KOA 2013 – Day 00 (Packing)
Our big (60 people this year) campout commences. Fun, friends, food, and filling up coolers and crates and trailers.
Pasadena Pix
Had a chance to do some walking about town here in Pasadena. Here are a few snapshots. It's a very scenic town.
We had joy, we had fun, we had kittehs in the sun
You can get sun, you can chew on carpet, and you can watch birds … all at the same time? I mean, how great is life?
A trip to Scotland, finally illustrated
Hey, it only took three months for me to get the pictures posted. That must be some kind of record.
2013-03 – Scotland
In March, Dave had a chance to travel to Glasgow on business. He also was there long enough to get a little extra touring and photography time in — on the first afternoon, walking around town and to museums … during the walks in the week to and from the office and around at lunch … and on a Friday excursion to Edinburgh
CONNNNNNNNNN!
Wow. Now I kinda want to visit Libya
Some great antiquities ruins there.
Reshared post from +In Focus
Over Libya's Coast – 24 photos – http://theatln.tc/17zahJQ – Recently, aerial photographer Jason Hawkes was on an assignment in Libya, He flew along the Mediterranean coastline, photographing Tripoli and several ancient Roman sites from above, including Sabratha and Leptis Magna. The result is a collection of images of Libya rather unlike most recent photos from the region, showing a continuity of more than 2,000 years of human habitation along the coast of North Africa. Jason was once again kind enough to share some of his images with us here.

Flickr (finally) gets some love
Yahoo has practiced benign neglect with Flickr for … well, a loooooong time. Long enough that some folks were getting worried that the site was going to get dropped or otherwise die. Which would be pretty bad, since I keep all my pictures there (well, there and on my hard drive, but …)
Today, hot off of buying Tumblr, Yahoo rolled out a revised Flickr layout. No real functionality change, I don't think but it looks … well … more contemporary, I guess. Text plays a much smaller role (indeed, I'm not quite sure how to pull up the text in some of my sets). Maps seem to play less of a role, too, which is odd. Finally, it appears the album collections layer has vanished, which would be really irksome if true.
I'll need to poke at it later. I think it's nice that Yahoo is doing something with the site, but I'm not sure what they're doing is what I want done.

Flickr Gets A Makeover — It’s Been Supersized And Instagrammed
It wasn’t that long ago that Yahoo stood accused of letting Flickr decay beyond repair.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the grid. Here’s what’s new on your Flickr account:

Irises!
It's that time of year here in Denver, and here are the first of the crop. Glad my folks are visiting next week, as they should get to see some of the show.
Lazy Saturday
Daffodils!

Kay is going as a winged … cat … dragon … black … tail … creature …
Plus, she's going out solo. As in "without parents wandering behind". But with three of her middle school buds.
They grow up so fast …

A man walks down the street wearing a hat like that
As I posted something about #NaNoWriMo, I realized its official coat of arms is topped with a Viking helm. Just like I wore to the office today as a "costume".
So here's to you, NaNos! May the fortitude of Thor, the vision of Odin, and the clever glibness of Loki be with you for the next month!
