a grape growing region, it’s quite unique for a number or reasons.

First, it’s geographically / topographically different than the other parts of this area. Both Napa Valley and Sonoma’s Valley Of The Moon are typical elongated valleys, with flat valley floors between ranges of hills that border each side. (One of those ranges seperates the two valleys.) Both valleys run more or less north-south. Carneros is at the side-by-side mouths of those two valleys. And it’s an area where the distinct, rugged ranges widen and smooth out into rolling hills before disappearing all together.

Most importantly, it’s an area just north of San Pablo Bay. As such, the climate is a bit cooler and moderate than the growing regions further north in the valleys and hills. It’s subjected to much more cool fog and breezes during the summer, less prone to frost and freezing in the winter. It seems to be a great place for certain varietals like Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and sparkling wines (AKA “Champagne”). The soils there are, in the traditional sense, much poorer and less fertile than those found up-valley, but ironically, while this reduces yields, it also causes certain varieties of grapes to develop intense and unique flavors.

Carneros has far fewer of the tasting rooms and tourist attractions found elsewhere in this area, although it is dominated by Domaine Carneros, a huge, super-fancy winery and tasting room with fancy-schmancy gardens and somewhat pretentious Louis XIII-style architecture. It sits alongside the main highway near the county line. Although Carneros, which used to be cattle raising area, has a much plainer, utilitarian, farmland appearance than some other parts of Napa Valley, some of the finest of the area wines are produced here.

Two Months In The Life Of A Single Cluster Of Grapes (Photo Essay)

My next-door neighbor Rugierro has a small vineyard. A few months ago, I noticed a particular cluster of his grapes that was very pretty, and I began to take photos of it. I've previously posted most of these intermittently in my Picture Gallery, but here you can much more easily see the growth and developement of this single bunch of grapes.
