Been Rainin'

I asked Daniel if he stocked fish in the pond in the front yard.
The whole yard looks like this ...
kind of big on excessive water ... and flood warning signs.
Did I mention the big winds the shook the house in the middle of the night? And the Crack! or Popping sound so loud that my wife and the neighbor both thought a tree had snapped and gone down.
Course somehow or other the cable and high speed internet was knocked out. We went to WalMart in Ozark ... it was closed due to power outage. Some line fried or was knocked out and took half of Ozark with it. Had to turn around and drive 20 miles to the Big City.

"No-Go Day"

The yard is just rolling in water ...
One of those kind of days when you really don't want to go outside.
May as well wear Crocs or plastic shoes ...
and plan to take your shoes off when you get where you are going.
This water is several inches deep.

I believe I mentioned the Christmas tree getting soaked ...
When it stops raining ... we'll dump the bucket.
No apparent progress yet on decorating ...

Winter Moon

The moon was up there in the sky ...
there was a clear space all around it ...
and there was a circular white ring around the clear space.

I couldn't seem to capture the ring ...
so I zoomed out to capture the moon ...
amongst the bare tree branches.

Of the winter night.

Slow start on Christmas Decorating

This is our Christmas tree ... strangely enough, it's still alive
It's been sitting out in the front yard since last Christmas.
Still in the same little pot we bought it in at WalMart last year.
But it kept blowing over, so we set the pot inside this yellow bucket ... then after it rains, we have to go out, take the pot out of the bucket, dump all the water out of the bucket, and let the pot drain.
That's all we've done for the tree ... no idea why it isn't dead.
We have a bag of tiny ornaments for it ... sitting on the dining room table ... maybe they will get together with the tree one of these days ...

Phishing in the Name of Wells Fargo

I received this email today ...

When I clicked on the "sign in to online banking" link

It takes me to the following page that looks very much like the Wells Fargo page ... Except the address is: http://lasvegascasinomania.com/includes/rss-cache/online.wellsfargo/cgi-bin2/session.cgisessargs=9_oEBq3TP8Cht0ld3bwG1REGkrE5tOwk/
NOT
http://www.wellsfargo.com

I did an email reply and received this back:

"A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Security.WellsFargo.com@host3.ksasun.com

SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO::

host host3.ksasun.com [67.228.164.206]:

Note in the image above that the Phishing address is actually someplace in Moscow, Russia.

Be very careful as to what you respond to ...
