2. Too many ts.

5. I'd not noticed that.

I find that anagram interesting in that it suggests the eschatological "abomination that makes desolate" to which Adso's Letter on the Origin and Time of the Antichrist makes reference. I chose my handle at a time when I was studying History in grad school, with an emphasis on Christian and Jewish eschatological beliefs and how they have influenced history in various times and places.

4. Gorgeous shots!

And yes I remember green Coke bottles!

[Adsos Letter]

7. Thanks!

8. The Pacific Ocean is true to its name

in these shots.

Very different from how the ocean looks on the other side of the US right now!

I remember those green coke bottles!

9. I can only imagine what you are getting back there right now.

No hurricanes out here. We get quakes and fires.

I added that part about the coke bottles after it dawned on me that not everyone here might remember them.

The green/yellow is a little too strong on the first one. I have a new laptop, and I'm seeing some difference between my two laptops and my I-phone. I'm looking for a way to determine which is closest.

10. These are great, my dear Adsos Letter!

I've seen that green out here! I do remember coke bottles but not very vividly. Thanks for the history lesson.

And I love your sunset photo. I've seen a lot like that one. Very pretty.

[Adsos Letter]

12. Thanks Peggy!

[Karadeniz]

11. I remember green coke bottles, even the small ones! Thanks for the photos!

[Adsos Letter]

13. Yes, the little 10-cent ones.

And the big ones (can't remember the size of those). Quarts?

14. Impressive photos!

And I too remember coke bottles.

Many years ago we'd walk along the beaches of Lake Superior to pick up "beach" glass. Many beautiful shades.

15. We have a place like that up in Mendocino.

Glass Beach. A 19th-century dump eroding from the bluffs overlooking the beach washes a lot of broken colored glass bits into the sea. Over time the ocean waves have created the same kinds of beach glass you speak of. Many look like semi-precious stones.
