Pic Of The Day

I can take one. Just didn't seem like much to take a photo of 🤔. I'll take some pictures when she is working tomorrow and making templates for the side panels.

My wife ordered some fall decorations for the house from my daughter’s school. Figured I’d take the Land Cruiser out for a drive and pick everything up. It was packed to the gills with 2 corn stalks, 4 bails of hay, 6 mums and a bunch of pumpkins 😂.

Well, this was unexpected!
We just got to see the Northern lights in our own backyard!
They weren’t that intense, the phone really brings them out.

Definitely not a normal thing for this area but definitely cool

We took the boat out for a friends birthday and did a BBQ and stayed the night. The next morning the vis had moments of just about zero but cleared real quick and got to 80.

@aero3113 looks like the tooth fairy has been by recently. What’s the going rate for a baby tooth these days?

aero3113

LoL!
@Pat310 we’re not sure what the going rate is 😂. The night it came out we only had a $5 bill handy. So that’s what she got. I just looked quickly and the national average is around $5.84 for 2024.

Our local (Canadian) fairy pays $10 but that’s about $5.84 USD so the math is kosher.

@aero3113 for a moment I thought the cockpit picture was your latest helm design...

@rasbury that would be pretty cool if that was my helm design 😂

If I had space for an overhead switch panel, you know I'd have one!  

Ian

You’re an engineer, you’ll work it out.

Can't wait to see  it @LaRea

Looks like I’m down another $5!

Boat eye candy for a Wednesday.  Diane went into the engine room to plug in a power tool battery.  Came back up and said "Dude.  SERIOUSLY?!?  Your engine room has a headliner, and it's as pretty and clean as the rest of the boat?!"

One more bit of eye candy.  Just after sunrise on this chilly morning, a guy was fishing in Lake Barkley near Green Turtle Bay Marina where I'm staying.  He's 400 yards away, so I grabbed the good camera and stuck my head out the sunroof to get the shot.  The structure on the right is just a mooring cell where barges tie up, but it looks ominous.

Great shot! Does give me 2001: Space Odyssey monolith vibes.

@LaRea you need to tell everyone that the structure is a submarine!

New title:  "Bass Fisherman Races Submarine in Giant Pool of Dry Ice"

BTW I didn't do much retouching on that pic.  No iPhone magic needed!  The colors are exactly how it looked to my eyeballs, and I'm excited the camera captured them.

A Diesel engine that doesn’t leak oil. What is that.
