Tree Tuesday/Community Focus

in #community5 years ago

Greetings my friends... we are treading water!

Large storms are moving across the mid-states today... being in Missouri, that means us!! For those of you that are being affected by these storms, I hope you are safe, and enjoy a nice evening of sleep... with no bad endings. I'm rather behind as usual; MS having its way...as it does. Going through a pretty nasty flare-up, but as always, remain positive and ride the storm out...

I always like to share a few trees for the #treetuesday created by @old-guy-photos... it's an awesome challenge; if you haven't participated, you should! Weather is starting up again, so better jump on into this post!

Trees... and?

My better half snapped this photo on her LG Rebel 4 mobile phone the other morning when getting the grandkids on the school bus... I could go on about geo-engineering... but I won't. It is, however, a rather wild looking photo of trees and...

I know what you are thinking...maybe? How cool of a shot this turned out to be, or the fact that I am using a "real" camera? This was taken several moons ago... to be exact... Sunday‎, ‎October‎ ‎25‎, ‎2015, 1:19 PM... I have spoken briefly in the past about Ha Ha Tonka State Park... a cool little place to go and get closer to nature. The history there is quite awesome, but I will let you read more and decide! Reference
(P.s. its a GREAT place for Autumn color shots)

A nice little presentation of trees for the #treetuesday for you, but I also mentioned something about...

Community Focus

I have really been trying to do as many positive things as I can here, for this Steemit'verse; writing for the #steembasicincome group, Moderating at the #steemterminal, helping the continuing growing group at #steemusa... as well as doing my best to share quality content (though REALLY hard when I'm having an MS flareup)...
I started looking through all the names on the member's list, of each Discord Group I am in, and really realized... it is indeed a "small world"... SO many familiar faces. It got me thinking; no matter how many groups you are in, there's a very VERY good chance, someone from one of your favorite Discord Group, may be in several others... There is no such thing as a random accident, to me... The smallest of intentions can result in the LARGEST results!! You don't have to be a member of the #steemterminal, to share information, kindness, and positive energy. We would love to have you, however, if you are looking for a calm place to learn and ask questions!

It's time to wrap this one up my friends; I hope things are going good in your neck of the woods! As always, I thank you for taking the time to stop by and read my posts!!

I use LunaPic Free Online Photo Editor to edit my photos...

I think your better half did a great job on the pic

Thank you, my friend!! She showed me that later in the day, and we were like......what??

There are many things in our skies above, that just doesn't seem to be normal, but being aware, and doing our part in our "own" environment, is all we can do... sure do appreciate you stopping by and commenting!

Being aware everyday is needed

Cool shots for Tree Tuesday and yes you see many of the same names in many groups, I am a bit slack for being active in many groups, I keep hearing Steem Terminal being mentioned but do now know much about it to be honest

Thanks for this great post and being an active member of @steemusa !tip

Hello, my friend!

I completely understand your sentiment there lol; I am currently in so many groups, its hard to stay in focus with all of them!! But I also think it's important...so we can keep in touch with everything going on in this way cool Steemit'verse!! As for the #steemterminal... great place made, to welcome new members to our Steemit'verse... provide information, answers to questions and issues. There are MANY channels to search through; new members are able to get an organic feel... answers from real people, not BOTS... its a place that goes hand in hand with the @heyhaveyamet initiative...welcoming new members. If you have time, you should really stop by and look around! GREAT place for new members, or members like me, who might have been around for a while, but still like to stay current.

@xcountytravelers just actually put up a Part One of two posts, discussing this awesome group...

Appreciate you popping in, and of course the tip! Glad to be a member of the #steemusa group!!

That is such a great initiative I read that post earlier and its a great thing your all are doing, i would love to offer to hep but I am struggling to keep up with what I am doing now LOL

Oh, no worries my friend!! I know you are busy; the #steemusa is coming alive and with so many new members, and things to keep track of (not including outside world things like a job lol) ... I am sure you are swamped! I know where your heart is, and appreciate the shout out!!

Well the positive side is only 171 Working days left so than I willl have more time for the more fun and non work related things
I actually liked be busy I do better when busy so when I do leave work I may e more active on here than I am now :)

Oh, heavens brother... I remember those days!... miss being able to work; 12 hour days Monday through Saturday, side jobs in the morning... good times! I think you do just fine and hope you are able to enjoy your time off...just how you want... now back to work buddy!

I am slowly weaning myself out of work mode, for many years I worked 12 to 16 hour days 6 or 7 days a week so I do not mind slowing down for my last year :)

Awesome job on the storm report, @wesphilbin, and yes, your better half did take a good photo, and yes, we know about the geoengineering, don't we!
4 mins till the eyeglaze and counting!!!

Thank you, brother!! Maybe I should be a weather person? Haha!!

Eyeglaze?... what were we talking about?

Those skies look just like here today!
