I have been blessed. Very nice there. They drive on the opposite side of the street. The disorientation makes you just slow down and relax. The best day: saw and photographed a blue iguana (200-400 in existence), dove for Conch, fought off a moray eel 3 feet away, and feed 30 stingrays by hand. Now back to reality doing tax accounting! I hate year end.

Your right. But I will never forget the four foot eel coming after me for food. But i will quickly forget 65 hours of year end tax accounting. One memory challenges all my basic comfort zones in a good way, the other, is a reminder of the burden placed on me that does not need to be. The joy of freedom is risk/reward. period. The other is a burden that tears down my business and creates in me a hugely negative outlook, and really honestly no motivation to hire anyone.

:up: What if we made NYS in ruins a graduated theme on this? Gotta love the struggle between man made structures and nature.

Love pics of abandoned, falling apart structures left to the forces of nature.yeah?

I do have to resurrect that project... rethinking it now. I do think it needs to be based more on art, inspired by Kelly's capture, than data (like NYFalls).
