Nice pic. Very elegant.
You have two seasons, right? Rainy and hot? Just curious. I've never been there. Very soon that bottom land where I was standing will be full of water and mosquitos. |

Forth rail bridge. 123 years old still handles 190+ trains a day. 64,800 tons of steel used to make it, ten times as much as the Eiffel tower. 7 years to build. Cost the lives of 63 men and Outlasted the 1960's forth road bridge which is now being replaced. Cost £2.5 million in 1890. Pretty cool. |
Cool indeed, Aidan.

scozim, write a full report for us all. You look fit!

Wonderful symmetry! The top tube between the two fork blades gives a sort of floating-in-space feeling to the fork. What frame is that? And what fork crown?

The snails here in San Jose are quite impressive. I've taken quite a liking to the curious little critters.
Sure beats the tarantulas in New Mexico! |

Saw it on the way home from school, looked pretty cool. |
yes, those are morning glories. I was amazed how quickly they grey from seedlings just a few months ago. We moved into our new place in mid april. That's just two months of growth.
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-E...5F8A453EB5.JPG the place really looked like a prison yard with the rocks and zero vegetation, but we've effectively changed that. everything here was seeded at the same time. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-H...E3D1CFD6BA.JPG i only regret that i never did get around the planting tomatos, which I've been saying i'm going to do for three years now. |
Mating cicadas

A Tuscan Cicada near our Villa in Volterra.
They were everywhere in the olive grove. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7136/7...9b7d8e1e_b.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8423/7...f0a639c9_b.jpg |

That's a beauty. How many pounds? What did you catch her on? What I call my "skinny" Clouser. Made with slinky synthetics instead of buck tail. Very small and sparse. http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/...psaf92c031.jpg |
Wait a minute! You have a Villa in Volterra? My oh my. I think I remember seeing a pic of it on here but still....:)
We loved Volterra. |
