Don, you are not a fair weather rider! Good for you!
Thanks for all the work you do on the site and also
paying the cost of it!
Looks like the thunderhead is done, nice warm glow from the golden hour!
Waterfall is gorgeous!
Thanks Peter!
Another glowing sunrise! Nice!
Dave the smashed potato recipe sounds amazing!
Good to see you Pete!

Thanks Rich.
Thee smashed potato details are just my basic starting point, and I usually add to it.
Variations include some variety of shredded cheese, scallions sliced diagonally or diced jalapenos, and maybe some variety of salsa. I guess I could also addchorizo or other spicy sausage.
Speaking of salsa, my local grocery store has finally started carrying a salsa that is extremely hot - I always keep some in the fridge.
Speaking of hot, I'm reminded of a time when I was managing a fast food restaurant in San Ysidro, less than a mile from the border with Mexico. I was the only Anglo there. One day some of the employees were teasing me about how gringos couldn't handle not Mexican food. Our restaurant sold small cups of 5 or 6 jalapenos and they bet me that I couldn't eat all 6 of them.
Well, I ate all six and happily collected around $50 from those who bet against me.
But I'll admit that I couldn't match them on one point - after eating the jalapenos they would drink the very spicy juice that covered the peppers in the small cups. I couldn't do that, but fortunately that wasn't part of the bet.

I actually log in just about every day, mainly to look at the pics (I don't much read the content!). I'm not much of a socialiser. For some time I started posting my club entries in my own area in an attempt to do at least some contribution. But recently, I stopped doing that because it didn't seem to be worth the effort.
I occasionally have a look at Wet Canvas. Nothing happening on the photographic department there, but it would be nice if it became what it used to be! Nostalgia.

Good to see you Pete, and good to know your log in activity is "real" and not a bot.
I would not have known what the bloom was Dave, without looking at the title. Nice shot though.
I like the painting Rich. I haven't done any painting in quite some time.
MIB, very nice photo there.
