...on Mars:

That picture kinda gives one a sense of why the early, early seafarers and coastal mountain dwellers knew the earth was round and not flat.

Course the Christians didn't believe them or what they themselves seen ........ because the Bible didn't tell them so.

This may interest some of you.


Coming soon!

You know, in retrospect, I thought that was cutting edge. But looking back a few years, that was nothing compared to US Route 33 through Gilmer County.

Boy o' boy, you can say that again.

And that is "the cause" of Rt.5 between Glenville and Burnsville being busy, busy, busy bout any hour of the day or night.

Meanwhile, closer to home...

Not sure why I can't paste the photos.

Ohio, I think it because that is an ".htm" url and not a ".jpg".

If you want to "paste" one of them ..... then "right click" on it and then click "Save Picture As". That will store it in your Pictures Folder.

From there you will have to "Save a Copy" for "Medium Web View" and then "Host" it to a Forum post. I've never tried "Uploading" a Large Web View so it might work.

By the way, only 4 of those 12 pictures show up for me.

OOPS, I learned something. I "right" clicked on 4 of those red "X" where a picture was supposed to be, then clicked "show picture" .... then when I clicked "refresh" I can see 8 of those pictures.

Now I see all 12.

Might as well try to upload a "Large Web View".



Son of a gun, that's #12.

cheers
