The driver's narration "shall not be infused with profanities."
... I wonder if the driver was at least able to say, "Oh, foop!" when he discovered the passenger that smuggled on the goat.?
A junco that dreams of big ducks
Probably also likes trucks
A Tacoma? A Ram?
"He don't give a damn!",
Said chicken in 2 or less clucks.
I'm sure the duck was waiting for just the right moment to flash that flashy wing!
4 years agoHi Scott & Rachael,
Well I for one am cheering on your quest for Croatia. We're all desperately needing to dive vicariously into a cycling tour of Europe. Fingers crossed for you. Surely to god your dangerous orange monster from hell won't be voted in again. It seems like he's crucifying himself at every turn. Here's hoping for that also!
Thanks for the prompt, Suzanne. That’s why I took this photo, but then forgot to follow up.

4 years agoLooks like it, alright. Its odd name comes from the fact that its papery bark peels off in long, thin layers, so I’ll look for that the next time I see this.

Interesting process for the Croatia tour!
Can't wait to read what happens next.
Looks perfect!
4 years agoIf Team Anderson continues to roll through adversity for 32 more years, we can all get through this goll-darned pandemic and whatever other adversities life throws our way.
Go Team Anderson!
So is wishing another 32 a blessing, or a curse?
4 years agoYou two are an inspiration.
Rolling through adversity, savoring the curiosity of adventure, always finding the beauty and humor, and last but not least .. slaying the Capital One Dragons!
Here's to the next 32!
Two opportunities to say "Oh Foop!" in one post.
4 years agoSorry to read this latest wrinkle in the Croatia plan!
If there were a supreme location in which to quarantine and you could figure out the logistics of it all, would you consider that option?
If there were a lab with reliably predictable timing for test results, I suppose that option could work(?)
We know someone here that got tested recently and they told her results would take 5-7 days and it actually took 3 or 4 days.
