    Welcome back home! You have posted some of the best street shots of people I have ever seen and looking forward to them again.

    Just got back to the cabin from chasing grouse and have a voicemail from the other retired Navy guys in SD. WiFi of course no cell phone reception here. The Admiral ended up buying a house in Eureka on the ND SD border for pheasant hunting. Something about 4 inches of white stuff on the ground and 4 more inches of white chit coming down now. And hoping I'm doing better here. Not so much.

    Cook County at the tip of the Mn. Arrowhead, Canada still has the border closed. 2 birds today shot a rather spruce tree yesterday dead square as one flew behind it LOL.

    Spent 4 years in San Diego in the 70's then a few up in the Puget Sound area of Wa. Then down to the Bay area where I took the Coral Sea around the world in 83 to the East coast. Then of course up and down the Eastern seaboard. Never ever dreamed I would end up in Mn. and been here 20 years now. Winters are rather brutal though.

    Latte art will never happen. I gave up on trying. I just dump the milk in now. I’m convinced baristas who do those extraordinary designs are using witchcraft.

    Well, then you should ask them to de-buzz the A string at fret 14!

    What thread is this?

    Wrong number! Wrong number!

    The buzzing is back and worse than ever. I need to swap my saddle back to the one that came stock but need to order new strings first because I know I’ll snap one in the process lol.

    nice shot, still waiting for your entry this week ;)

    That would be so boring though

    The fire above started last Saturday around noon and ballooned to about 8800 acres by Sunday morning. Fortunately the weather has cooperated and it hasn’t grown much since. This was the view from near my house when it was getting started.
