Pic Post
page numbers on the other one are messed up so why not.
i went on a hike today |
yo JB looks cool where you are. so much different than florida, for sure. you think you'll ever come back here?
i closed the old pic thread. |
It's so different from Florida. I miss the ocean for sure, but the mountains are a profoundly different type of beautiful.
I was also sick of Central Florida. So much bad shit happened to me in Orlando that I couldn't even look at the landscape without reliving the humiliation and embarrassment. And since most of Florida is just busy roads with littered with the same 50 or so retail chains, even new places feel like the same shitty old ones. I think I'd be happy just about anywhere that doesn't resemble Florida. I will probably go back at some point though. One of our things is that we wanna live in a trailer in the keys. |
I know your wife moved out there with you recently, that's really nice.
I've only seen any kind of mountain-y area once or twice, but not real mountains like in Colorado. I think I'd like it better than the ocean. I don't really care for the ocean that much, believe it or not |

I really want to go to Florida just to visit but for the time being avoiding due to wife's concern about Zika |
Tell us about the plants and geology you saw on your hike
|
yucca grows wildly which is pretty cool.
|
I washed and waxed my car today. The planter is coming along nicely. Inexplicably someone moved it a little. I wish they wouldn't
|

Kinda in love with that pic, John. Post more if you can. I want to know what's blooming behind you. I want to know what that rock is. What species of pine those are. And snow oh geez.

BR, your hairs fucking dope man! how long did it take you to grow out with the dreads and all?

Mike thinks Nougat is funny when she sleeps like this. She is almost 9 |
newcomb's says it covers only northeastern and north central america. are the audubon guides suitable in your opinion?
|
Newcomb's is best suited for east of the Rockies it's true, but there are overlapping species as well as weedy species with a distribution throughout nearly all the contiguous states. If you can get a copy for a quarter then it's always good to keep in your arsenal. Audubon has field guides for just about everything and usually a western/eastern and sometimes more regional than that. I have not used much other than their eastern tree guide (fine, but lacking in taxonomic knowledge) and their wildflower, tree, and bird apps.
|
I started this crazy plant love with trees and the Audubon tree guide so YES :)
Have a great time!! I'm so excited for you. Everyone should know just a little bit more at the very least about their fellow earth organisms: the plants. |
is there a prevailing preference on the board for whether the pics posted in pic post threads contain people (presumably including the poster) as the subject or things/places as the subject?
|
bread regal's initial photo does both
|
maybe there is no preference. i'll look for some of each
|
also photobucket is pretty bad now with so many ads and i can hardly get my uploads to work -- wht do you guys use to host photos?
|
this is a common site in and near my neighborhood. this picture is actually super tame but i'm not about to take a photo of the super dense areas of tent after tent together taking up sidewalks and part of the street near the freeway. the homeless problem is quite serious. needles like the one here are always laying around, as are used condoms. a few blocks away last month, one woman set another woman on fire while she was sleeping. this city is fucking gross so i often go outside the city hiking to get away from the mess here's one view from the hike the wildflowers were in full bloom recently so here are some ones i noticed. i usually time myself on the hike and try to beat my time, but on this day i had to slow down and notice the flowers, it was really something |
