Yup, I can see it from the end of the block. If I walk up the hill about 7 blocks, I get the view in that series of pics.

It's clear tonight, and I've got high hopes for lava fountains.

Well the mag 7 earthquake that has devastated Haiti came through here as a mag 4 - so swinging lights and a slopping over pool. As the island has had a month of torrential rain - poor Haiti will be in a terrible state. I have emailed my contact with UMISTA but I don't expect to hear from him for a while as he will be BUSY! They don't need or deserve this!

OOps - sorry for the thread hijack! my bad!

It's not visible tonight. DAGNABIT.

Pauly, I'm not even remotely worried. It's too far away to do more than rain a bit of light ash on me, and even if it really blows and starts throwing chunks of rock or lava, I'll only feel the seismic effects as earthquakes of 4.0 magnitude or smaller. All that does here is rattle the windows and freak out the cat.

The main plants in the top photo are Anthuriums from Sect. Belolonchum. I want to say that it's A. longilobum but I'm truly not sure. There are also a couple of species of Philodendron lurking in the background. The shot was taken in Mindo, which is a cloud forest in Northern Ecuador, at an elevation of about 1500 m.

The bottom plant is a Philodendron, I think P. selloum - I just love the way the light plays through the leaves. This shot is from Mera, which is a transitional forest in Central Ecuador, at an elevation of about 1800 m.

So to answer your question more simply, they're a couple of my native Aroids (EEs).

Here is a dog that I rescued from the shelter in her new home resting peacefully on her bed. I played with the photo for effect.

Chocobolitas, a type of cookie that I make in gigantic quantities about once a week. They contain no fewer than five different presentations and types of chocolate; if white choc were available here without rice crisps in it, they'd use six.

The Banana bar in Amsterdam. For those who might be offended by artwork containing some female nudity I blacked "those" areas.
