I took this pic while camping the past week. It was taken at sunrise, but also there is a full-moon in the west. It was a capricorn moon. https://www.yogajournal.com/lifestyle/astrology/full-moon-in-capricorn-july-2025 A few more pics of the deer triplets. I managed to get all three in a couple pics. All three seem to be healthy. I think they are about 10 weeks old. They are eating grass nicely.

I am planning my week. The weather isn't getting off to a good start with quite a bit of snow in the forecast. I have been recovering from a bad cold. That is three illnesses I have had since I got off the ice. Some say it is because my immune system is off since I was in a realitively germ free environment in Antarctica. I am not sure. I don't like being sick. I do have a lot on my mind but that still didn't keep me from doing nothing today. Sitting around doesn't help the self esteem, but it might recharge the batteries sometimes. I had a nice quiet birthday.
Rosey is doing better but can't quite get up on her own. We are giving her homeopathic cures as well as horse asprin. A heat lamp has helped her too. We shall see as it gets warmer out. She has lost some weight so that is good. The chickens are well and have been cruising the farm, but tonight everyone is in lock-down for weather.
I have been staying in touch with folks from the ice. It is a bit like a fraternity. You have some strong common special experiences. One of the folks is (hopefully) going to fly up here in a couple of months. I haven't met him face-to-face, but he was working commercial radio interests on the other side of the continent and we met up on the ham bands.
I have also found a great way to waste time, looking for interesting videos on youtube. Here is one. The story behind the video is that the control surfaces were locked and not-unlocked for flight.

Beautiful morning on the lake. I needed to put some vents in the basement. It's never about just one thing. The vents through the brick was one thing. Getting a window well to allow proper airflow and a drain to ensure the window well doesn't fill with water are other things. I had some fun with my bobcat and digging in the dirt. I am glad its over. We went out to dinner at the American Legion Post in the neighborhood. It only made sense to drive my M998 and pose next to the tank. The humvee has been my grocery-getter lately.
We have had a new resident. Actually there several new residents. A deer decided to have her kids in the back yard. They are here often. I can see them from my Zoom Room, so I apologize if I seem a little distracted sometimes when I am on a video call. We went canoeing and camping in South Carolina. We were exploring without a lot of planning, so you get what you expect- adventure and discovery. We stopped by the Tallulah Gorge lookout. When I rode my motorcycle through the area in the early 80's, I vowed I would come back. And I have come back-- again. I ate my traditional moon pie there as well. The Tesla is a great camper. Charge the battery, run the AC and enjoy the filtered ventilation with a nice entertainment system. Crazy. The paddleing wasn't that good. We found ourselves in Lake Keowee. The campground was good if you speak Spanish, and only enjoy power sports on small boats. I am a bit disturbed by the new trend of wake boarding. Instead of skiing being towed by...

I see a lot of interesting commercialitems on truck on I-75. When you make the commute many times you start to see the same items over and over again. Sometimes it is huge equipment tires, sometimes heavy equipment of different types. I see these huge blocks of aluminum going North. I think about what the mill must look like and where it is going. And how much aluminum foil a block like this will make. Using the Tesla Full Self-Driving (supervised) allows me to look for these things on the highway. The FSD also helps me through the crazy stop and goes. Easily over 70MPH and then sudden traffic at dead stops, frequently. I see accidents every trip. It is amazing there aren't more. A side note- aluminum foil has a shiny side and a dull side. The reason why is that the foil is folded as it goes through massive rollers. The shiny side is the side that faces the steel roller. The dull side faces itself - aluminum.
