peanut butter – Monte Stevens Blog

Winds have been gusting up to 25-30 mph since early this morning and we may see that continue into mid-afternoon. Because of the winds I wisely chose not to ride the bicycle to coffee and conversation. After returning home I made a piece of sourdough toast with a generous spreading of chunky peanut butter. I then sat in my bedroom chair with the warm sunshine spreading across my journal to write. But before I could get started writing the light and shadows on the pages urged me to put the pen down, set up the camera and tripod and use this image as a starting place for today’s post. As I post this I realize it reflects the life I live today full of prayer and meditation, coffee life, photography, journaling, blogging, and peanut butter. And if the wind wasn’t blowing, bicycling.

Had an issue with Lightroom not seeing or reading my new 64Gb SD cards. Took a while but figured out what was going on. All SD cards 64Gb andlarger will be formatted in exFAT rather than FAT32. So, on my Macbook Pro I needed to change the setting in System Preferences. Here is what I did.

Quit Lightroom.
Opened System Preferences
Select Security & Privacy
Select tab Privacy and scroll down the left side list to “Files and Folders”
Then make sure the option for ‘Removable Volumes’, Downloads Folder’ and ‘Documents Folder’ boxes are checked. You may have to unlock the padlock.
Exit out and restart Lightroom Classic.

Snowflakes are appearing as I post this. We are not expected to see much today or tomorrow but Friday and into Saturday could bring heavy snow day for us out here. Made a run to the store this morning and stocked up on chocolate, peanut butter, Irish Oats, cashews and toilet paper. 😁 I’ll keep you informed of the weather.
