It rained most of the night and now it feels like fall again for this Saturday morning coffee muses.
The property behind mine lays along Mustang Bayou. With all of the rain we have had this summer, the grass had grown quite tall. This week my neighbor spent a day on his big green machine mowing the right of way visible from the back porch. Now, once again, the…

After fighting through the issues this week after upgrading WordPress I decided it was time to speed up the opening of these pages...At least as much as I can living here on GoDaddy with all of the other websites. Gone are the picture badges for my other sites. Gone are…
After staying up late watching "Australia" last night, I woke up early thanks to an alarm clock reset to wake my wife on Saturday that I forgot to set back to a normal wakeup call. I started reactivating plugins this morning until the "white screen of death" as Cali called…
Is it time to move my blog hosting to another provider? Intermittent problems with pulling up back-end pages in my blogs is beginning to get to me. For months I have had problems with getting the "Add New Post" page to open over at North Carolina Mountain Dreams...Sometimes it opened…
It was time for a bug fix upgrade yesterday. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have so many places to run the "automatic upgrade". And every upgrade of WP brings with it a number of rolling plugin upgrade. It seems that each upgrade causes an unforeseen problem with…

Now this cannot be the only problem because Virginia Mountain Dreams still works fine...Both blogs use…

I took myself and a glass of Zin out into the backyard to watch the evening light show...The fireflies were a bit subdued, but a pleasure to watch and wander once again through memories of the evenings when I was growing up and "lightning bugs" were everywhere.
Well I finally took the plunge and upgraded my WordPress to the latest version. If you should happen to hit any glitches, please...please let me know... It looks like I'll be spending a little time figuring out what's happening.

This image caught my eye yesterday so I dropped it here. What it reminded me of was a Mandelbrot Fractal like the ones I used to spend hours generating and exploring back a decade ago or more. The mathematics and graphics were so intensive on those old 286 and 386…
I got involved in a WordPress Upgrade this morning along with trying to find some answers to some questions Fred had with his migration to WordPress over the weekend. I'll try to post something this afternoon after my radiation shake and bake and Dr. musings...Later Oh, If ya really miss…
