The new monitor isn't such a dog after all. I had to buy a new video card because I couldn't get near to the resolution of the new screen. I installed the card and it took care of the majority of the grayscale problem, along with allowing full resolution. I am much happier today.
After nearly three months, I've finally about figured out how to get some decent photos from the new Pentax.

Went over to the church in my old home community this afternoon and took photos, and for some reason, I always get one or two decent shots. Besides, it gives me a chance to talk to my long-gone relatives while there. They always give good advice when I ask for it, and hardly ever tell me what a sorry jackass I am. They probably talk about me behind my back, though.

Blackberries will be ripe in another week or so, and raspberries are ready to pick right now. Another year without enough knee stability to allow me to go picking. I sure miss it, along with the cobblers and dumplings Carolyn used to make.

The Rhododendron Festival is happening on and around the Roan this weekend. I may try to drive up there Monday after the weekend crowds have departed. I'd love to get some pictures in the gardens. The Roan is a fickle place, with any kind of weather one can imagine liable to happen there at anytime.

Happy evening everyone!

One of my favorites, too. This is from the "cake-in-the-face" part.
