Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Great pic, Tyson! :thumbsup:

Eggs Benedict and a flat white? :D :thumbsup:

Are flat whites common in the UK, Jack? Some places here will have them, but I think Duncan had to educate just about every waitress we had in Oregon. 🤣 It wasn’t until we were at the Portland airport leaving Oregon that he found a place that could make one.

Good morning, Guardians! Jack, that looks delicious. I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday.

Interesting choice of utensil for bacon flipping, Dave. 😁
 
Doh! I accidentally hit post on my last my last post before I was done catching up. I’ve had a lot of trouble using the text field on BF on my phone recently (no doubt a result of the recent iOS update, which has been generally terrible and full of bugs). 🙄

I can see it Gary, but only because I am using a VPN (which currently places me in Holland). If I turn it off, I can't see your pic, or any of Jer's :(

Sorry you have to jump through hoops just to use the forum like normal, Jack, although I think using a VPN in general is probably a good thing that everyone should be doing.

Jack I just downloaded that book on Teddy Boys. I read a few pages and I know it’ll be a good read. I don’t think it’ll help in my study of Tool Man behavior. He looks to always be an amusing enigma.

I grabbed my Barrett this morning to tote on my walk. I arrived before sunrise.

Great pics! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Having finished my deck washing and sealing project last week, I got back on the Dakota Rail Trail today for another 4 mile walk. It was sunny but cool today, in the low 60s (the warm temps we’ve had the last few weeks finally dropped off over the weekend).

As I’ve mentioned before, the further west you go on this trail, the more rural it gets. The 2-mile stretch I covered today didn’t go through any towns, and all I passed were farms and fields. This made parking interesting; I ended up just parking on the side of the county road that runs alongside this part of the trail.

I’ve also noticed, unsurprisingly, that the further out on the trail I get, the less people I encounter. Today I parked near the Mile 24 marker and walked back to the Mile 22 marker without encountering a single person. Then, as I turned around at Mile 22, I saw what would end up being the only other person I saw on the trail today: a cyclist on a recumbent bike who bore an uncanny resemblance to waynorth waynorth ! 😁

I had my Stag HHB with me today. I saw probably 50 of these wooly bear caterpillars on the trail today, to the point that I was actively looking out for them so I didn’t step on any. I have to say, if you’re supposed to be able to predict the severity of the coming winter based on their colors, they can’t seem to come to an agreement. I saw ones ranging from all brown to almost all black. 🤨

Jack, I bet a Côte du Rhône milkshake would be pretty good!
LOL! :D I did check out their wine list, maybe another time :D ;) :thumbsup:
Tool Man and the blue angels.!
LOL! :D Note that, rather than the 'heid the baw' Glasgow chapter, Tool Man was in the small, and decidedly tamer, Leeds chapter :D
A lovely example Steve, great pic :) :thumbsup:
Thanks Jack ! I did it was a beautiful fall day again today 👍






Glad to hear you got a proper milkshake ! 👍
That's great to hear my friend :) I never had one as a kid, and I'm pretty sure that, as an adult, I've only ever bought them for my children :) The one I had came with some small pretzels stuck in the cream, and had coffee and fudge sauce, as well as ice cream, whipped cream, and milk :D Nice to have a new experience at my age! 😂 👍

Sure it does an excellent job Dan :) :thumbsup:

I'm glad he got one in the end :D They're very common here Barrett, but Duncan still educated every waitress anyway :D ;) "Er..We have this thing back home...it's called a flat white?" 🤣 ❤️👍

Thanks buddy, but you're probably right :thumbsup:

LOL! :D Interesting about the caterpillars mate :D Thanks for taking us along on another hike, that looks like wonderful weather :) :thumbsup:
Needed some rags
Just the ticket! :cool: :thumbsup:
 
Good morning Guardians, I have nothing planned for today, but I could with taking care of a few domestic chores :rolleyes: I do need some bread, so I'll probably head into town at some point, maybe pick up a few other groceries too ;) Hope everyone is well, and that you have a good day :) :thumbsup:

I changed my mind about commenting on this.

I had yesterday off, for unknown reasons, but I'm glad I did, because we had about fifteen district and regional inspectors general visiting. How anybody at any level is supposed to get anything done with all these exalted personages yapping at their heels every ten minutes is a mystery to me.

I tackled my run-amok wild cherry. I have a well-stuffed bin of yard waste ready for pickup, so I hope it isn't too well packed to shake out.
I have some older stuff lying around that I'll get out before I cut more of the wild cherry. It won't rot right away from my ragged cutting.

Yes indeed, I was shocked when I discovered how much people pay for them! :eek: Both Wolfie and Matt are keen cyclists, but Matt takes it really seriously. I forget how much he paid for his last bike, but it was over £5,000 :eek: Great shot of that beauty my friend :) :thumbsup:
Have a great day Jack !
Thanks pal, I got to have coffee and chocolate cookies for Wolfie, and he was even on time! :eek: :D :thumbsup:
I like that motto Jack.
That could be Wolfie's motto Bob! :D :thumbsup:
Good morning Guardians !

Woke up to 34° this morning but it going to be another lovely sunny fall day here 👍
