I want to make an apology. I am sorry about posting in the middle of @OwnThatKinkGirl 's posts last night and to @saddlebum66 for doing the same this morning. It's all very well me moaning that I am being interrupted, but it is not acceptable for me to do exactly that. I am very sorry.

I am very lucky, I am here again, caught up with the thread and feel a little better, mentally. A lot of you don't know how much another's pain upsets me. I am lucky enough to have really strong, loving people around me, keeping me focused on living well and happy. In recent years things have improved for me. I am no longer alone, but my friend is having the same things taken away and that is upsetting. I don't expect sympathy or anything, but please spare a thought for those who suffer.

Thank you, all. xxxxx

That is so kind of you to say. The first thing I thought was simply this. "I'm happy she's posting anything bearing in mind the tragedy she mentioned and the message in it." And then, "If I decide to a fussy bitch over it (I wasn't), I'd better get bigger things to worry about."

I'm new here in this thread which you created and that's been going for years. I am fortunate enough to be welcomed, corrected when needed (thanks you two) and hope what I post is appreciated.

For those who prefer shorter responses: No prob.

Cheers.
 
And without going into a big story, this photo was taken in the middle of a critical moment in my life even though I didn't know it yet. The colors in the sky were so rich with oranges, purples and greens as I drove into a thunderstorm that I had to stop on the highway and take the shot. Even so, the camera couldn't pick up the vibrant colors that I saw. There was a hint to me that a major point of my life was crossed and the next had begun. Almost as if it was a gift from the universe. Maybe one day, I'll rework it in a full size image. Hope this can pick up any spirits who might need it.

Indeed it is. Southern Africa is a complete growth market for termite exterminators! Step 3? Profit.

I think I may have posted one shot a few days ago where a termite mound was built around a short tree. It's off. Ya, they are eating the wood, but they also defend the tree from other bugs and the tree doesn't die. It's this odd relationship. Maybe termites are running a Mafia style protection racket and we never got the memo?

Lemmie find it.

Well, maybe I didn't post it. No matter. Here it is. What a nice little sunscreen for the termites.
Now I guess we know why most houses in Africa aren't made of wood! If I was prepared, I'd have put a little tropical cocktail drink umbrella on the top deck of the mound, but sadly I was remiss in my duties.

It wasn't uncommon, but that hunter wasn't a Soldier. Its one reason though, why a Plains Rifle, like a Hawken, was shorter-barrelled than a Kentucky-Pennsylvania Rifle....What this bo is doin', the Long Rifle isn't possible for. Riding a Buffalo Horse, at speed is....exhilarating. Riding it in among a herd of 2000 lb Buffs would have been.....terrifying. Single shot Rifles, were actually a handicap, compared to a Buffalo Lance, or a Hunting Bow...
But they all brought the hump home for supper
