Costco has Kirkland Allertec, which contains the active ingredient for Zyrtec, 365 pills for only $15.99 including shipping, which is an amazing price if you need Zyrtec. I need it cuz my hands itch and swell without it, nevermind the actual allergies I have. I bought these 14 pill packets at Wally World all summer for 88 cents and it seemed to do as well as the much more expensive brand name, so here's hoping this will do the same. It should, same ingredient and amount.

So I bought a camera and tonight is a super moon, isn't it? Or is it tomorrow? I should check. At any rate, the early evening usually gives the most spectacular view, but I wasn't home. I decided to try my camera, hand-held, and shoot the moon anyway, around 10 pm. So to speak. Which would give you a TERRIBLE photo, right? Well, it's not good, but hell if it isn't THAT BAD.

I had to back off on the zoom because I couldn't hold it still when it got closer, but anyway.

And Cass and I went to the mountains - to the observation tower at Clingman's Dome, which is some 6600 ft alt - saw me some mountain ash, but didn't gather it though it'd be handy in case of werewolves:)  And some monks hood, I believe, though it was past bloom, just. Have a few photos.








You'll notice the dead trees - these are Fraser firs, killed by a non-native bug, the balsam woolly adelgid, which injects a poison into the trunk as it feeds and which disables the tree from taking in nutrition.

Beautiful pictures, even with the Fraser firs. :(

I love when I find a product I need at Costco at an awesome price. Omeprazole, and BreatheRight strips in my 'flavor' and a 44 count box at just a few bucks more than the 26 count in the stores are my current happy buys. Also Nature Valley protein granola bars that are PERFECT for my diabetes.

Gorgeous pics, what a view! But how awful about the adelgid. Non-native species can have such a devastating effect.

Lovely pictures. The one of the moon turned out really well, especially for a hand held. :-)
