Are these Pinatubo sunsets?

Are these Pinatubo sunsets?

I believe these were all before Pinatubo (1991?), but there is some deep color so perhaps some volcano in the late 70s and early 80s.

A few of them might be sometime after Mt. St. Helens, I don't know if that put enough sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere to change sunset, but???

Not a sunset pic but this is my favorite photo from Costa Rica.View attachment 17062


I picked up a Nikon D50 to document my grow and I've been enjoying learning about taking better photos. Got a couple lenses for it now. Its super old (made in 2005) but still takes great photos. Got it for a steal at $60 w/lens.

Love Costa Rica. Been there too many times to remember. I think '95 was the first time I went. Haven't been there for a while. I heard the coastal areas are all commercialized with hotels and stuff. Bummer. It was so nice like Hawaii 30 yrs earlier.

Double trouble waiting to happen.

probably actively happening since they're probably about into the teenage phase. they look like they'd give our dobie a run for his money play-wise. damn dog runs through basically every other dog we've introduced him to. too damn big.

I had a dog back in the 70s that had a really tough time at that age.
She was big and a little uncoordinated, she could bump her head and back side on opposite walls in a room at the same time.
She grew up to be the sleekest, most amazing dog ever, but she had about 3 months where I wasn't sure she wasn't a little off in the brain! She bumped into everything.

Yikes. Did they survive?

It lowered global temperatures for 2 years or so. It's amazing what major volcanoes (and minor ones, like Mt. St. Helens) can do.

Yes. And all my sister and brother in-laws homes were buried in ash too. I rebuilt my father and mother in-laws house.

Very hard to beat their best friend for loyalty.

March of 2020, a few days before full lockdown was announced flying home to BC after my fathers funeral on a Boeing 777 with only around half a dozen people on-board. Wife and I had nearly the entire back of the plane to ourselves.. strange seeing 9 seats across completely empty. Was kinda neat though just wandering around the empty plane, choosing what side had the best views. Also lucky that my father had a proper funeral followed by a proper Nova Scotia kitchen party of a wake afterwards. A week later, everyone was on lockdown.

Rocky mountains were the clearest ive ever seen them from a plane.

Ya Willow does the same. Love the little grins.

Wife hates it…but I don’t mind her in the bed as long as she’s clean and dry. She guards me when I sleep. Cute.

She keeps me busy and usually happier than when I’m alone. She’s just past 28 or 29 months. Picked up a sock fetish we’re trying to break.

Guess we’re stuck with each other now.

This sign always made me wonder.

The creek is named Paint Creek, but why the U? Is this like U-pick strawberries, but with polluting a waterway instead of getting strawberries?

The sign was mysteriously replaced by one without the "U," when all that money went out to the states during and after the pandemic.

 

[steamroller]

Had the turkeys come visit this a.m.


Counted 9 of them.
Hope the foxes don't get them.

They seem pretty happy hanging out.

Came home last week after work, and these guys were hanging out in the hood.


It will be a while before I get used to seeing sand hill cranes. I've always lived where there were herons and egrets, but these guys are big. Just waiting for a whooper now.

Sandhills can kill a dog with their beak. People hunt them and if you put a cripple on the ground it’s best to go retrieve it yourself. Your dog may not come back.

Hard to beat an English bulldog. I have had four in the course of my life. They just don’t live long enough. They are little people in dog suits. I really miss the ones I had.

It's the dinosaur instinct.

At some point, I'm sure a 4-footed critter will end up living with us again. I've found a name for it.
