looks like a nice place, Kapitan.

Camaero, I lived in SoCal for a few years, those pics brought back memories

I have no pictures of my house (if I did I probably wouldn't show you creepy internet stalkers) but here's a picture of a bug I took in my backyard on Wednesday.

I think you were talking to me, if so thanks. It is a Fuji s6000FD. The bug shot was at 28mm, f4.5, 1/50sec, iso400, super macro mode.



It is a great little camera for macro work!

You're in Texas, right? Heck Pardner, that's just a good stretch of the legs from Rancho De Los Weehee. come up in late April for the Gathering of Nations Pow-wow or in October for Balloon Fiesta. I got a spare bedroom you can crash at and The Railrunner Commute Train runs all the way to Bernalillo with special balloon fiesta runs. We'll take the AK out for a little plinkin' & I'll show you my sites on top of Sandia Crest & Tesuque Peak. PM me for my phone #.

Thanks for the generous offer. I'll mark my calendar for next April and give you a couple month's advance warning. This will make a great motorcycle trip

I miss the country life......since I don't have any pics of the farm other than a couple goats, it'll have to do.

(btw, these kids were't supposed to happen, it was a breeding accident that turned out some interesting results).





And some kittens that were recently added to the farm by our cat Mish-Mash (pronounced mish-mosh) The kittens names are Mishka, Michiko, and Magali (my sister named them so don't ask me what they mean).

OK. Here are a couple of pics from when my Ku-u-i-Pu & I lived, literally, on the Dock of the Bay in Sandy Beach, Baja Vallejo. This is the place where Jack London was rescued after his drunken swim/suicide attempt down the Carquinez Straits that he wrote about in Chapter 12 of John Barleycorn. The bar where he began that adventure was the same one in Benicia where I sold the local Newspapers when I was 10.



Here's my Fat posterior hanging at #32. You can see the old ammo magazines on Mare Island hill in the background. A few subs have come through here in their time.



My sig picture was taken at #9 Sandy Beach Rd as well. Mt Tamalpais Fujilike across San Pablo Bay.



Here's some pics of our 105-year-old adobe hacienda in Belen/Bethlehem, NM. Outside view of Festung Belen/Rancho De Los Weehee:



The living room. Note the deer antler door handle and rifle loop for fighting off Redlegs, hostiles & other general Owlhoots:



My Kitchen:



My hallway/music room. Notice the buit in bookshelves for my library:



Rancho De Los Weehee in the snow:





Hanging with my Indi'n brothers and sisters at the big Gathering of Nations Pow-wow:
