Tioga river sluice wash out
Category: weather

A took this picture yesterday of a spot on near the headwaters of the Tioga by County Bridge.

Approximately where the lat-long marker is:

It's DCNR land so it's unlikely that the sluice will be replaced. The other end of the path also has sluices washed out. We get back there with A's 4wd F150 but it's rough.

I have a neat video of a road and its sluice pipe being washed way in Broome County, NY, but it looks like it's in icky FB format and I can't share outside. My favorite amusement park, Knoebel's Grove in Elysburg, PA, has been hit pretty hard but they've always bounced back from flooding. You can see their pix here

Thanks! That's so cool! Looking forward to the automatic tool.

I added it.

heidi - 09/09/11 14:43
Yes, please!

After a little work I figured out how to add facebook videos. Do you want me to add it for you? I will be something to do to it automatically later.

More random silly shots
Category: friends

Carcassonne with the piggies & hydrants expansion; Ecoey; the wine that Uncle Dudley keeps in her fridge is not nearly the quality of wine I've been drinking lately, including some excellent homemade zinfandel and muscata (maybe).

A couple shots from Friday night's gallery walk by Erin & Aurora - I love that flamingo. (e:heidi,54913)

Photobooth pix from the wedding (e:heidi,54937) A & me, A's dad & me.

I got a protest email from Uncle Dudley this morning about me making fun of her boxowine. Now she wants me to bring home some lovely vintages slung on a donkey, and I'm not allowed to use her donkey (e:heidi,48848).

I was really impressed with the quality of the pics - great color and lighting. The pix popped out of the printer really quickly. Having it at an (e:strip) party would be a blast! This company had some hats, boas, sunglasses & stuff available but hmm... (e:peeps) don't need that ;-)

I love the photo booth pics. We should have a photo booth setup at one of our parties.

(e:metalpeter) - the guitar is at Buffalo Big Print - I definitely recommend going. This guy's stuff is funny & interesting.

(e:tinypliny) - it's in front of Theater of Youth. There are at least two beautiful sidewalk drawings.

The best gallery of the night was Casa d'Arte on Elmwood.

tinypliny - 09/03/11 10:56
yeah - I really like that frog-cupcake pool! Where is it?

metalpeter - 09/03/11 10:50
what a cool guitar and love the sidewalk art...

What do you call someone who loves art?

Hmmmm... Not what we were expecting.

I think they in the first one not to use Pegoritives (sorry can't spell and spell checker can't find) Don't get the Difference between Fagot and Queer... You can be straight and queer ... In fact I've even heard someone use a term about being Musical Queer or something.... They where saying that this person who is a friend of theirs loves musicals and sees them all an it is like a big to do... Glee is great but yeah it is a little queer and so is loving art if you hate like football and love Soccer...HA I like musicals (some at least), Art not just flowers either or that sorry but dumb abstract stuff... Ok a kid I get it you don't have the skills yet to make what you see in your mind look like how you want it to look but saying this is a tree in the wind but it isn't the tree or the wind the colors are the colors of light we can't see or something like that..... Ok lost my point I'll shut up Now....
