I still remember a picture of you from not so long ago (you probably posted it here or in the family thread) and I must say, just like wine, you seem to get better with age :bow:Quote:

Ah, that makes more sense.Quote:

A couple of blackbirds currently have a nest in our garden - "daddy" is sitting in the cheery tree waiting until it is his turn to deliver the next batch of food.

I recently went on a photo excursion to Valley Forge with some friends. Aside from Washington's headquarters, there isn't too much else remaining from the time period of the famous encampment. It is more a place of the mind rather than a visual "oh look at that!" But it is still a nice location with some hiking/walking trails, historical markers and some replica soldiers' huts. Here are a few pictures from the day.

Inside Washington's headquarters - George roughed it too:

On our hike over Mt Misery, we walked along a small stream tumbling down the hill:

Sunset gave us a beautiful sky for silhlouettes:

Im downvoting you just because you had to brag.
Downvotes have ruined Reddit. I could go write 500 words on what is broken with Reddit.Quote:

Ignore any mess you might notice in the photo, I have put off cleaning for the time being for fear of scaring the cats. They are still adjusting to this new environment and tend to be somewhat skittish, even when I sneeze due to dust, erm, I mean pollen. Yeah, pollen.
How do you like dem pants? A nice $6 Salvation Army find! :D
I've always thought that cats were the cutest pets one could keep. Hope they settle in well with you. :yes:
For the pants, you need to get a matching coat. And a fedora and a stick maybe. Then you're good to go. :clown:
Also what are you drinking?
The blazer and the stick I could do, but no fedora! Ha ha!
The cats are settling in quite well actually, thank you. Seems that Sammy in queen of the house and annie and myself are her underlings! Ha ha!
I was drinking iced tea. I bought it online somewhere. I think it is a white tea of some sort. That or an oolong, I don't remember. I took that picture several months ago. :)
Now I just drink plain old Lipton brand loose leaf or liquid multi mixed in a few quarts of water. I was getting too much caffeine! :O I still sport the threads though, soon to be accompanied by a nice second hand blazer! :D
Ahh, ut of course it's iced tea! I knew no one could put so much water in their whiskey!
Whiskey? Blech! When I did drink it I drank it straight. No more. I enjoy iced tea. Seldom hot, unless it is at an asian restaurant or such. :)
TRIVIA
One of these people is the Dutch prime-minister, can you guess which one??

Second from right?
We are talking about the Dutch here, so when in doubt pick the tall guy.
the unusually tall looking guy with the glasses.Quote:

EDIT: for the record, I'm around 6' tall.
The video below is a night (full moon) time lapse photo session I did while on vacation earlier this month in Canada. It is an hour of real time compressed into one minute. My uncle and cousin drift by doing a little midnight fishing at the beginning. Also, look for the wake coming ashore a few seconds after the boat zips by near the end. The video is encoded for 1080p so you can go full screen with it.
