It’s funny how many people never see the artwork a Vandenberg launch leaves in the early morning sky.

One of the 1984 Mt. St. Helens eruptions

Digitizing a bunch of my old slides from years gone by, this one was from my bedroom window in Everett Washington. It woke me up... anything that can jolt a queen size waterbed from 150 miles away is worth paying attention to.

More from 84

My motorized collection... 100 HP 1967 bug with independent rear air shocks and healthy anti-sway bars and my 1982 90 hp CB900F.
Wish I still had the bike.

My 72 911 handles and accelerates MUCH better than the old Bug.

That B-17 tail wheel pic is very cool, Chris - thanks!

I bought a new shovel today. Only $30 at my irrigation supplier (list is approx. $60). Will use it for irrigation repairs and maintenance. It's a Corona - and if you were not aware - they have come out with a very nice array of hand tools for outdoor projects.
