Changing the Battery, What Could Be Easier?

The man who takes care of the yard for us used to be a mechanic. I paid him to do it for me. But he didn’t know how difficult it would be. The battery is located under the car!  You can’t reach it from under the hood even if you take apart the hardware.  He had to jack up the car in front, b ut still could not get to it.   So he removed the front wheel and crawled under. There was still not much room. By squeezing his hand into the small space he finally got to the battery. The driveway was filled with the tools he used.  A 20 minute job took about an hour. He’d never seen such a thing. We had a good laugh and wondered what the designer was thinking. The engine runs like new, very quiet Here's a video I found that explains it better: The video seems not to work for me so here's the link.

My Brother Anthony's Birthday

Oxalis Triangularis Also called False Shamrock or Purple Shamrock   My brother loves his houseplants. He even keeps a list to grow the ones that are safe for his location. So I bought a wooden potted set with the shamrocks already planted and ready to grow. This was great because he just had surgery on his right hand and it would be difficult to work with soil.  I also bought one for myself. I took these photographs a few years ago.  My daughter bought them for me after I admired hers. I was able to get some n ice shots of its flowers. Here is a closeup of the tiny flowers.

Halloween is Almost Here (from an earlier post)

I set up this photo from a miniature mask and the reflection of another mask in a mirrored ornament. I used red plastic to get the red eyes. You have to click on some pop down links to get to the final location. I don't know why, something new. Some links are intense! Full screen & sound are often better.
