trees

I spent most yesterday pissed off. They slashed more tires in the hood going down the street we saw another 6 vehicles with two or three flats. I hope they catch these fools soon.

It was a windy and rainy day. I did get out an tried to catch the sunset light rays as they made the tree leaves look almost translucent.

I probably should have used the tripod as when I looked up the wind would cause me to tilt and then I started getting kind of dizzy.  Leaves whipping around in the wind swirling all around me – yes, Winter weather has come early.

Last night I became facinated with all the webcams that CalTrans has.  Interstate 80 was closed from from Applegate to the Nevada/Calif state line.  Looking at the Hwy with no traffic and watching the snow fall – I have no idea why this amused me so?  It usually does not snow like this and as low an elevation as it did this early in the season. Glad I have power and not snowed in.

I am such a valley whimp.

I bougth a little security camera on sale.  It came with 100ft of cable. So even if the  camera sucks the price was worth the cable alone.  When the weather calms down I will need to figure out where to mount it so that it captures the carport.  It hopefully will save me from going outside in my jammies to check on ever little noise. The area is the only one we can not see from any window or peep hole. Then I will have to route the cable and figure out where to have it enter the upstairs.

Then I will move onto coputer cards so I can store the video on a drive.

Systems are just to dang expensive so I figure why not try to create my own?

Right now I have the camera working via the television and watching Catfish sleep – sigh. I might just end up watching the trees if I can not get it mounted somewhere LOL

Tree Security!
