Sharing an aerial view via drone of the flooding that happened yesterday in my old hometown of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. That viewpoint makes the devastation obvious. My son says waters are now starting to recede #flooding #colorado #pagosa #hotsprings #southwest #rainshowers #rainstorms #rain

A good while back, Susie ordered in some beanbags for tossing and said, now maybe you could make the (corn-hole) beanbag toss game boards. FINALLY I finished them. They have folding legs and a little different lay-out than the typical corn hole boards. #cornhole #beanbag #gameboard #beanbagtoss
Beanbag toss game board with three holes for different points... scores like football points. Smallest hole with an obstacle (Safety) adding to difficulty, an easier hole for a field-goal score, and the large opening for an extra point.  Mine are in Bronco colors because I'm a Bronco Fan.

To clarify... these are not images that I captured but shared them from information I saw from the area.

My old hometown area of Southwest Colorado is having troubles with flooding from rain showers. In all the many years I lived there, I only remember seeing anything like this once before. Hoping everybody's OK. #flooding #colorado #pagosa #lakevallecito #southwest #rainshowers #rainstorms #rain
The town park in Pagosa Springs flooded over past the picnic tables. The trees in the middle of the flood's flow are usually at the edge of the river. The Spring Inn has the therapeutic mineral spring hot pools that cascade and are situated all the way down to the San Juan River's edge are all covered over with flood waters. The is a drone captured image of the Lake Vallecito area and the flooding coming down and affecting homes and spreading across a wide area. Vallecito Lake is located between Pagosa and Durango... near Bayfield.

Near San Simeon on California's central coast is The Hearst Castle... and it is quite the sight to see! The day we went, no tours inside, but there was still a lot to see out on the grounds. #sansimeon #california #pacificcoast #hearstcastle #scenic #scenery #sightseeing #checkthisout

It's like a parking ticket compared to Trump's rap-sheet... and yet he's still able to occupy the Oval Office AND work towards being a dictator!

A year ago, this day, our cruise to Alaska stopped at port and we rode this old train up into the mountain. It was beautiful and informational on what the railroad involved there... but it was cold! Heat did no good because windows were open to keep them from fogging up. #Alaska #cruise #train #brr
Image of my selfie with the people of my train cab behind me, only I blurred out faces since maybe they didn't want in on my pic. Cold conditions might make people grumpy. LOL! Scenic train ride image up into the mountain as we took a break from being on the cruise ship. The Fall colors were beautiful.

I've done a number of jobs, here job was apartment maintenance for 16 years. I worked for a great company that provided very nice homes. Mine was a senior citizen complex. Images here on the place I took care of. #profession #myjob #goodcompany #maintenance #apartments #bigcompany #greatbenefits
Color image of the senior apartment complex I worked at for 16 years. This is the pool/spa area. Color image of the senior apartment complex I worked at for 16 years. The grounds were lush with plants, shrubs, flowers and trees. There are 20, 4 and 8 unit buildings with one and two bedroom floor plans.

Single level buildings had 4 apartment spaces, and two story building had 8.

More in the Alt description. A moving image in that despite seeing a happy family, in 8 years or so that big man would come home drunk regularly and beat (eyes swelled shut) the oldest boy and his wife. It's special because of what life could have been, but beyond tragic knowing. #oldphoto #restore
A black and white photo that I restored of my grandparents, and their sons, Joe and Gene. An image of a happy family here but would change drastically in the coming years. That older boy, Joe would grow up to be my father... a great man and wonderful dad. Restoring this image stirred up big emotions.

Alright already... for somebody who doesn't care, you're the one making noise about what I decide to do with my profile. I can complain if I want, I can delete if I want, and you can unfollow me if I annoy you so much. Not replying to this topic any more.

Part 1... watch for red hearts
picsbygeo.bsky.social
I DO practice what I say... and you do not know how to count. Still marked with red hearts, I quickly scrolled and counted no less than a dozen. You don't have to make an argument about this. I do not give pity likes, and mostly do so toy your work... not often to reposts.

As beautiful as anything is in nature, so then is the female form.

I like DOF shots, and one day I hope to go visit Spain. My DNA says that my roots originated in that area... along with my last name.

Being in climate that stays mild and sunny more of the time, the look of FALL colors happens late in the year... midway into the winter season. Taken with my Pentax W90 1/1/2013. #fallcolors #inthewintertime #leaves #colors #photography
Image of Fall but in Southern California that happens well into winter, but still beautiful colors. Image of Fall but in Southern California that happens well into winter, but still beautiful colors.

But then Samsung put great cameras in their phones, and I haven't used it much since. Not a great camera, but I did get some decent images occasionally.

From 2008 weekend shoot sessions with Stacey, two fully clothed, expressive B&W images that shouldn't get me any labels, but we will see. She liked giving the dramatic looks, & it looked great. #models #glamour #expressive #myphotography #pentax #photoshoot #picsbygeo #b&w #blackandwhite #face #pose
A black and white image of a model posing in a white dress in a semi-crouched position and with an expressive look.  From shoot session in my apartment home at that time.

Gained experience making good, strong boxes as a cabinetmaker. I made a lot of our equipment cases and speakers for the band and for my studio. I also modify guitar amp cabinets. #craftsman #woodworker #builder #create #design #DIY #myself #ibuiltthis #buildit #case #speakers #custom #ibuildstuff
Image of compact, lower power, high range satellite speakers for a bass enclosure. A converted 20 watt Crate guitar amp to a mini stack amp that sounds very good for its size. My preferred side fill vocal monitor when playing in the band. I also built a set of four wedge stage monitors. An equipment case I built to hold a 2 rack-space powered PA head, and a single rack-space processor.
