I seem to be unable to post.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Pretty much sums things up.

After the rain, another cocoon hatched, and I have a female Monarch butterfly drying off below her cocoon shell (circled in red). BTW, when the cocoons change from green to dark orange within, they are ready to hatch.

Remember the "olden days" when people would check the pay phones and vending machines for coins that someone forgot to take? I check the self-checkout stations and the CoinStop machines. OK, I'm easily amused, but here is this morning's haul from Vons.

OK, so I signed up a couple of hours ago, and confirmed my email with them, so I guess I am good to go. I'll eventually figure this out.
