We're supposed to get over an inch of rain tomorrow and it's supposed to be a wetter than normal winter. The reservoirs out here were just lowered in anticipation of the winter rains.

No, its what you capture in the image. Like how in his the trees frame the waterfall, and mountains. Its a subject type thing with imagining.

Framing is a technique anyone can do. It just involves looking at your subject in a different way - one that includes the surroundings as much as the subject.

We white guys sure think so. And we have to do that lip-biting thing when we dance too. It's part of the code.

I'll give y'all a few minutes to digest all that, and while I'm waiting, I'll give out our first EdenFantasys gift card of the evening.

I'm going to give everyone a minute or two to catch up before posting the trivia question

It's never easy.
I know! I always email a copy of my meeting to Sam for good measure. Once I accidentally ctrl+x'dd my entire thing, and had to race off to my email and download it Sam's a lifesaver, even if she doesn't know it!

OK, the first person to answer this question correctly will win a $25 EdenFantasys gift card.

From what language is the word "camera" derived?

We had funnels coming down earlier a few miles from my house but it only rained here for about an hours. We are over 20" down for the year...sad.

We rarely (like once every other year) get snow. I wish it would snow more but I see it when I travel and we get to ride all year long

Congrats, Starkiller87! I think this is your third straight month of winning, is it not?

Yes, not surprisingly, Latin is the language from which the word "camera" is derived.

There was a little bit of snow. More like a "yes, there is snow coming down" and less "snowing" since it didn't stick at all.

Latin, from "Vaulted room"

Lmao.

At my wedding when we were introduced, I came in doing the sprinkler and my husband came in doing the running man. I would have done that one, but I couldn't do it in my heels lol.
