Happy Hump Day, everyone.

Another of the photos I took yesterday of flowers after the rainstorms...

Morning Dave, and anyone else who joins. It will be awhile before we see flowers. But lawns are showing.

Good day friends.
Thanks, Dave, for starting our Hump Day daily.  Well, we did not get the winter mix storm reported by my daughter and I decided last night to postpone our visit to the Henry Ford Museum until tomorrow. Not a problem. 
So this morning I got up and cooked a pot of stuffed cabbage rolls, cabbage soup, and a plate of Kafta.  Hopefully, meals are covered for the rest of today and tomorrow.  It feels good that I do not have to cook until Friday and I can go out with my daughter and not worry about hurrying back home to cook for the DH.

Dave, I like that your composition has rosebuds in the image. It is a nice image. Nicely sparkles in the water droplets.

I finally downloaded the Luminar NEO that I preordered last November.  The creators of NEO live in Ukraine and are having problems over there staying online as expected.  One of the reasons that I bought this new program from SKYLUM was for AI's ability to remove power lines.  It has many other great features, like layers, dust removal, face repair, etc., that I have yet to test.  But here was the test of removing power lines.  The power lines were removed by just clicking a button.  I removed the vertical poles by using an erase tool. 

Here is the before and after. I was blown away.  It probably took 1 minute to complete both removals combined.  Wow, and is is a good job too.

edited to add one more photograph.

I just sent this photo to my daughter with the message that this will be the first thing she sees when she enters the museum tomorrow.

Quick job for the software Lorell,
Nice aircraft display. Cool!  Great colour from the red tips to the blue. You made good use of it!

Hi, Dave. Thanks for the color! It will be a while before we have roses here!
Hi, Lorell! You were industrious in the kitchen! Makes my mouth water. I've been too lazy to make cabbage rolls, but you and Steve have me wanting some!! That software sure did a good job on those power lines. Ain't technology wonderful?? Great colors in that plane, how in the world do they suspend it like that? That's lot of metal!!
Hi, Grant!!

Dave, Love the rose and the buds!

Lorell, that is an amazing removal of the pesky power lines and poles! Well worth it!

Love the DC3. Rode one of them from SD to California and back a couple of times when in the Navy.

Hi Grant.

Been quite busy the last few days. Yesterday in the afternoon I went to a premiere showing at our theater of a video made for Public TV on the Hansen Wheel and Wagon shop about 10 miles North of me. They reproduce all kinds of buggy's and stagecoach's of the 1800's. If your station shows it take a look!
Last night I attended an Elton John Tribute show at our Performing Art Center. I take short videos of our concerts and put them up on our web site. When I get done I will list the link to it. I was quite taken with his music and talent. I had not paid much attention to him but he was/is quite prolific.

Rich, you do get a lot of entertainment in your area....I like Elton John, too. I doubt they will show the Wheel and Wagon shop here....TV has changed so much, stuff I used to watch for free or on satellite tv is now something you have to buy. I don't understand all this streaming stuff and other stuff. Why can't it just be simple like it used to be. In retirement, I think I can't afford satellite tv anymore....might just turn it all off and watch the birds out the window or the fish in my pond, also out the window.

We do have a lot of things going on. I had to miss a children's choir from out of state at our church last night. Sometimes too many things going on!
Not a whole lot on TV I watch. Mostly record some programs and movies to watch later.
