Acme Melon Moleculizer!! She's not the prettiest thing I've ever seen but certainly one of the most original and hysterical things I've seen in a long time!! The melon in mid air is perfect!!

Have you thought about painting her pink? LoL!!!!

House on the Columbia Day 25

SPOKANE -- It's not often the United States serves as a dumping ground for a foreign factory, but that is happening in the remote northeast corner of Washington. The Environmental Protection Agency is trying to force a Canadian company to clean up decades of toxic smelter wastes that have flowed down the Columbia River into Lake Roosevelt in the United States.

The metals flow down the river into Lake Roosevelt. The reservoir is a national recreation area used by 1 million boaters, swimmers and fishers each year. (this same water ends up in the reservoir 10 miles from this image)

Smelter operations have dumped an estimated 10 million to 20 million tons of slag into the river. Slag is a smelting byproduct that contains lead, arsenic and mercury.

For starters....then add in apple pesticides, herbicides and then go on down river to Hanford...oh boy...

My Backyard this Morning Day 26

I could get a ticket for feeding the deer , but I seriously doubt I would. It interferes with their migratory instincts, it encourages a horrible disease called 'wasting disease' which is a variant of Mad Cow Disease and makes my neighbors angry at me.

They ate my strawberries, all my ground cover perennials and trimmed back every tree and shrub I have. I'm raising the fence this summer because I'm putting in a vegetable garden.

The snow is so high the deer are walking over my fence. They are sleeping in the shade of a huge Crabapple tree that shields the snow from falling underneath.

One bad thing....where there's deer there's cougars and it would not surprise me to have a cougar kill a baby under my back porch.

unreal...

Sorry you can't see the hilltops...I took this image going 50 mph. I held the camera with my right hand and clicked after hearing the auto focus lock into place.

Once again, I'm a good driver and never put anyone in harm's way. There aren't many places to pull over or I would.

I got my username from the road I lived on for 9 years! I lived beside Twisp River and you could hear the roar of the river, it sounded like a freeway it was so loud.
