View from my front porch!
This was the view from my front porch Saturday afternoon (St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2007, about 4 p.m. EDT). It snowed Friday but as you can see Saturday was sunny and the roads and sidewalks were clear.
A couple of weeks ago I bought a new cellphone with a camera, among other fancy features that the old one didn't have, including e-mail and Internet (I could waste a LOT of time and money there). But it *doesn't* have a thingy where you can plug in a wire to a USB port*. I knew, though, there had to be a way to send the images via e-mail or IM or some such.
Sure enough, it took me nearly two weeks to figure it out, but today in one of my Yahoo accounts (not the Bibliotrope one) I found the e-mail I'd attempted to send Saturday (while watching the NCAA tournament).
Now that I know how to do this, I can post more. I have some pictures of the crocuses in my front yard (under these overgrown forsythia bushes that are trying to block the view of my neighbors' houses) and a couple of a strange-looking sky we had a week and a half ago -- it was totally clear except for some old jet contrails, which ran north/south and east/west giving the sky a stripy and even plaidlike appearance!
*Though this old computer, which runs Windows 98, doesn't do USB. It has a USB port, but the browser isn't enabled to do anything with it. I'd have to do it from work.
