Catching Up. . .

Ah, with dead computers, tons of planting, work and all the rest I'm getting very behind on this blog business--hope to correct that soon--obviously there's a lot going on over at the forum.

Besides, it's been a source of unending amusement to see the responses to the last photo. I've received a lot of those from people thinking my "toast" to nature was demeaning and off topic, and thought it shows that at the core I'm really not in touch with nature at all, but rather full of myself. Not one of these keen observers of nature saw the "big honking preying mantis" which, of course, is the core context of this humorous photo. . .

Actually, I try to keep as much nature out of my little cabin and out from under my fingernails as I can. I got all the "oneness" I can handle. . .

Anyway, updates later. There's a lot of them.
