Love, love, love Spy in the ocean on PBS. Thanks for sharing.
My wife is going through chemo right now. Doctors, chemo staff are serious about drinking at least 2 to 3 quarts of water a day. You need to get the toxic chemo chemicals out of your body asap. The last thing you want is liver damage. Your doctor gave you a handout describing chemo. You may be receiving a different type of chemo than my wife. Read it and follow it. Have a family member read it as well. Take care and God bless.
I'm retired and I made sure my honey do list was soooo long, I need to live to 100 to get everything done.
Your camera did leave a suicide note. A picture is worth a 1,000 words. Last photo was the longest suicide note ever taken.
I enjoyed the quiz. I'm not looking to beat you up like a troll or question the answers, it was a fun quiz. Thanks.
If you have boxes of slides, a projector and screen, gather the family around and show the kids, grandkids what life was like growing up in our era. Give them that family experience we had growing up.
Maybe I'll buy a box of Depends, add some coloring for stain effects and hide my camera gear in it.
I use peppermint oil, several drops in a spray bottle with water. Spray everywhere under the hood, wheel wells, around the entire vehicle. I even spray around my doors, garage door. I guess it works, never had a problem. Plenty of YouTube videos on the subject.

Been there done that. I am doing a comparison of todays homeless and yesterdays homeless then called Hoboes, bums and so on. I rode the rails and photographed the hoboes on freight trains for six month after being discharged from my obligation in the French army. Then on my return to the USA I was draftedin the US Army. My MOS was 84B combat and photographer and photo journalist.
Thanks for serving home and abroad. The comparison will be an interesting read. Keep us posted. Looking forward to your writing and photos. Be safe and God bless.
DO NOT BE SNEAKY photographing anyone. Have you talked to the homeless before? I have. Large areas of homeless camps can be dangerous. Before Covid, I use to drive around and give bags to the homeless (food, toothbrush/paste, socks, gloves, beanies). I wear my old military boots for a reason, needles. I've almost stepped on several needles over the years. 99.9% were nice/kind folks. Some fell on hard times, some spent 3-6 months in jail, many younger persons left abusive/drug infested homes, mental issues. Sadly, a few were good hard working people who were victims of drunk drivers and suffered brain damage. They all share one thing in common, once on the street, it's almost impossible to recover, find a job. They give up and lose all hope. They have names, just like you and me. Talk to them, get to know their story. Tell them everything you are doing and why.
I think Fleckjohn65 and I use the same thing. I bought 2 metal file cabinets (2 drawer), placed side by side with 2 shelf boards on top to give me a large surface area for my Epson 3880 printer that weighs about 43lbs. All 4 drawers hold my cameras and lenses.
If FedEx merged with UPS their new name would be FedUp.
I have cow tissue for an aortic valve. Got it 15 yrs. ago. Still going strong. People ask me if I view cows any differently. Yeah, check her out, she's hot!
Gray market bulbs are cheaper, buyer beware.
Here in Ca., a bill to end DST was passed by voters. It never happened. Local news looked into the matter and reported, it is a Federal issue. The state cannot change Federal laws. How did Arizona get away with not complying? I guess everyone else will have to spring forward March 13.
