That’s my little girl, Brandy. She’s a 10 year old Maltipoo. A cross between a Maltese and a Poodle.

She’s a sweet girl with a great disposition. Her sister (cousin) Yuki and her are great companions and have joined us on several LD journeys. They are great with children and amazingly still love to play with all their toys.

Thanks for asking. Here’s a pic of them rock climbing in Yosemite Valley a few years ago.

LOVE me some Standard Poodles!! Most amazing dogs.

You know what they say…. When you have guests over for Card Night.......

Your Golden will greet them properly, your Aussie will seat them properly and your GSD will guard them properly, however your Standard Poodle will expect to be dealt a hand.

I don't recall if I have posted this shot previously.  I was sorting and culling last night and this shot makes me smile.  It was taken at Scammon's Lagoon last year in Baja California, Sur. 
With hands and camera in the water, there was lots of bumping, petting, and physical interaction.  Mother whales pushed their calves up to the pangas to interact with the people.  A little calf briefly placed my free hand into its mouth with all the baleen.  Although that was startling, the entire activity is an endearing activity.
If I posted it previously, it is a rerun. It still makes me smile.

This image is absolutely stunning!  What camera did you use?... Bravo!

Thank you Bill.  That praise means a lot, coming from you.  I always admire and enjoy your photos.

It was shot with a Nikon D500 in a Sea and Sea housing.  20mm Nikon lens and a dome port.  Available light.

The dome is fragile and expensive, so every time a whale squashed my hands and camera between the panga and its body, I was concerned.  But the boat yielded in the water and the whales didn't make any quick or aggressive moves, so no damage was done.

We were there with a Scripps Institution of Oceanography group, which was a lot of fun with interesting people.  I used to work there.  My buddies went down at the same time with a Brazilian woman who had obtained Mexican government permits to swim with the whales to get better photos.  Only when they were in the water did they discover that under the gray whales were white sharks looking for a slow calf and an easy meal...

We were more relaxed than they were.

John, did some digital art painting work - ups of the picture with the standard poodle, here's a couple. PM me if you want them or the others. They make great, color rich, 5 x 7 cards, on just about any color printer.

Thinking of making this into a poster. Still thinking of the perfect caption.
"Where no man has biked before" maybe.

How about:  "And I thought my gophers were bad...."

Just your garden variety beauty. Shot this Passion Flower or Crucifixion Flower just outside my kitchen window.

One of my favorite flowers. The fruit is very interesting.

One of my food images ..... <smile> I'm only allowed in the kitchen with a camera.   If you eat anything I cooked you'd know why.

Glen,

Strategic incompetence.  I admire that.

I'm still not allowed to do laundry (early event washing her red and white things together), and I wasn't required to change diapers as my early attempts were worse than clumsy and I didn't improve.  What a disappointment.

I believe this 'fail' could be termed 'calculated situational incompetence'!  ;)

A Peruvian lady prepares a guinea pig , or "cuy", for the evening meal. These domesticated animals are a staple food in the Andes Mountains. They are considered to be livestock and are often raised in small pens just outside the kitchen area.

I discovered this hint in the 'New Husbands Handbook', handy for those who don't want to do laundry, always mix white undies with a bright red shirt.
It worked for me.

Harold, I went to the IRS website and it showed the date it was scheduled to be deposited to my account. I actually received it yesterday, a day early!

Some early camping days on the Baja peninsula...fun times! Here is my son on a 100 mile dirt road that crosses the peninsula through the Sierra Gigante Mountains from the Sea of Cortez side to the Pacific Ocean. I spent over twenty years with my son and later my daughter trying to circumnavigate the peninsula, bit by bit, with a 12 foot aluminum boat that we could carry down to the water and launch anywhere. The trailer allowed me to have enough water, gas, and canned food to survive  "off the grid" for about two weeks before we had to resupply.

Bill,
We had the same rig!  1985 F250 4x4 8 foot bed with a Callen camper and a jungle rack.  Jimmy Callen traded me the steel frame camper shell for private SCUBA lessons for his family.  We pulled a big Zodiac on a trailer all over Baja for about 15 years. Cyndy and the kids would sleep inside to stay away from the scorpions and I slept up top on the rack.

Those were fun trips and always an adventure.

Warren ...I was fortunate to meet Neil Kelly before he passed away. A great man who graciously shared his decades of knowledge with many of us. I learned a lot from him and his book...
