Memorial Day

Three things today, first was the find show below in the first picture 12.5 Lbs of cleaned Sulphur Chicken before it was picked.

This is a picture of what vandals did to a gate that protects state land from the idiots that insist on driving where they do not belong. The trails they drive on are not wide enough for the trucks so there is plenty of damage to the trees along the trail when the trucks run them over.

The third thing was dinner. Wild mushroom (seen above) and onion stuffed pork loin cooked on the grill. Absolutely delightful.

Saturday Morning Walk

Cool and rainy here in southern Michigan. The Saturday walk in the Game area was wet and quiet. There were plenty of birds and spring flowers to photograph. Knowing it would be a low light day I packed my small tripod and monopod. But even with this the colors are dull due to the weather and I was not happy with the results.

But all is not lost, I did find a fresh Sulphur Chicken (Laetiporus) it was only ten ounces after cleaning. But that is good for this early in the season.

F'ing Idiot's

When will people use thier heads? Bitch about gas prices and drive thier SUVs and Pickups 70mph in a 55mph zone.

Well that sums up this blog, except for my photography.

Bitching about drivers and driving, and pictures.
