Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

In our canal today
https://www.chron.com/neighborhood/...lanned-for-manatee-in-Trinity-Bay-5915077.php There have been several manatees over the years that somehow made it to the Houston area....the first was 27 years ago when a manatee swam up the Houston Ship Channel and was hanging out near a warm water discharge at a sewage plant. The second was in 2014 when one was spotted swimming in a canal near a hot water discharge from a refinery in Baytown. Both made the trip in the winter and both were rescued and I believe returned to Florida. Crazy stuff....

This one was taken April 1985. It snowed one night and I had parked facing into the wind. Next morning I started the car and thought, gee it sounds quiet. I opened the hood and found this. There is a 455 in there and it was running when I took the pic

Another Lava Maker? Think of it as Mother Nature sending a Message to Humans, that they really don't own the Planet. In fact they are more like Parasite to it

Fireworks last night in Nashville. Anchored up with a couple hundred of our best friends, and had a nice night with bright colors ... and a little Lee Greenwood from somewhere on the shoreline.

Happy 4th y'all.

i thought nashville was tonight?
Nashville Shores last night. Not as big a show, but right over the water and easy to get to and from at night. I have never boated into watch the Nashville show on the Cumberland. Always thought it would be cool ... but gettin' back out would be crazy I think.
