Byron, I’m sorry Simon is having some issues, looks like you’re giving him a very good life and lots of love.

We have gone several years now without any pets,
I get my dog and cat “fix” at my Sister’s home and my buddy Steve’s place.
The cycle of fun, love and joy is short and the heart ache of them aging and passing is always very difficult, you have been going through a lot lately it seems.☹️

I’m hoping you’re seeking medical help with the BP-

I’ve been fighting that too, my systolic numbers are too high and I just recently had my meds adjusted- still too high in the morning even though my heart rate is kind of low.
My wife is the opposite, low BP and fast heart rate.
Opposites attract 🤷🏼*♂️


Using the same unit you do too-

Cama Beach on Camano Island used to be a fishing resort, fell on hard times and disrepair, now part of the parks department and well cared for- plus you can rent the cabins if you don't mind a short walk for a shower or restroom

3-26-24.
North Cascades again, and again.

A week later my wife and I were on various Hawaiian islands for 3 weeks.
I got good and warmed back up.

Rocket,
Looks like a great trip, catching lots of spots I have yet to see-

Maui, New Years eve, 2023.
Our Son flew in from LA and joined us for Christmas through New Years day.
He had to go home and back to work, it's always bitter-sweet when we part with him.

We consoled ourselves by hopping over to Molokai for another week

Chassis dolly got away from me and took my down.

Guess that is what I get for trying to be productive instead of drinking a beer and watching Le Mans

Happy Father's day gents!

I came downstairs this morning and thought there was a bat on our front door.
Polyphemus Moth, part of the Silk moth family.
They grow up to a 6" wingspan and eat almost any plant as a caterpillar.

That's the biggest moth I've ever seen in the PNW that was not pinned to a board in a museum
