How do I post a photo of our tree?

Use one of your photo hosting sites or ask one of us to post your image.
Here is an example from my flickr account:
Tramp and Daisy's tree:

Thank you, Wayne! There was a guy every Christmas who loved seeing our tree. He still around?

We all love seeing the Maine tree, Tramp (which looks great BTW)

Merry Christmas, mate...hope you had a good one!

I'm glad MTJ is back.

The guy was Marty! Is he still alive? I miss you guys. We had joy and fellowship.

MartyE is still alive, Tramp. He quit posting on MTJ about the same time you left.

I'm still around and mostly read. I saw Tramp asking how to post a picture of the tree and forgot all about it. I mostly read here as not much train activity and the last 6 months of work has been a bear.

I had been also taking care of my pup for a year and a half with cancer. She finally passed on December 4th, 2 months past her 14th birthday. She, for that time, was a big focus.

As always the tree is spectacular. It's been missed. Happy to see it. I think Tramp might have messaged me on my YouTube channel once. I'm pretty sure I replied but maybe not. Can't remember. Glad to see everyone here.

Edit: I see this is a picture Wayne posted. Still a good looking tree.

Marty, good to see you again on Model Train Journal (MTJ.)

The tree I posted is Tramp and Daisy's tree. I put Tramp's tree image in my Flicker image hosting account and posted it here. There has been no photo hosting on MTJ since Bill Lango died.

Thank you, Wayne as always! MartyE I loved how you looked forward to the tree! It is a part of Christmas.

Only the finest in O-scale Railroading is my layout!

The tree makes Christmas feel traditional. I love the candles and the older decorations. I also think the room adds a lot to it. I'm glad it got posted here. Hope all is well with you!

World Quantum Day Is April 14, 2024.

I found the first paper by Tara Fortier, Demystifying Quantum: It’s Here, There and Everywhere, fascinating. She revealed things about quantum physics that I had not read before.

The Yellow-and-black Argiope (pictured below), one of the largest spiders in Kentucky, is a type of orb weaver. They have up to a 3 inch leg span.


Harumph! The spiders in Arizona have up to a 10 cm (4 inches) leg span.

I almost walked through this one's web last night. I decided to get up this morning and take its picture at sunrise.

Edit 1: Changed 10 inches to 10 cm. My source (the internet) said 10 inches. Other sources on the internet say 4 to 6 inches. The tarantulas where I lived in Tucson, Arizona were about 4 inches in leg span (10 cm.)

Edit 2: I changed "this one's" to "this Argiope's" to clarify that I am not talking about Arizona spiders.

Wayne, that is a pretty spider. I had to laugh at your "Harumph"!!
