This thunder head dominated the horizon most of the evening. I was thinking how long it had been since I had seen some really good lighting. This was a good one. It also kicked up a few tornados this evening. Got a camera ready for the next one of those. Miles

It was a real frog strangler today. There was so much rain it brought out the mermaids. She was having a great time but the rest of us were having some trouble staying dry. There is something magical and soothing about sitting on a porch and listening to the rain on a tin roof. Try it some time. Miles

What a great find. Tucked away in the Ozarks outside of Calico Rock, Arkansas you find cedar lodge. Lots of room to relax and get back to nature. You are off the grid for sure here. Miles

Ok. I know I said I would bury you with posts all on one day but here they are. I have had hell getting service on the road lately so now I'm backed up. Apologies of course.

I have sent this photo to the fish and wildlife commission to try and ID the strange beast on my floor board. I know it was alive and a meat eater. Note the chicken next to the animal. Any suggestions on how to classify this monster would be appreciated. Miles

Some rain on black paint and chrome. Nice. The rain held off for the annual HOG FESTIVAL in Ben Wheeler Texas. Those of you that showed up for some hog meat and the annual hog wrestling I'm sure were impressed. My team in the wrestling fell short. No tutu or butterfly wings on the porky this year. Oh well, there is always next year. Miles

Security systems can be found in all sizes and price ranges. This system's battery does not run down often and tends to create other byproducts.... Still it strikes terror into would be attackers and hooligans. I just wish puppy chow was not so expensive. Miles

If old cars could talk.....so many memories inside these old clunkers. Dates, first times, love, vacations, funerals, and lots of work. All the things that make people ...well...people. Raise your glasses to all those junk yard memories ....Miles
