Lubbock Sights 11

 Clear skies, warming nicely. but a bit windy today. The early part of next week will be somewhat cold but, as usual, there will be no precipitation of any kind and the drought continues. 







This might be a very dry Spring, and if that is so, we are in bad shape. Really bad shape.

Lubbock Sights 10

 I get to spend more and more time outdoors, getting more and more accomplished around here. After the weekend a bit of a wintery turn is expected but nothing like the last one. 







These are now more like Lubbock AREA sights. And the photos were taken years ago. By this time I'm sure everything is much improved-- fixed up and painted up and rehabilitated beyond recognition. But I'll never know for sure because I'm not going there again. Never, ever.

Lubbock Sights 9

 The weather gets better and better. I do more and more work outdoors. Today I completed stage 1 of a small project. I loaded my vehicle with materials and needed accessories and got it done very quickly. It's all in the planning. 







It certainly does help to be STRONG, like BULL! Like OX! Argh.

Lubbock Sights 8

 At least this stuff was in the Lubbock area. Over 950,000 Covid deaths in the USA. Numbers still rising but more slowly. The weather here is getting better and better. Russell wrote about a "measurement problem", but his concern seemed to be defining measurements of lengths or intervals. More to the point, in the context of the modern measurement problem, were his remarks on the problem of defining an event. What are the boundaries, for instance? What are the components? The discussion is mostly from the perspective of a logician, of course. 







You know, I think some of this stuff WAS in Lubbock.

Lubbock Sights 7

The weather is getting better every day, but whether that matters, I don't know. Ha. Of course it matters. Meteorological Spring has arrived. I am finally re-reading Bertrand Russell's "The Analysis of Matter." Yeah, it's a bit outdated in some respects but still worth reading. Last time I went through it I think I was in high school. This time around I understand more, since I've learned a lot since then. It kills time and it's an interesting stroll through the past.







I'll be doing some of this black and white stuff for a while, and this is not in Lubbock. Close to Lubbock but not IN Lubbock.
