I remember when, do you?
[large picture] .Just multiply time 10 or so to get today's prices.
The main problem with this is that us senior citizen's fixed incomes don't multiply time ten.

No, not Colorado
Colorado is no further along than it was last night. Since you guys are due an update, I thought you might like a couple of pictures I used on my other blog for Wordless Wednesday postings.
Dusty, a fine Tennessee Walker
Dusty belongs to our neighbor who is in Colorado for the summer. Dusty and Ebony (not pictured) and Luke (ditto) traveled with the family to Colorado for the summer.

Sleeping dog at Pompeii under sleeping Mount Vesuvius
I found this dog sleeping when we were touring Pompeii. A lot of people slept every night under Mt. Vesuvius, it hasn't gone off for a couple of thousand years, surely it won't go off in their lifetime still.
You may see this dog again on a Sunday post. I did NOT wake it up. I do not know its name. I think it is a stray dog, there were a lot of loose dogs there that day.

Who is this man? (Quiz)
Hint: No one I found in Colorado. He was found by the cops in NYC, last name Morse. A long time ago.
What Felisol said:
"Dear Mr. Jim,
Yeah, found the Octoberbug with picture and all.
A NOTED FIREBUG CAUGHT; DAVID J. MORSE FINALLY AR- RESTED IN THIS CITY. Last of a Little Gang That Defrauded Fire Insurance Companies -- Their Method Was to Start Millinery Shops or Dry Goods Stores in Western Cities, and Then Came the Fires -- Two Now in Prison and One Dead.
October 4, 1896, Wednesday" (New York Times [link]--The PDF complete story link)
Ok guys, keep guessing, the game's over.
The following answers given so far, ARE WERE INCORRECT:
No it isn't Samuel Morse.
Yes, I know the Morse Code, I don't copy the faster speeds I used to, so go slow until I get up to your speed.
No, it isn't the 'seed guy.'
No, it isn't actor Herbert Morse.
No, it isn't Salmi Morse.
No, it isn't big crook K.W. Morse.
Yes, I will tell the answer later but keep guessing.
