Geezers ... What Next???

Posted by MontereyJohn (Salinas, California, United States) on 1 June 2009 in Transportation and Portfolio.

First I trashed my photo inventory. Then my Vista hard drive crashed (fortunately my XP HD is just fine). Finally, our intrepid neighbor cut the phone lines on Saturday disrupting our DSL until just a few minutes ago. Arrrrgh!

Well, anyway, here is an image to express how I feel about getting back up and running.

I'll try to get around and visit some of fellow bloggers today.

Thanks for dropping by and sharing in the joy I take in this art of photography. Enjoy your visit, and if you have any comments or useful criticisms, please feel free to share them.

A beautiful image to start off a new day! I am glad at least that you are back up and running - this image had wonderful clarity and the red against the sky is wonderful!

Some weeks are like that. The photo is awesome and a great visual for your thought -- bit of an uphill battle?

Glad things are maybe finally looking up. Sorry couldn't resist the pun. Great image - the colors are striking and I can almost hear the roar of the little plane's engine as it climbs higher and higher...

YIKES..sounds like a run of bad luck...sorry to hear it.

At any rate this is fantastic. Love those bold blues and the red...just wonderful.

What a shot!! And just think - we might not have seen this if you hadn't had such frustrating events enter your life! Unlucky you, lucky us! :-)

Gotta love technology. Where would we be without it? :)

I love the shot and colors. I was looking at this the other day (forgive me for not commenting) but I had a chuckle on the caption you wrote.
More humorous now then when it happened. Hope it is all sorted out by now.
