A bit of a fib re the Sahara photo date. It was over a year ago.

BTW the Sahara being cold isn't unusual, it's the precipitation.

Just saw the SpaceX take off the booster and upper stages separate , booster go off, relight very brightly and then the sonic boooom!!

Rob Dawg said...

I confess to emotional reactions those few times the Shuttle generated a double sonic boom over my location.

Rob Dawg said...

Now that I think of it... I may be one of a mere handful who have heard the double boom for all four* landing sites.

* Yes, four. Just like you think every launch is listed on the STS ledger.

Why can houses stay forever in foreclosure or off market?

Its like walking through the continental divide in the Rockies.

Lots of trees, most of them dead waiting to get blown over in a wind storm.

Rob Dawg said...

Because banking regulation was suspended back in ‘06 and the banks got to liking it that way.

Rob Dawg said...

Canaveral. Edwards. White Sands. Vandenberg. What? You thought they built but never used Vandenberg?

Lawyerliz said...

Dark and gloomy here.

Rob Dawg said...

Woke to steady light rain. The best outcome. This might give the burn areas a chance to soften up and adsorb the big rain tonight. The LA stations have put reporters up on the burn streets to catch the slides.

Rob Dawg said...

Cinco. I forget. Which team are we supposed to root for?

Lawyerliz said...

Which 2 sides of what?

Lawyerliz said...

They want to kill the reporters with mud?

Lawyerliz said...

I am reading the Secret Archives of the Vatican.
It is gIvins me trees falling in the Forrest thoughts. 18 miles or so. Most of them devoid of people.
Primitive indexing. Some being destroyed by purple fungus. You could.get a million doctoral theses out of them. They desperately need to be scanned. Sure stuff involving living people should be m private. But if no one is allowed to look at them, what purpose do they serve?

Lawyerliz said...

I bet some of them have not been looked at for a thousand years.

Rob Dawg said...

The books not in the Bible?

Lawyerliz said...

Not 18 miles of them.!

Lawyerliz said...

The county can foreclose a tax.lien.

Lawyerliz said...

The county can file a line if the property gets too dilapidated, and then foreclose.

Lawyerliz said...

Lien
Nobody can fore a bank to foreclose,.or take the property back. You could file a quiet title suit, after enough years.

Rob Dawg said...

Makes me want to look over the county tax arrears list. Might be a bargain in there.

Anyway, new post. Be sure to click for the full sized image.
