I fell back to the old classic of the hand carved turkey club… Salmon was on special today…but it was just so hot I wanted a cold sandwich. Stupid me though, I forgot to order the potato salad and ended up with fries instead.
Been away from home this week. My wife sent me a photo of going into the garden last week…
…
He appears to be a considerate bear…not taking up the loungers…
At least he’s comparatively fun size.
Just lookin for picnic baskets, Yogi
A drill?
Honestly it looks like one of those aeroplane, to me, but what do I know…
Now i understand, he just came by to say

He was Baby Bear #3, there was an equally fun sized Brother Bear (Disney, you getting all this, it’s gold) plus an apparently massive Momma. She barely(?) fit in the lounger, but by then the dog was going ballistic so the photos look like a blurry F/A-18C at a games conference sighting, so not much to see there… ![]()
Aaah… The air never feels as fresh as it does after rainfall!
Oh yes! ~30°C down to ~20°C. The storm lasted for about 1.5h. It had everything: hail, heavy rain, incredibly strong gusts of wind, constant lightning. But then it was gone in a heartbeat, completely calm, sun out, only light cloud cover. I immediately got my bike out to ride for about 1h. If it wasn’t for all the crap on the roads and the damp air you wouldn’t have known what happened just an hour ago.
What a gorgeous place Cib!
Calm, 26°C, perfect for a quick ride.
Somewhere along the Rhine:
First day of vacation! And apparently my Mudspike anniversary is today so however shitty the picture, I’m still gonna post it.
A jog-hike up to good ol’ Tango Romeo Oscar VOR.
Just 160m height, but steep enough to get the
pumping.

Where we found and adopted the newest member of our family…“Saluda” the cat…
