Over a year ago I commented on this photo from 1970 on flickr. I thought the emotion and happiness really came through and felt it was just a great photo of a very pretty girl:

A few days ago the woman in the picture apparently found it online and commented on it. This is her today:


40 years difference. Pretty amazing.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but I recently caught an episode of From the Edge with Peter Lik on the Weather Channel. Entertaining show about him going out to get his shots.

Boo on that. Did it leave a giant mess of the city or is there enough wind following it to blow things clean again? Do you guys get that kind of thing often?


/20 questions.

EVERYTHING is coated in orange dust. It looks like a New Jersey Tan explosion.

I just used the blower to clear off my driveway and walkway...

Must.Wash.Everything.

I am hoping for a nice rain to wash it all away, but more likely we will get a sprinkle that will just further cake it on to everything, then a nice breeze to dry it in place.

That dust storm is called a haboob (<--clicky), and they happen a couple of times a summer at the start of our monsoon season around this time of year.

You said boob.


I know, I'm mature. Thanks for the info - that sounds fairly awful. Hope you get a big rain and not a little one.
