Am, again, playing around with the layout of this blog. Turns out there is a way to offer subscriptions so when i create a new post, you'd receive an email notifying you ... but i don't seem to be able to learn how to install that app. Sigh, i'm fairly good with certain kinda tech-stuff — all things related to cameras, etc., but not so with codes et al. Well, i'll just continue to trundle along with the way this is.
Recently, three days ago, we returned from a three week trip to the mid-west: Chicago, Milwaukee, Green Bay which was a good venture as those things go although, for me, there were far too many words being thrown at my ears. Glad to be back to the quiet of the mountains.
I do have a good amount of photographs i want to post but haven't put them into the format that allows them to be posted ... another day or so.
Here's one i like:
From the Circus Museum in Baraboo, WI where the Ringling Bros started out. A most interesting history of not only the Ringling Bros but also many other circuses.
A clown car and i couldn't find where it said how many got into this car.
Below is the entrance to the Cave of the Mound: a creation of the glaciers that pushed their way southward many eons ago. It was a very interesting tour-
Often called "soda straws" as they are hollow from the water draining thru them; one of many types of stalactites.
Instead of turning into a stalagmite, this became an 'egg' like form.
The two images below were a single room viewed from holes blasted thru the wall so we could look inside. The cave was so filled with stalagmite and stalagmites that it couldn't be entered with breaking many of them ... so they blasted a couple windows into the cave wall and that's what we're look thru. You can see the edges of the opening about the edges of the photograph.
We were moving much too fast for the kind of photography i wanted to do as the angle and frame size is important to really give a sense of the size and forms of the cave.
