![]() "Elvis" came through yesterday coming from Ely, Minnesota (Boundary Waters fire where it has started raining) headed to Florida for their fun in the sun fires. The things lifts 2,500 gallons at a crack, has a total lifting capacity of 25,000 pounds and makes more noise than any chopper I've yet heard. I found it odd that both of the pilots smoked cigarettes but thought the chopper to be the definition of form following function...that and it's clearly a boy helicopter.

Elvis and his sisters spend their Winter each year 'down under' helping out in the Australian summer with our bush fires.
Truely an sight to behold when they come in to fill up from a dam or pool. Tim

hey wow, I don't think I've ever actually seen a picture of an Envemo before. They are supposed to be a top-notch replica. I read that they made coupes too?

I'm just east of Cal/Neva at Incline Village. Many years ago, a friend of a friend's parents that managed Zepher Cove lived there right on the lake with their own dock and boat. That was some choice guesting. Another pic...

Our old apple tree is starting to blossom for the first time in 3 years.
Last year it only had a few sad leaves, and the arborist told me I might as well cut it down. Glad I never got around to it. ![]()

Corvair, dirty, dented, rusty, messy, missing hubcap and bumpers, blows smoke when it runs and still it's a cool ride.
