Piet - lovely image of the cold front approuching.

Marilyn - glorious image of the sun in Hawaii - wow!!!

Tara - He is brave eh???? He wouldn't know what hit him!!! Ons sal met hom mors!!!! Girlpower!!!

Ronnie - careful, you could also end up in trouble... side with Piet and bear the consequinces!! The two anties will roll you too!!! LOL...

Tongue in cheek hugs to all

Gorgeous photo, evielouise!  Those clouds are just beautiful.  You bring a bit of class to this otherwise rather silly conversation!  LOL!

Honestly, RJ ... if you want to know what Carin and I are saying in Afrikaans, why don't you just ASK somebody???  If you're too afraid of us women, I'm sure your partner in crime (that's Piet, btw) would be happy to translate for you.    I have it on goood authority that he speaks a bit of the language himself!

Oh Carin, it's hard to hassle somebody who never shows up!  LOL!  I'm learning new words to tell you what I will be doing next time I see that wayward coord:  vra, ondervra, beveel, gebied, ultdaag, verdedig, vermaan.  You get the idea ... I'll ask him what's up!

It's still sunny and hot here.  It got over 70F again today!  I'm going to have to move to Alaska soon.

I take inages to work on a thumb drive and sometimes the laptop too,  it's handy for that.

Good luck this evening!

Fantastic photo, Bruce!  The sunrise colors are spectacular, and I love the reflection in the hood.

Taking pictures while driving?  Sheesh!  You and Marilyn!  LOL!  I only do it at stop lights.  * smiles like an angel *

Glad to hear you're getting settled.

I took this one just looking upward from my window. It looked like it wanted to turn nasty, and it did, but not in this town. A twister made a lot of damage just NE from Padova. Ciao, Sandra

Great shots of weather everyone!

I've been taken up with other stuff lately and had my first chance this AM to take a "weather" shot. And catch up on what all has been posted here so far.

Hoping to get a few more shots in on this forum subject, I totally missed the last two.  : (

Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed on that (even if it does make it harder to click the camera button)

: ) 

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

So where do they go when a photograph leaves you speechless? 


auntietk ( ) posted Sun, 14 June 2009 at 1:17 PM

I'm certainly enjoying everyone's weather shots!  We're about to set a record here for May/June ... I think we're on our 26th straight day without rain.  I could show you another picture of sunshine, but really ... it would look about the same as the last one.
