Wow, there's JetSet;

Cleaning up the squeaky bits around here. Sneaking in from the hay fields.

I know 'bout that rain, it prevented another productive day here too. We must not be too far from each other. Hope others had fun doing what they were up to. Seems to me Sputnik had the kids out today, hope the rain didn't spoil that.

That's a cool photo, Goathead. Is that a rail bridge you're under?

Good luck the BWB folks, running events tonight all over the country. Wish I could have gone to Detroit to Theatre Bizarre today. That would have been cool. Think I'll just send in $20 to BWB instead.

The fair was OK, nothing spectacular, but still fun.
It's going to be alright.

Wow, I've never seen a cooling water tower. That really is a cooool image. Looks like the rain we were getting today.

Okay, here's a little cheese to go with Sputnik's cocktails.

Just look at any power plant,,,,, they are the structures that look like they are emitting smoke, by low to the ground, sort of, and it is really water vapor they emit.

Nope. Absolutely clueless here.

Deep breath. Feel the pain, that pit in your stomach. Then feel okay. Feel your life. Feel the wind on your face, the water running through your toes. Then take your next step.

I smell WHISKY!

Hi Crypto, thanks for your message - I went for a walk, that's what I needed. The rain had stopped so I walked around the city for awhile.

So who's pouring the whisky. Ygmir, I think you handled that whole shindig just fine. Help yourself to the snacks, for sure.

GH are you drinking Home Brew or Vodka? Hard to tell.

Nice bar you run, ygmir. Great photo.

That shaving cream song reminds me of campfire singalongs. I wonder if anyone does that at the burn. Used to know all those ol' ditties. They might work better at a quieter event though. The thump thump might be difficult to overcome.

Crypto's got some great videos there. Have to poke around more on YouTube. I tend to go there to get something specific rather than to explore.

Hmmmm, wonder if that is a Canadian thing?
Most of my wandering have been with the sole intent of getting LOST, just to see what I would find.

welcome back to the bar, Simon

Sounds like Risky tore up the downtown Reno at the BWB event. Gosh, I really should have gone over to Detroit tonight that sounded like fun. Next year.

What can I serve you, Simon? There seems to be lots of choice today.
