    Tuesday with Alfie

    The road there was fine, John. No flooding at all. I think things might get hairy there during severe tides, though. Oji. Yer on to something. Voodoo is something Alfie certainly would doodoo. He's mean. Turtle ... thanks! If the images cause a pitter-pat, then you definitely owe...

    Tuesday with Alfie

    Thanks, Andy. Yes. That's the East Point Lighthouse. It was the last stop of the day. I'd taken a clumsy spill in a Belleplain State Forest stream soon before visiting East Point, so I was extraordinarily frozen when I exposed myself to the sturdy bay breeze. "Hello, Lighthouse! ...

    Google Street View Incident

    Well. I find this all very fascinating. Having spent the past couple of hours basically walking alongside a beautiful fjord in Norway, I'm thinking this is the coolest thing I've seen on the Internet. Back to my virtual road walk.

    Music for the day

    Literally fell in love with this artist after when she performed this piece on Letterman ... decades ago. I've spent quite some time trying to find a recording to post here from another piece from the same album; it's a simple, beautiful song called Deep Space and it ends this way: Where the...

    Time Lapse Photography

    Enjoyed! This must require a ton of patience, Pancoast. Or a lot of relaxation. Guess it depends on how one looks at it. :)

    Blizzard Hunt

    Scott, Thanks so much for this; especially the photos. These are downright breathtaking. Wondering if any of the roads in Wharton are passable now? I'm thinking about riding up on Tuesday. Carranza Rd. to the memorial, maybe? I'd love to beat around somewhere up there. Bill

    Tuesday with Alfie

    Thanks, Glo. We spent more time on all-fours on this trip than on any other. My forehead is covered with brier-produced scratches -- looks like I had a battle with my miserable cat, and lost. Alfie has finally landed a job, so it looks like the Tuesday with Alfie adventures have reached a...

    Makepeace Lake Wildlife Management Area Alfie and I made peace, so we traveled to the Makepeace Lake area in celebration, where the madman proceeded to drag me through some of the most miserable territory we have ever explored together. When the day was over, I refired him...

    Survival shelter

    Yeah! Cool find, indeed. I think I was behind you on Carranza Rd. this morning, Ed. Was that your pick-up accompanied by trotting dogs, about 8am? :) Was tempted to follow you back to Batona Camp and introduce myself. Bill

    Tuesday with somebody else I've fired Alfie. The bum doubled his modeling rate. Thanks for filling in nicely, Pat. :)

    Tyndall Island Hike, Large Scat

    We saw the same benchmark during a recent visit. This is the spot where the tide will getcha. Virtually no water here when crossing while heading out. It couldn't have been much more than an hour later when we faced this. A couple of trip reports and other photos from T.I. are on the...

    Stone Searching

    This is a huge understatement. Enjoyed this thread, but I wonder how a day can be spent with Alfie and nary a photo of him posted? Boo. Hiss. Isn't the camera naturally drawn toward him? :)

    friendship Today's original plan had to be aborted due to road conditions ... they're rather horrible throughout the barrens. A simple ride to and hike around the bogs of Friendship was eventually decided upon. Thanks for looking and good night. :) Rockville Road impassable. The bogs...

    Bob, These are great. Thanks for posting them. The old place sure serves up some seasonal flavors, doesn't it? Wow on the contrast between the heat of summer and dead of winter. I love all the green vegetation "taking over" in your shots. Since the mansion is so close by to my home, I...
