I am unsure where I found this image of a US Civil War prison camp survivor. One reason I put this image here is- I only recently discovered that there are images like this available of men like him but you would be hard pressed to find anybody who has read more about the war than me. Bonus information: some of the pictures available are well documented- we know their names and whether the soldier survived or died soon afterward etc. but nothing is known about this poor soul.




It seems harvester ants are making a comeback. This mound was a few feet from a fire ant mound- although fire ants are blamed for the red ants decline. Also I see them where I did not in the past. 

Pink grade whisker on soccer field in Weatherford America. It may be there to mark the exact center of the field.

A favorite bird. Those things are all around Sunshine Lake and the trailway.

Maybe not the worst toilet in Scotland but the worst I have ever seen in the state parks system. Gag.

Poorly designed, placed and maintained culvert. #covfefe!

How do thingss like this get torn up? Anyway, it is because of people who do things like that- we can't have anything nice.

The view has always pleased me- it is not grand or perfect or anything. It is just mildly pleasing.

Thought I had finally seen a wild red snapper

until we got closer and it turned over for a belly rub.


The filters on my phone are still cool to experiment with. It is kinda my thing.

They should put an exclamation mark at the end of TROPICAL THUNDER.

That is more like it.

Probably would not be my first purchase if I won the lottery but it would be so close to the top of the list we really should not split hairs and argue like that. I mean holy smokes- behold- the majesty of it. It is glorious.

Smoked meatloaf wrapped in bacon with chopped bacon and mozzarella cheese inside

I'm sorry- you will have to excuse me. Sniff- I am getting a little emotional right now and can't talk anymore about this.
