Not new, but I think it is funny.  I keep checking Sam’s paws because he is evolving.

Bonus:  Cmdr. Samuel Vimes and his electronic devices.

What is it doing outside?

January 31, 2013

After several days of temps in the unseasonably high 60s, it is snowing again with a 40 degree drop in temperature overnight.

Here is something else to think about – from HMS Defiant.

What am I preparing for?

Reblogged from HMS Defiant

Forecasts are great planning tools. We should make use of them and not just for planning our trips.

I’m taking sunblock 10 billion just in case this is the Virginia Cleveland forecast too.

Besides the obvious benefits of a 7:00 am yoga class sometimes I get to see something like this, as I did last Wednesday. This is Venus in the early morning sky.

new moon

And on my way home from work that evening, I saw the new moon in the old moon’s arms.  It’s a little hazy, but was still quite lovely.  The light below the moon is a Lifeflight helicopter heading for the Cleveland Clinic.
