Item #1: Images<\/span>\"\"<\/p>\n

Item #2: News you can use <\/span>\"\"<\/p>\n

I don’t know how you can use this. Maybe a game of trivia.
\na bunch of little hills<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The page has related stories, below and to the right. One was about 500 million year old tunnels left by worms in the Burgess Shale <\/strong><\/a> \u2013 a place 350 miles northeast of us. I have a book someplace.<\/p>\n

Another with video<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Item #3: On the road<\/span>
\n\"\"The road is called the Eyre Highway (National Highways 1 & A1) and goes across a part of Australia, west to east. It crosses the Nullarbor Plain, an almost treeless {no + arbor} part of southern Australia. Frequently The Nullarbor is expanded in tourist literature and web-based material to refer to all the land between Adelaide and Perth, but it is only about half of that distance. East and west of the Nullarbor, there are other biogeographic regions.
\nFrom looking up stuff for our “geography of wine” class, we learned that grapes are harvested in Western Australia and carried in refrigerated trucks across most of OZ \u2013 to make sparkling wine near Melbourne, by a French company.
\n So, now a man and wife, with a truck, and a drone have produced a photographic introduction to this remote highway.<\/p>\n

Unique views of the Nullarbor<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Item #4: A Learn-from Event<\/span>\"\"<\/p>\n

Wind hits tree \/ tree hits house <\/strong><\/a>
\nThis photo is from Meadowbrook Blvd., in Cleveland Heights, OH \u2013 about 14 miles from where sister Peggy lives.
\nThe small orange arrow (center, left) points toward 2 utility lines. The dark area outlined in orange shows decay thoughout much of the tree. Some of it seems hollowed out.
\nUnlike Angels, trees don’t live eternally. Trees grow old and get ailments, as this photo shows. Big trees are expensive to remove, especially near structures and power lines. It is still cheaper to have them taken down by a licensed service than it is to have one come down across your BMW or new kitchen, while you are in it.
\nSee: How much does it cost?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This link starts with a scary scene:
\n Painesville<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Item #5: Tired of this<\/span>
\nThe month of February has been cold in Washington State. March is starting the same way. Last night and into this morning there has been a fog and the temperature is about 17\u00b0F. There is a white icy crust on everything. It is very pretty.
\nWe are ready for it to be gone.<\/p>\n

And that, for this week, is the not so nasty news.
