Wednesday Image Search – Sot and Tot

Welcome to another Wednesday Image Search where I pick a string of letters or a word and share some of the images I find in an image search of the blog.

Last week I continued the current sequence with ‘rot’. This week I will search for ‘sot’ and ‘tot’ as neither have enough finds alone. There will be some gaps in this ‘*ot’ sequence, including ‘aot’, as not all combinations will find images.

What images will I find?

Salmon, risotto, lunch, brazil, foodThe first image is of a Salmon and Risotto lunch I had in Brazil during my last visit there.

Desoto Lake, Missouri River Change, Border AnomalyNext is De Soto Lake between Iowa and Nebraska. The lake is the remnants of an Oxbow in the Missouri River. There are some interesting Missouri River Border Anomalies.

leben am toten meer, life at the dead sea, SMAC, ChemnitzThis poster is for an exhibition at a museum in Chemnitz, Germany. Leben Am Toten Meer was an exhibition about Life at the Dead Sea. Some pictures that I took in Israel were used in this exhibition. See:  Life at the Dead Sea

Paul Julian, Total Eclipse, NebraskaHere is a picture of a Total Eclipse that was taken by my friend Paul Julian.

Sweet Potato tater tots, appetizers, good foodHere is a bowl of sweet potato tots at the Lazy Dog in Dublin, California. They were really good.

There were very few ‘sot’ and ‘tot’ images to choose from.  I hope you like the selections that I made.

Which is your favorite of these pictures?

What should I search for next? I will probably continue with the ‘*ot’ series.

Oak Island – A Templar Pause?

The Curse of Oak Island season 11 did not have a new episode this week but there was a Drilling Down episode about Lot 5. I was interested to see if they would get back to the Templars in the recap of what has happened there.

Curse of Oak Island, mystery, curse, oak island, Google Maps, Island locationsThe causeway to the island has been busy in Season 11 as they restart investigations and bring in equipment and experts to consult with.

It has been interesting that in the last couple of episode the have not talked about the Templars at all?

Will the Templar pause continue in the new episode next week?

Curse of Oak Island, mystery, curse, oak island, Google Maps, Island locationsThe shared the fact the the circular structure was at least partially created by the previous owner of Lot 5. Perhaps to outline and protect workings from hundreds of years ago.

The narrative then shifted to William Phips who was know to be in the area in the 1600’s. Perhaps he reused older structures to help hide treasure he recovered from a shipwreck in the Caribbean.

It is also interesting that the Wikipedia article for Phips has been expanded in the last weeks.

They also have some data which will lead to more digging fro structures.

I mentioned that they did talk about the Templars in this Digging Down episode, but the connections were minimized and not talked about as much as before.

They did not show a preview of the episode next week, but I went back to what I wrote last week where they did show a preview.

In the preview for next week they showed some more excitement as they again dropped a camera down a bore hole into Aladdin’s Cave. They also showed some excitement in the Garden Shaft with mention of an offset chamber.  Did they run into a void?
