PESOs still live in redwood grove

Once I started paying attention I realized that mushrooms had been sprouting all over my yard like, well they were popping up like something. Unfortunately I didn’t start paying attention until after most of them were past their prime. I rather liked this scene:

I looked at a map - about a 50km drive along the river? Rather bleak at this time of the year. Must be magic in Spring. No safe walks like that around here. Kruger is our solitude but we have to stay in the car. Alan C On 19-Jan-21 12:17 AM, Rick Womer wrote: Feeling restless yesterday, we

Feeling restless yesterday, we drove to a park outside Wilmington, DE — the farthest we have driven since August — and took a 3-mile walk. Herewith a few photos. https://rickwomer.smugmug.com/2021/January-2021/Winter-Walk/ (K-5, FA 28) Rick -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net

I'm always amazed at how everyone got all dressed up in that era, through the 1950s. Today, t-shirts, shorts, and sandals are accepted in church and at the opera, as well as on the streets. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Mon,

Of course not. But cars will always be needed in more rural areas. Of course they can and will be electric for the most part. Paul > On Jan 18, 2021, at 8:00 AM, Bob Pdml wrote: > > That’s correct, but we can have sewers without cars and we don’t have to go > back to horses. We don’t have

Of course the real problem is overpopulation - from 1.5b in 1890 to 7.8b today - a five-fold increase in 130 years. Perfect for pandemics. Alan C On 18-Jan-21 02:59 PM, Bob Pdml wrote: That’s correct, but we can have sewers without cars and we don’t have to go back to horses. We don’t have

That’s correct, but we can have sewers without cars and we don’t have to go back to horses. We don’t have to throw all improvements overboard in order to get rid of cars. > On 18 Jan 2021, at 12:24, Paul Stenquist wrote: > > I agree: Nineteenth century photos are charming. Of course what

I agree: Nineteenth century photos are charming. Of course what doesn’t register is the raw sewage coursing through the streets, the mountains of horse dung and the accompanying smells and health issues. Those times make for a pretty picture but life was difficult. Paul > On Jan 18, 2021, at

Fascinating. Whenever I see photos from that period I can’t help noticing how beautiful the towns look without motor vehicles and all the accompanying street furniture they bring with them, and also how people make use of the public space which cars now dominate. > On 18 Jan 2021, at 08:07,

Cool indeed! It seems many of the subjects acknowledged (were aware of) the photographer but had no idea they were being photographed. "Un-bustable Carl"? On 18-Jan-21 10:06 AM, Larry Colen wrote: The URL pretty much says it, but the photos are cool
