Thank you Michele! April 19 was a spectacular atmospheric morning. I took lots of photos. Hood has been lost in the smoke and clouds recently… 🌲💛🏔️

Why are you burning grasshoppers?

robertjeff57-58.bsky.social · 1 · 1d ago

Brilliant shot

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

Thank you Robert. I haven’t seen Hood in a few days… he’s lost in the smoke/clouds. 💛🏔️

robertjeff57-58.bsky.social · 1 · 1d ago

Wow I think last time you said 30% under control Scary times

Mary · 2 · 1d ago

It was 30% then it dropped to 20 now back to 30. The firefighters are making progress though. Some concerns about weather next week. We still have a long way to go… 🌲🌲🏔️

Stay safe

I’m heartbroken that Lookout Mountain burned

So sad regarding the fires. Poor Mama Earth. Why can't we respect her, ever? One day she will revolt after we have depleted and off balanced everything inside of her, everything around her, and put so much shit on her. We're really stupid.

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

Greed! Profits before planet Earth! Shortsightedness! We each need to do our part though… 🫶🏻💔🥀

Hello Mary. I am glad that the front has moved towards the enemy. And the photograph is very good, especially in the light that falls on its side and in the light of recent events😘❤️

Mary · 1 · 18h ago

Hello Plan. This photo is from April… Hood looks nothing like this now. I just read containment of Grasshopper is at 37% tonight! 🥂♥️😘

Mary, those subtle shades are stunning!☺️

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

Thank you Brock! I love this group of atmospheric photos from April 19. I’ve posted several and will probably post a few more, lol. Have a great weekend. 💛🌻🫶🏻

Lovely! Thank you - hope your weekend is nice!

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

Thank you! Perfect gardening weather. 🌻🌻🌻

Brock’s Photographic Journey · 1 · 1d ago

…or deck reinforcing weather!😊

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

I put composite decks in 18 months ago… I can’t maintain cedar decks anymore. Good luck! 🌻

Brock’s Photographic Journey · 1 · 1d ago

I’m strengthening for a hot tub(!). And switching the cedar to composite as well. Do you like the composite you chose?

Mary · 1 · 1d ago

I do… I went with TimberTech. They had a better warranty on the product I selected compared to Trex. I think both are good though.

Brock’s Photographic Journey · 1 · 1d ago

I like the look of the TimberTech better…
