I was looking at a certain Usenet binary group where a discussion
developed about a photo. The posters were wondering about the subject so
I looked it up. Then I wondered why *they* didn't. They are mystified by
something that can be found quite easily. There are also several videos
of the subject. It was a lot easier to research than an unknown insect.

Betty submitted this idea :
Sis told me the icicles were building up well down in the hollow. Next
time I'm out I will swing by there I think.

Maybe I will find some mystery something around there, who knows.

Sounds good, I was wondering about the tree and the icicles. It's been a
different weather pattern from the time the hollow icicles were so
spectacular, but they are always amazing. The scenery in your two BB
videos is good too.

I looked at the angel you found, and remembered what you said about
'found object' art. That little cement bird was cute too, but neither
match the monkey and acorn. I hope you do find something unusual.

Betty has brought this to us :
Next time I'm out will be this weekend I suspect.

The weekend is almost here. Maybe you will get some good icicle photos,
or some other photo subject. I saw a couple of miniature horses the last
time I was out, but didn't have my camera or a place to pull over. There
are no shoulders on the roads up here.

Betty used his or her keyboard to write :
None here either in the winter -- when there is snow.

I started to wonder what people do if they have car trouble, like a flat
tire. Seems dangerous to pull over on ground that slants into a ditch,
more so to be changing a tire on the road.

On an up note ... the Gilsum Surry land purchase is moving forward. That
was good to read.

Betty formulated on Saturday :
That's good to hear. It is a bright sunny day outside, it's still a
little cool for walking when the wind blows though.

It's sunny here too, and in the forties this morning. That's too cool
for *me* to go outside, unless I have to. If it's windy the temperature
*does* seem colder, so I can understand not going for a walk.

I've been trying to find out about character encoding in my news reader,
I've gotten myself into another confusing mystery. I prefer other kinds
of puzzles. [g]
