Blue Monday #19-B/Questions

It is Blue Monday again! Thank you to Sally at Smiling Sally for hosting this fun day. If you have not visited the Blue Monday postings before go by Sally's to see who else is doing this theme.
This was taken in the Summer of 2006 out on the San Francisco Bay. We were on a ferry either going or returning from Pier 39 in San Francisco. We had gone there as part of a field trip with the Vacation Bible School with our church. The destination was the new Aquarium on the Bay. We had a fun day and it was so relaxing to ride on the ferry on the BLUE water. This picture is of the East Brother lighthouse. It is still in operation. And recently my hubby emailed me a link about a job as the lighthouse keeper there. He said he would love to have that job. Maybe. It would include running a bed and breakfast that is also there. But I would not take that job. I am not up to running something like that. Besides there is no internet connection there. Or so the job description claimed. It would be very lonely there except for when there were visitors for the inn. You can't just run errands any old time. Need to take the boat to do anything you need to do. I don't know if the job got filled or not.

This picture I took on Sunday(yesterday). We were having another beautiful day. Although we badly need some rain. This is a tulip tree. A different one than the one I posted about on Pink Saturday. This one is on my parent's street.

Here is a close up of the flowers against the pretty BLUE sky.

Here is another view on our way home. I have been trying to get different pictures of the scenery around our area. Fellow bloggers seem to be really enjoying seeing the pictures of this area. If you look carefully in the middle, you can see the BLUE waters of the north end of the San Francisco Bay. When we travel this road at night, we can see the city lights way out there. The skies were very BLUE again, but a little hazy at the same time. Not quite as crisp as it has been. A lot of pruning of the grapevines going on right now. This vineyard has not been pruned yet.
Happy Blue Monday!!

Now I have a question for you. What browser do you use? What browser works the best for uploading pictures onto your blog? I have been using AOL and that works well for me. I can upload up to 5 pictures usually without any problems.

We have been thinking of getting rid of the AOL and using something else. We happen to have Mozilla Firefox which works great for browsing blogs and commenting most of the time. But when I was trying to upload pictures for my craft blog post, it was not working well at all. I would set it to load 5 pictures, but then only 3 would actually post or none. I finally gave up and switched back to the AOL to do my post.

Any suggestions as to what browser works besides AOL?

Thanks for your input.
