Picturesque Fire Hydrant, Not

 I am sans computer today. Because I wasn’t pleased with my new monitor, I returned it and bought a new one. But it wasn’t in stock, so it will be delivered sometime. They said today, but I am dubious  

So, I am experimenting by typing on my tablet. I have done this fairly often before, but I don’t think I have ever tried to add a photo from my iCloud photo roll to Blogger. We shall see if it works. If it does work, you will see a rather glorious big fir tree across the street lit up and snow covered.


Well, yes and no. Although I can plop a photo from my iPad to approximately sixteen-thousand places, Blogger does not seem to be one of them. So, I copied and pasted. But I did it, and what a great tree, especially the fire hydrant inclusion. Again, if I had access to my computer, I would be tempted to photoshop the hydrant into oblivion.

  1. I have a Samsung tablet, but am incapable of posting my blog on it. Kudos to you for achieving this miracle.

  5. I routinely post from my Fire tablet to blogger. But Apple and Google are not friends.

  6. That's a beautiful blue-lit tree, ready to have snow dumped up against it to cover the fire plug.
    I am currently sending my iPhone photos as emails to myself, and there downloading them into the laptop with blogger. Poor ole iCloud is unreachable by this machine, but I do appreciate the keyboard, rather than a silly virtual tiny one.

  8. I move from the desktop to the iPad and back again, but prefer to type on the big keyboard, for obvious reasons. For a small fee, I could eradicate the hydrant for you. A very small fee.
    Gosh, that snow was beautiful. Too bad it did not arrive to decorate Chrismas; from the look of the forecast, there will be no snow left by the 24th.
    Our paper has an hilarious cartoon in which Santa trades in the reindeer for battery operated robots.
    Love it.

  9. That is a gorgeous tree! You're very brave. If I don't have my laptop, I can't blog. I've possibly done one or two posts from my cell phone but it's laborious and frustrating.

  16. Definitely blast the hydrant. What a thoughtless place to install it.

  19. I never even noticed the hydrant, that tree is so stunning.
    I have been blogging on my phone almost always since summer. It is not as good as the laptop, but so much easier since my laptop is slomo these days. Once it gets going it's fine. But like me, it is stuff and crotchety when it first gets moving

  20. You are a master at the work around. When I don't have a computer (working) I just give up and save my brilliance for another day.

  21. Good job! That is a doozy of a tree. Ugh I hate computer problems and I hate waiting! But it will be worth all of the hassle when your new monitor arrives. xoxo
