Quality Control (P365 – 10/16)

We had a slight quality control problem with the Plane Crackers.

Thankfully the rest of the flight went better.

April 19, 1995

October 14 – the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.  More later.

Midway

October 13 – My little world traveller.

On one of our flights, the complimentary peanuts came with this warning:  Produced in a facility that processes peanuts and other nuts. I think that’s kind of the point.

August 14-15

August 14 – Along the New England Southern north of Concord, NH.

August 15 – the American dream.  Five bicycles, a canoe, and a Jeep.

Five roads - P365 for January 17, 2010

A wide state road crosses rolling countryside in the pre-dawn darkness. I roll along at the speed limit, following a dim set of tail lights on the horizon ahead.

Chevy

“Oh crap!” I stomp hard on the brakes as traffic suddenly halts, feeling the ABS grind beneath my foot as 3 tons of towed RV pushes hard against the Suburban. The RV tires chirp but don’t lock up, and I manage to stop without any smoke or action-movie special effects. I also manage to not [...]

Inn at Ellis River

Stayed here for a couple nights away for our anniversary. We hiked down Canon Mtn via the Kinsman Ridge trail and got really beat up. The trail was in horrid shape; I don’t know if it’s from the recent bad weather or just hard use. I guess there’s a reason they recommend you hike UP [...]
