It's been kinda cloudy and raining on and off here the past couple days.
My new pets seem to like that weather...

Not sure what our cat was trying to accomplish here but somehow I think it has to do with that procedure he had done a few months back...

He looks like he's caught in the act of plotting some elaborate plan for world domnination...

After a 15 plus year break in RC airplane flying, I got back into the hobby earlier this year. And thankfully no real crashes, just a couple harder landings. A couple of my planes

I’m sure the reply on look away is coming, coupled with the re-feed if scroll-too-fast-past. There’s prolly already a Rust/Rails/Java/VCL/DLL/API that devs can use.

Saw this grave in Salem Oregon today. This person played the Oregon Trail Game and did not get dysentery

To keep the cemetery theme going, I was in Charleston,SC a few weeks back and cruised through a cool cemetery with dates pre 1700's.

I and my wife visited a war cemetary in Italy, near the area where the Gustav line was during ww2, don't have any pics in the phone unfortunately.
Although they were German graves, it was fairly somber to realize the oldest guy we found was 24...

Somewhere it’s ok to use a chainsaw but not have a chainsaw?

Likely people cutting up drift wood and fencing for their beach fires. My company maintains some fencing for parking and erosion control at public beach. Good split rail fencing ends up in beach fires of the boneheads on a regular basis.

On another tangent, on a beach in Victoria, while enjoying my first cold VB after a day of driving the Holden HR on the back roads. Just making camp on remote beach, and some blokes drive in with a chainsaw, cutting scrub trees around me for their camp or a beach fire. To their credit, they cut a little further away once they saw me. I just waved, not my place to say anything, as I was traveling though their territory.

Another launch from Vandenberg tonight.
