Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Jack Black]

Holy smokes, sounds amazing, Jack. Always did appreciate the crunch of a chip on a sandwich

Thanks buddy So do I, I don't know why I don't think of it more often, been ages!

 

[JohnDF]

Then you may as well stay home. I coming through Texarkana right now.

Drat! Foiled again.

You can get a haircut on a Sunday?

Yup, and limited hours on the holidays.

Sounds like you have a wonderful evening planned

Best laid plans and all... but it should be fun.

I haven't seen a goat at the mall yet, you might set a trend.

Sounds like a great day, John.

Thanks, it should be relaxing and fun.

Good luck my friend

Splendid!

After feeding the goats, we had to let them take us for a short walk! That was a new experience

THE FAMILY THAT SLAYS TOGETHER, STAYS TOGETHER!

Castleton is dominated by the 11th century Peveril Castle, from which the village takes its name, and to a slightly lesser extent, by Mam Tor (Mother Mountain (or Hill) in Old Norse), which is part of a ridge-line, known locally as The Great Ridge.

Hope you don't mind Jack. The Great Ridge a few winters back.

I hope everyone is having a good day Hre's a few pics from my trip to York, to Jorvik Viking Festival, including a few of the World's Strongest Viking Competition!

They changed the dates then? It used to be in February.

it's got to the point where I'm forgetting the names of people I've known for decades, or failing to recognise them. Obviously this is very embarrassing, but it's also distressing.

I'd get this checked out.

Images intrigue, Details?

Sorry for the late reply, a friend of mine fell ill suddenly and I've been away.
It's the Vulcan bomber outside the AVRO Heritage Museum in Woodford, Greater Manchester.

Avro Heritage Museum | Aviation | Woodford | Stockport

The Avro Heritage Museum is an aviation museum on the old Woodford airfield near Stockport and south of Manchester, Cheshire.

www.avroheritagemuseum.co.uk

AVRO were one of the UK's major aircraft manufacturers for almost 100 years. They built the famous WWII Lancaster bomber and the Vulcan bomber, which before Polaris, was the mainstay of the UK's nuclear deterrent. That's 603, one of only 3 Vulcans remaining. They were the finest post-war bomber ever built; the story being that on trials in the U.S in 1960/1961 the USAF were amazed by it's performance. It basically flew rings around them.
No one ever understood why the USAF didn't adopt the Vulcan, as they did with the AVRO Canberra (the last photo is in the preserved Canberra cockpit), but I'm sure it was something to do with politics. And stupidity. And politics....

The Canberra cockpit is right. To the left is a mock up (using all original Lancaster components) of a Lancaster that an ex-Lancaster ground crew chap built for £20,000. Pretty bloody interesting to get even a modicum of an idea of what my grandad flew in, in WWII. He must of had some real brass ones to do that.

The British Commercial Vehicles Museum in Leyland, Lancashire.

Niece’s graduation was this week so some of my wife’s family is in town from Minnesota and they wanted to take a day trip up to Tahoe. We hung out at Camp Richardson and had some rum runners. Then we went to Emerald Bay. On the way out of town we went to check out Echo Lake. One of my favorite places on Earth! It’s an amazing place, I’m so glad it was sparred by the Caldor Fire.

Echo Lake is at its maximum capacity and then some!!!

Carried my HHB today. It’s a great one!

 

[bigfish64]

Thanks for the kind words Jack.

Haha, that’s awesome, look great

Good morning Guardians, my apologies for my tardy appearance, but I'm afraid I'm busy earning a crust! To honour US Memorial Day, I thought I'd carry this old Needham Lambsfoot, kindly gifted to me by Duncan Campbellclanman . Have a good day Guardians, and I hope your week gets off to a good start. I'll catch up later

That's very thoughtful of you Jack. Thanks!

Good morning Guardians and a happy Memorial Day to all. Today I remember my late father who fought in WWll. Landed on Omaha Beach on D day. Wounded in the Battle of the Bulge, convalesced in England and rejoined his unit 8 weeks later. Purple Heart and Bronze Star Medals. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I will be carrying my HHB and also a pocket knife given to me by my dad almost 45 years ago.

 

[black mamba]

Taylor, what happens when the maximum level is exceeded? Do the echos stop until the water level behaves itself??

Seriously, though, a very beautiful site!

 

[JohnDF]

That all turned out great and looks so yummy... Smoked Meat is like my favorite food in the world. Better than ice cream, cake, and pie, or anything else.

Great pictures, Taylor.
Glad you were able to get up there and enjoy it.
Tahoe is such a beautiful place, I'm glad the fire never reached it.
I'm also glad it didn't head the other direction and effect you more personally.

A very appropriate carry for today, Jack.
It's extra cool that there is an old Lambsfoot with a US Navy stamp being preserved.
