I took this pic yesterday morning.

About an hour later my best buddy Panzer ran out of the house while I was loading stuff into the U-Haul. He wasn't gone but a few minutes. I ran down the long driveway to the road but I was too late. A loaded gravel truck had just gone by; didn't even stop. He was the...

All the time deal with it up!

This isn't a busy site and there certainly isn't any reason for anyone, including bots, to spam my posts with comments. It still happens. Fortunately the Askimet plugin catches 99% of them and they never even make it to me for review. Some of them do slip in and they...

Hank, Willow, Piper, Todd and Sarah

Went to a McCain/Palin rally in Grand Junction yesterday.  Sarah was there and it opened with Hank Williams, Jr.  I'm voting for Piper in 2030. I didn't have my 400mm lens so the pics are blurry when enlarged and cropped.

I am the chimney sweep

It's a dirty job and Mike Rowe wasn't around.

Visitor For Thanksgiving

Our good friend and previous neighbor from Bakersfield, Stephanie came to visit over the holiday.  We had a great time just gabbing and enjoying time and food together.

Panzer and Dad. Ride in the pickup.

Home to the Peacock in the previous post

Beautiful water feature at Magnolia Park.  I went to a bluegrass festival there last weekend and the views were nice, but the music wasn't to my taste.  Not your typical Bluegrass, more like toothless swamp folk singing colloquial lyrics about life.  

Fall Weather

Summer was mild, then we had a cold snap in early October with freezing temps, but since then it has been a beautiful fall season.   Let's hope for a normal mild Delta winter.

Our garden is going great!

Brisket for lunch!

Went to the Central Florida BBQ Blowout at the Oveido Mall parking lot today. At this humongous two-day barbecue competition/celebration, more than 80 teams – both professionals and backyard amateurs – compete hard for the win, and visitors get to taste the luscious...

Love this show. I'm no Jax but…

Pumpkin?

Not a fan of pumpkin ale. Don't like most 'flavors' added to my beer or cigars or pipe. [shrugs]

Sister Diane Visit Again

Another lunch date with Diane, and again at Black Forrest Taphouse. It's an easy 2.25 hour drive each way from Port Monmouth, NJ to Fallston, MD.

Reached some goals…

I've been trying to lose some weight since I moved to Florida in April and I finally hit my first goal. I started at a whopping 277 and set a target on 230, which I reached today!  47 pounds shed! The trick for me was to exercise regularly. I began tracking activity...

Peacock at Magnolia Park

  Unfortunately, although I followed him for about 30 minutes, he didn't open his fantail.  He looks a bit scraggly so it may not have been that spectacular anyway.

Obtuse Bronze Sculpture

I can't tell what this statue is all about. Is she being arrested and going to get frisked? Or is she preparing for position 78 in the Kama Sutra?

Are Ya Bored With Cycling Posts Yet?

After several days of rain it finally warmed up a bit (48°) so I took a long ride to Sandy Hook Gateway National Recreation Area. Total of about 21 miles. There were some Kite Surfers in the cold waters on the bay side. [video width="1920" height="1080"...

Bike Rides

So here is another ride. This is just too much fun.

Here's a few recent pics to keep things updated. Replaced my old DeBot brand robot vacuum with a new Wyze  Robot Vacuum. It's faster and uses Lidar to map each room for very efficient cleaning. Next up is Drago sitting so handsome in the back yard. Lastly is a DNA...

Everyone seems to get butt-hurt so easily these days.  At least the Irish don't get offended easily. I don't see them demanding that Lucky Charms change their name or stop using the diminutive supernatural being in Irish folklore, the beloved...

Hyperlapse Video

About 7 minutes of Hyperlapse video of my 40 minute ride home from work at the Matawan Aberdeen Library. It starts off on surface streets for about 1.5 miles but the balance of about 6 miles is on the Henry Hudson Trail which parallels the Ocean, sometimes only a...
