Come and look at how I got this first photo at last, and there are a few others of the mountains, as they are my fortune tellers.
Early this morning we had a meeting with some hive friends and the action took place after the meeting.
We had an interesting discussion with our friends and we at last met his beautiful girlfriend. Oh yes, she is not only beautiful, but also very intelligent. She is a second-year university student and we discussed all of the new happenings in the lecturing field. Can you believe that out of my male friend's (who is also a lecturer like my wife) class, there are more than a quarter of the students that now deliver doctors letters when they miss the deadline of an assignment or exam. So, it is not only AI that is disrupting own-work essays, but also the new fad of getting doctors letters to escape sanction.
But such is life and come and look at what happened after the meeting.
I took this picture as we were leaving the meeting place and it told me that something drastic was going to happen weatherwise.
So off we went in a hurry to get a better vantage point.
On the way, we stopped at a public park to show you how a huge dark cloud was speeding over the mountains. For a moment, I thought that we would get wet, but thankfully not as it was on its way inland.
Someone inland is going to be happy with some much needed water.
On that yonder hill, the sun highlighted the lands in some areas.
But then, at the North, the clouds started to clear.
And the sun came out to play around with me.
White clouds followed in the tracks of the big dark cloud, and the mountains started to reveal themselves.
Just a lovely and sunny picture here.
And this was the final picture that I took of this amazing quick change in the weather.
We are blessed here with the ocean in the West and the mountains in the East. Then we also have one big mountain in the North, and the mountain range in the East surrounds our area into the South where it ends in the sea. So it is a large bay that our town is situated in. At times, the rain would come from the North, and at other times, it will arrive from the ocean in the West.
The famous South-Easter wind, that is called the Cape-Doctor, often pitches up in full force to try and blow people off their feet. At one time I was a bit careless, and I also became a victim of the Cape-Doctor, as it blew me right over. But I laughed at myself and am making sure that it will never happen again, touch wood.
We love this place and it is indeed a photographer's paradise.
I hope that you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.
And That's All Friends.
