I don’t normally make time for these sorts of things, though I often find they lead to other blogs with great content, especially photos.
But when else would I use some of these photos?
So, for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge, a few quick patterns. See details for what you should post at Cee’s Photography.
Adobe
Adobe bricks in a house under construction, for Habitat for Humanity in Taos, New Mexico.
Fractal mountain erosion, fractal clouds
Fractal erosion patterns in the mountains around San Francisco Bay, California.
Dead prickly pear cactus
Support structure of a prickly pear cactus, exposed by the death of the cactus section and weathering.
Windows on the Oquirrhs
West windows in the lobby of the Utah Museum of Natural History, campus of the University of Utah, Salt Lake City. Oquirrh Mountains on the west side of the valley visible through the windows.
I should probably post more of my photos just to make sure they get preserved somewhere. You should, too.

Yes, you should post more of your photos! I don’t do Cee’s challenge but I enjoy seeing the posts of the ones that do. You had excellent choices! Well played!
I thought it was a grand vista when we were there. But looking at these photos, I noticed how much it appears to be almost a mosaic of the western sky and Oquirrh Mountains over the Salt Lake Valley. It would be a grand place to do some long-gap time lapse photos, showing the changing skies and seasons over the valley, blue cloudless skies, brown hazes from pollution, setting suns and stormy skies.
Hmmm. I wonder whether the Utah MNH could be persuaded to do a live cam of the view from the window . . .

We've been soaking in the Bathtub for several months, long enough that some of the links we've used have gone to the Great Internet in the Sky.
If you find a dead link, please leave a comment to that post, and tell us what link has expired.
Thanks!

My blog, Millard Fillmore's Bathtub, is a continuing experiment to test how to use blogs to improve and speed up learning processes for students, perhaps by making some of the courses actually interesting. It is a blog for teachers, to see if we can use blogs. It is for people interested in social studies and social studies education, to see if we can learn to get it right. It's a blog for science fans, to promote good science and good science policy. It's a blog for people interested in good government and how to achieve it.
