Watching the news this morning (in my life-long desire to expand my horizons) I heard a new term to add to my vocabulary; clotted cream. As with all ...

I guess my invitation got lost in the mail so I won't be attending. Best wishes though to KC3.

I have eaten everything on that list at least twice, and a whole bunch of other stuff not on the list. Limburger only once. My waistline reflects th...

Tidy little hamlet I must say. From my armchair GE tour I noticed that heading west out of town there's a "Lake Road". I had to zoom out a bit but f...

@jitterboogie Beets are my nemesis. It is definitely a personal thing though as I see plenty of people that love them. As for me, no thanks. My g...

It all looks good since I didn't see beets on the list. You could chase me to Antarctica with a bowl of beets.

What a coincidence. I just took a break here from putting together a survey that has that same BS. Deed calls a bearing of N00°49'19"W on the secti...

@holy-cow I've been looking, but nothing has surfaced as of yet.

Wow. I'm almost at a loss for words. TM and I came up in the same surveying gene pool in the late '70s. He worked for Topographic Engineering and I...

The "rust" and discoloration on the sun-screen probably came from the salt on the operator's hands. That's pretty common on brass tools for the areas...

@stlsurveyor I had a good run for a number of years with an AP engineering consultant. 9/11 changed a lot of protocols around air strips, both cont...

I don't see the problem there. That looks to me to be a genius idea. I wholeheartedly agree. One would be amazed at how well those automati...

Wow. I guess Al and I share more than a love of flying...I really don't remember posting that story. But there it is, right down to the pop machine ...

Good experience is expensive. A working title for Uncle Paden’s memoirs. Indeed. The world will miss out on a lot if those memoirs aren't pu...

@chris-mills Therein lies everything I enjoy about surveying at my age. I have over a half-century of experience from which I draw. And relating t...
