Caught this big boy on one of my trail cams. There's a number of big bucks in my backyard. It's Archery deer hunting season, so these big bucks come to me, apparently, for refuge. And I'm just fine with that! :)
This is AI. Using ChatGPt, I converted one of my photos to “watercolor.” I was going through a “painter’s” portfolio when I noticed several “paintings” that were basically the same, but had different attributes. Different skies, tones and features, etc. It was clear, he used AI to multiply his work
I LOVE the mountains, but occasionally, a beach ain't so bad. This is Maui, between Kamaole and Makena beaches. It's one of my "must stops" when I'm on Maui! I could give exact GPS coordinates, but it's more fun to find this spot on your own. 😊
Not saying Bitcoin is dead, but accept for those that bought in early, they’re losing a lot of money. Me, if any of my assets lost 46% in the last year, I would have long ago dumped it. And with no intrinsic value, the picture isn’t looking very bright for Bitcoin… And I know some will disagree.
This is Buddy (in front.) We lost him a few months ago. He was 16. He looked very much like Barney before he went gray. We rescued him. He was skin and bones when he found us. He lost his hearing as well, but it didn't change his personality. He was a VERY happy boy!
Flying to/from Canada last week, and up and down the Cascade range, I had some great views of the mountains. From Shasta, north, the skies were clear. This is Mt. Rainer.
I’ve been watching these coyote babies for several weeks, but today is the first time I’ve seen mama. #TrailCam #sierra #LifeIsGood
Peaceful and quiet: No fireworks, no Harleys, no obnoxious people, no bad news! I’m at my place in the mountains, elevation 7100 ft. I’ll have to leave at some point, but that’s a thought for a different day. My dogs are enjoying pristine lakes, clean air, hiking and all the play they choose. ☮️
A friend of mine happened to see several Trader Joe’s bags (similar to these) in my pantry and told me that they’re collector’s items and are quite valuable. I said: “you CANNOT be serious,” but she assured me it was true. Please tell me people don’t genuinely collect junk like this. Anyone?
Entirely drain the DC cesspool. All need to go, many must be jailed! Especially, the traitorous orange shit stain on America!
I owned a KLX400 — a Suzuki DRZ400 with Kawasaki stickers and green plastic. I lowered the gearing, so it wasn’t very good on highways, but it made a decent camping/fishing/play bike. 😀
This is Sally, as a puppy, my first of five GSPs. All 5 were goofy. 🤪 Nonetheless, they were fantastic dogs and I loved each one.
I’ve come to love the “doodle” crosses. This is Anni my Bernedoodle as a leaf covered pup. She’s the smartest (and most diabolical) dog I’ve ever had! Love her!
Camping at Tulloch Lake, CA before the campground closed because of the Golden Mussel infestation. The mussel closed the lake to power boats, which made it wonderful for kayaks, but the lack of paying customers was a burden the campground couldn’t overcome. 😢
I’ve fallen in love (many times) with silver Labs! Although I’ve also fallen in love with chocolates, yellows, blacks and even a nearly white Lab. To put it more succinctly: I LOVE LABS!!!
Sonora Pass, California. Makes for a challenging and beautiful motorcycle ride.
My pup’s toy box. She’s not spoiled either. 😬 #dogsofbluesky #Bernedoodle
Well, we got a little snow. California’s had an awful ski season, not to mention the impending drought and a wicked wildfire season. Much of the snow melted quickly, but every little bit helps.
Out on the Panigale a while back. Note: oil spot under the bike is from the Harley previously parked there... #Ducati #Motocycle
My heart is always in Forest Friday. #forestfriday bsky.app/hashtag/Fore...
Today is one of the many days I think about my late wife. It was December 20th, a few years ago, that I lost her. She was a GREAT skier and of all of our hobbies, skiing was her fave. Double black runs, no problem for her. Leaving me for dead on the slopes, also, no problem. She was incredible! ⛷️
