You're welcome! I suspect there are more that a few of us who have not aged the past 28 years as well as we wished.

I really think lifeβ€˜s struggles can be summed up by one simple sentiment:

So many books, so little time.

Sad to see that. I've attended more than a few BWM motorcycle events in Torrey and always enjoyed riding in that area.

It's a beauty! The CarFax report is interesting. No service recorded and only 2-3K miles between 2013 and 2020.

I'm certain we are in store for a deluge of DNC texts and emails quoting this article and begging for donations.

My "delete and report spam" hotkey is going to get a workout.

That good dog is innocent...just like Bella here.

An old oak tree covered with lichen in the center. Behind it is a hillside vineyard with rows of exposed rusted trellis work.

A cluster of yellow daffodils bent over from the rain. In the foreground brown, decaying oak leaves with a dark oak trunk on the left and green grass beyond the daffodils.

Our first rain since January 5th has our daffodils leaning over.

There's a Twin Otter turboprop aircraft in the upper right from which two skydivers have just jumped. There is a bit of flare from the sun in the upper left. The skydiver in the lower left is wearing a black parachute pack with a bright orange handle that's used to deploy his parachute. He is wearing a red, white and blue jump suit with red and blue striped "grips" on his upper arms and along his legs. These provide handles for other skydivers when doing formation work in freefall.

I stopped taking big primes and zooms for travel about 5 years ago. Two small form factor primes, usually a 21mm and a 50mm lens, is all I carry and it's worked great for me. I do take a small table top tripod for the low light and night shots. It's made travel with a camera much more enjoyable.

Big old oak tree with lichen hanging from its branches. Two hikers walking away on a trail to the left. The ground is mostly grasses with a fallen tree limb in the foreground.

Grassland and a fence in the foreground and a large twisted oak stands in the middle. A bare vineyard rises on a hill behind the oak tree.

It was a dingy overcast day so I took my Leica M10 Monochom out on a short hike around Crane Creek. The focus was the gnarly old oaks in the park.

All four of my siblings voted for him too. They claim to be "Christians" but they all worship the anti-Christ in the Oval Office.
