Okay, that was a K! Have we really gotten so blasé that we don't even notice them anymore?
Yes. I guess so.

I watched this a couple of years ago, it's been popping back into my head lately.
I still think they look better than cell towers. The pine tree ones are even less noticeable. There are a few up and down the 405. There was a pine tree cell tower on Bushard or Newland that was hardly noticeable. There are a few palm tree cell towers here, but they are pretty thrashed by the wind and sun, the fronds are all weathered away.
I have a week off work right after my birthday. I'm thinking of flying to vegas.
What would you recommend for someone who has never been to vegas, doesn't care for gambling or drinking, but just want to see sights? I would be interested in seeing some type of show as well? I doubt that Todd would be able to get more than a couple days off work, though.
Any PoHo's photography buffs?
I'm looking to get a new Nikon and the main feature I'm looking for is to be able to freeze action in the crappy lighting of high school gymnasiums. I already own a few f/2.8 lenses so I'm looking for a camera body that will let me utilize those lenses in poor lighting.
Craig already gave me a recommendation and I also reached out to Colin but haven't heard back yet (I only emailed him last night) but I would love to hear more opinions.
Thanks hos
My FIL passed away this morning. He just stopped breathing. It was fast. I am on my way to the airport.
You can take the Californian out of California...but you can't take the California out of the Californian.

I think that I shall never see
a cell tower as pretty as a tree.
Sukie and Mim got a huge kick out of listening to myself, Nick and Sally talking about getting somewhere.
It was kind of funny.
Register with the Nikon website. They have a store tab. They often sell refurbs at good discount.

I hear you, but what I am getting at is that the existing electrical power plants already have concrete tubes going out into the ocean that they use for the cooling/condenser loops. They could put them there, with no additional environmental impact. Electric Beach is one of my favorite dive spots, and we "play" in the jet that is the exhaust from that tube.Well...as long as we continue to consume and grow and develop we will need more energy. There are limited sources of non-renewable energy, but harvesting the renewable energy requires an infrastructure to do it. I am interested in wave-action turbines - but what would be the response if there was 100 of them offshore?
If we're not going to figure out how to reduce our consumption (we could all take lessons from Chuck Moore) then we'll just need to put up with the things that will generate the energy we need, pretty or not.

I've posted this many times before - but I never fail to hear Sally and Mike discussing how I should get back to my hotel in Pasadena (and later in the week the Disneyland hotel). I never could convince Sally that my GPS might be able to figure out how to get me back to the hotels.
(And the one time I decided to follow Sally's directions instead of the GPS I ended up on Harbor Blvd for an eternity - drove about twice the distance and time as the GPS had me go when we went TO her house.)
