Was considering fishing again today but then I saw the Canadian Haze had rolled in bigly overnight.

It could be a long smokey summer here

Random picture I took early spring on boat ride home; Cable laying barge with ground support and local hospital in background. The camera was left on "vivid" from taking botanical pictures, alas the water is neither that blue nor the ski that bright.

Red fox came and snagged one of my hens yesterday at 1030am .. my chicken run got demolished in recent bad weather so they free range during daylight hours now until I can rebuild, I have things rigged so they are protected in their coop at night. Had 22, now 21, and guns ready. Definitely not nocturnal.
OT.. said chicken run errr the mangled mess of what once was.

I just came back from a trip to TN, by way of MD, and the haze is SERIOUSLY real all along that route up 81, over the MD, and up 95/87

I made some cuttings of a Beauty Bush (over here it's another name) and have about 5 or 6 actively growing.

Don't the French have (or maybe had) an agency, commission, or similar tasked with preventing the creep of foreign words into the French lexicon?

Brew on

They tried it but it had at best mixed results. They managed to keep these words out of public documents but people are gonna talk however they want. Especially now since so many Brits have moved to France.

No striped shirt for me, but we have been looking for a proper beret.

Silly trees got in the way, if I waited another hour it would have been a better shot, but it was 1am and I was nodding off.

...unless you have a bag of Doritos to spray the area to your right, like flares from an F16, as you sprint left.
