Server trouble… at folksites, where I have the shaman and painswitch pages, and where I put up recent pictures of the neighborhood and sometimes even pictures of my jewelry (when I haven’t been so busy writing that I neglect to make jewelry) on the susitnart pages. The trouble is: no images, not even backgrounds. It gives the sites a stark quality. Since the pictures on shaman and painswitch are just to pretty it up, and the value is all in the text, it’s no real problem. Wedding picture captions on the other site don’t do much for anyone, and I had intended to upload the new solstice sunset shots until I discovered that I was uploading them into a black hole apparently.
So, instead of that, I’ve stuck a bunch of them here on Xanga, mostly in among the text on yesterday’s blog where I wrote about the walk when I took the pics. Now I’ll get some lunch and then I will hit the books again.
Oh, one more thing: a great Alaskan business opportunity. I can only guess at which Talkeetna business is “#1″, but whatever it is, you buy it, we’ll run it for you.
P.S. It’s nearly midnight Xanga time, and I never did hit the books today. I’ve been swimming upstream (it is salmon spawning season after all) all evening, trying to comment and prop. I’ve discovered that I can do one, but not both, except in rare and exceptional cases. A few times, I went for the props, but most of you will notice that I’ve chosen to express myself rather than reward you with eProps. So sue me. I wish I had the skill to sort out the coding cockups, but this is far beyond my meager, obsolete, half-forgotten Fortran. Bye for now.

I’ve had precisely the same luck with props/comments: mostly one or the other,–not both… but I’m going to try again to force the issue here!
you can comment…or prop. but not together. (I feel like I’m talking into a black hole…hahha…I’ve been telling everyone.) I’ve just been commenting.
so…you’re wearing your auntie’s curtains, eh? cool…we should get together. I’ve got the sofa.
Enjoyed my visit! @-}-}–
I’m having no probs with props or comments (except losing one or two), but then I’m strange! It’s just that site data box…
Today was not a day for productivity.
Hi lovely lady! Hope all is well at your place. Sounds like you have been very busy, and I’m hoping to get to see those jewelry pics.
Is this one of the solstice pics?
Very lovely, hope you have a great week.
~S~ thank you for the warm welcome, I have been debating a whil to start a journal, finally got talked into it, never thought I would be spilling it on line~S~
i just want to step into this lush green forest and dissapear….wow.
i guess I missed the eprop trouble, but then I haven’t had time to comment for a bit. What is the main street business? The ad didn’t say. Oh and by the way, I read yesterday about some of the coastline trouble we “talked” about last week. Very interesting indeed. -Kristy
I don’t call mine props..I like to egrope everybody…makes it so much personal. lol
I love the pictures…soooo beautiful
To prop, or not to prop.
You nearly always deserve two … luckily I missed the aggravation end of it over the last couple of days.
I hate when Xanga screws around.

Talkeetna … ~sigh~

etc …
Thanks, Sarah, for the technical advice.
Now we can see how it works.
Kristy, neither Greyfox nor I knows which Main Street business that ad refers to. If he finds out, I’ll let you know.
I love this picture…it’s absolutely stunning.
