Posted especially for Mike’s mom. Photo taken July 19, 2025, at Knob Peak, Shasta County, Northern California of some Great Mullein flowers. I am sure that these bugs working over the flowers have always thought the saying should be “busy as a “bee”tle! #wildflowers #photography #nature #beetles

The Great Walmart Duck Incident

One day, I had a sudden craving for Peking duck. Not just any duck, real duck. The kind that makes your ancestors proud. So I went to Walmart. Mistake number one. Walmart, I have learned, is not a store.

I have no regrets about my trip to Egypt, it was a wonderful experience. The only challenge I encountered was with the network connectivity, which would occasionally disconnect and take some time to restore😅

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Finally hung this lovely mama dragon, drawn by my uncle around 1975, long before he, and later I, became a parent of twins

"This fierce peregrine mom was patrolling her territory to provide a safe airspace for her newly fledged babies. I thought she was going to attack a few gulls that flew close, but she decided to take a hard right and turn around, offering a rare face-to-face moment with the camera."
