Thanks for bringing up a memory, JEBar.
Nice reminder of the three years we lived in OR, where we spent vacation time along the OR coast camping and visiting lighthouses. Especially enjoyed the Bandon lighthouse in the southern part of the state.
http://lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=127 For that camping week, we left our tent at home and camped in a yurt near the beaches. I had seen an actual yurt used by Siberian herders when I travelled in the former Soviet Union during the 80s. It was a neat experience to camp in one.
You got to see beautiful sunrises, and we did the sunsets!
Ah, the Henry mug just warmed up with my double mocha....enjoy the Saturday.

Cate,
A lot of Vietnam Veterans developed cancer because of exposure to Agent Orange. I did and so did half the guys in my unit. I currently get a VA Disability because of it.

We have had warm sunny weather for over a week. Not like Seattle at all.

Another great day starting here in Sequim. Had a little fog early but right now it's 43* and clear blue skies.

Too often, physical and psychological war wounds and their effects can extend far beyond the battlefield; and they are not necessarily all inflicted by an enemy. I wish you all the best, Sir, and continued good health.

Morning all. Beautiful spring morning here.
Pics of a couple of tin signs my wife found over years in yard sales or antique shops. They are in the living room. Just relaxing this morning watching Rifleman on AMC.

I really like your signs. Just having one cup of Rio Grande dark roast this morning. I have this one hanging in my bedroom,

It's 35* here in south central Pennsylvania and there is snow and rain mixed at 4:30 PM. Rather odd for this time of year here. But, Winnie is on my lap and she's warm under the afghan, and I'm happy that she's here.

this weekend we are in our camper at Lake Jordan in NC for our monthly outing .... unseasonably cold ( not cool,
cold ) this morning with the temp hovering around freezing .... somehow coffee in a Minnesota mug seems appropriate ..

While it is clear this morning, it is just cold for this time of year here in Jonesboro. It is 41 at 8:30am. The good news is that the winds have died down. The afternoon winds have been kicking butt at the Masters. Be careful and stay safe.

A sunny, crisp morning in our neighborhood. It should be great weather for what will certainly be a huge crowd at the UCONN NCAA Women's Basketball celebration parade in Hartford. Four years in a row!!!

Mine too...
Today I'm rearranging my corrals a little so I can access my back pasture from the round pen through a ride-thru gate. Tomorrow I'm calling the RCMP local guy to see what the bylaws are here for shooting on my own property. Not sure. We don't live near town but do have neighbors. Most of my shooting will be done at the local range, but it would be nice to get my horses desensitized to it too. If it's not an issue, then I'll set up an area where I can pump some rounds into the manure pile or somewhere there's no chance of a stray bullet causing a problem.

I forgot the second cup of tea water was boiling. Thanks to this thread I remember it after a half hour.
