First long weekend drive in. Rocket happy. Trilliums everywhere. Garlic sprouting. World hockey on AM radio ... Canada 6 - Russia 1.

Sounds like your "living the dream" Mike!

 

[michaelmaltby]

Thank you .... but my old body is making me pay. It's clear sailing for Leks though and he inherited the dream

 

[Shinpachi]

If I were there, I would live more than 110 years, MM
Really looks a nice place.

June 12 - 14, High 24, low 17, hours of heavy rain.

Lilacs in bloom, garlic healthy. Rocket back in town after 6 nights on patrol .... walked in after midnight .. hungry.

 

[Shinpachi]

The condition of hungry for an hour or so brings good health and promises long life.
My doctor's advice

 

[Wildcat]

Nice photos! Those woods sure would be fun to explore.

 

[michaelmaltby]

The bugs don't seem to bother Rocket ... but ..... they're fearsome this year .. especially where cool and damp.

 

[gjs238]

Did Von Panzer's name change?

 

[michaelmaltby]

No .... Rocket von Panzer it is ...
