Yes, that was one of our stops. One of the nicest beaches on the island, IMO. My poor old white skin was under a constant barrage. I think I own stock in sunscreen now, LOL

I admit it - I love fruity drinks, preferably with a chunk of pineapple and an little umbrella on the rim. It also helps if I'm drinking them while at a swim-up pool bar...

I agree. IMO Eagle Beach is next best. Did you try Polar beer?

Thanks! My wife tolerates me (I married up), and our son is a solid citizen! What more could a man want from life?

You should have that sunset photo enlarged, matted and framed. Simply beautiful.

Thank you Charlie. Those sunsets are so amazing there, hard to take a bad picture (although I did my best). 5 years ago, I would never have used a phone camera for my vacation pics. They have come a long way since then. In fact, I never took my "regular" camera out while we were there.

This what I started about a week ago, replacing some broken blades on our old disk harrow. Got the blades replaced and the axle nuts tightened and when I get enough energy, I'll try to hang the axle assemblies back under the frame. This used to be a fairly easy job, changing broken blades and replacing bad bearings but somehow it ain't near as easy as it used to be. Never have been fortunate enough for a blade to break next to the out side.

Jerry, there is a small town south of Marianna, Florida named Altha. There is a family owned business called Masters Farm Supply, they had plenty of blades and reasonably priced too! Quite a difference between them and Tractor Supply ::facepalm:: !

Scored this from estate sale yesterday. It'll be my shadow box and hope to have it filled some day, although as you all know I don't "persue collecting knives". But the shadow box I currently have is full.

This yellow headed Cardinal anomaly turned up in Alabama. Could its mama have fooled around with a gold finch?

Quick Steel: Very nice "bokeh" on your picture (Since you are clearly an accomplished photog, I'm going to assume you know that term), what camera and lens did you use for this birdie pic?

Nice printers tray, Scott. I have one also, but never have got around to filling it and hanging it. Maybe this will turn you into a collector. ::shrug::

This anomalous Cardinal turned up in Alabama. Wonder if his papa was a goldfinch.

Is that a drawer handle on the left hand side? Was that a drawer out of something? Printers tray (from a printers cabinet) as Glenn suggested?
