Saturday Six Words and Sunday Shadow Shots February 21-22, 2015

The Friday Meanderers take a hike.... 
 
 
We drove a little past Callahan-
got to Masterson Road where we
parked our cars and walked 4 or so miles ...
 
 
The first mile and a half was uphill....
is this really meandering we asked?
 
 
Eventually the road became easier as we
crossed the East Fork of the Scott River... 

 
 
Here's a wheelbarrow waiting for spring...
 

 
A well aged fence post
 

 
They call this mesa "Lovers Leap"


Eventually we got back to our cars and
headed to the Etna Brewery for
a splendid and well earned lunch!
It was a very fun day!

Hike over Here for Six Words and
Here  more Shadow Shots!

Six Words and Sunday Shadows June 7-8, 2014

We took a break from work!
We have had our noses to the proverbial
grindstone lately- especially Russell!
He's done an awesome job replacing all
our kitchen appliances and making our
kitchen much more efficient and streamlined.
So- we drove up to Etna Brewery for
 ( 50 miles up in the mountains)
tasty ales and delicious food! It was a warm 
sunny day and I could not resist these shadows.

Looking back on the A-Z Challenge

Old Apple tree in Etna California
May 2013

A little over a month ago I heard about
the 2013 A-Z Challenge. Since I had
in the past challenged myself to produce
year long blogs "A Snap a Day" and "A Word a Day"
I knew that the A-Z Challenge would be
not only be fun, but would give me the 
opportunity to  discover new blogs and 
bloggers that otherwise I never would have.
By and large it was a good experience and
I'll participate next year!  
The rules were simple and I was a bit surprised
that some folks could not follow them.
How hard is it to comment? 
The worst offenders were the ones that had
so many ads etc on their blogs that created
in a way a "traffic jam" on my lap top.
Some of that was due to my lap top being older
and our internet service up here in the
mountains can be iffy. 
 I learned to avoid those type of blogs. 
Looking forward to following the bloggers I
"met" during the A-Z Challange.
 Enjoy your day and have a great year!

Scene in Etna California


While visiting friends in Etna I just had to
take this photo of their tool ladened garage.
