Those are great, just what I needed!!!

Those porpoises are fun to watch swimming just a head and behind the boat. I'll have to look, but I think I have some video of them chasing our boat. We did get to go to Denali!! Took the extended tour that went something like 92 miles into the park on old school busses, not a very comfortable ride. We became members of the 30% club (according to our driver), got to see Denali in all her glory without a cloud in the sky. It would be great to take a ski plane up there and just listen to the quiet. In Fairbanks we ate at Big Daddy's BBQ ( featured on diner, drive-ins and dives), home of the Northern most Southern BBQ in the country. My wife and my sister got pictures with Santa Claus in North Pole. On my bucket list for our next trip up there is Valdez, driving up to the Artic Circle, and walking under the waterfall at Mendenhall Glacier. I also have a picture of my wife holding Mayor Stubbs....

You are correct. We stayed at the Alaska Saltwater Lodge. We'd stay there again if/when we go back. Took on of their whale watching tours, only 12 people on the boat!!!

One of my favorite pictures from our trip to Alaska in 2012. This is what happens when an eagle gets tired of a crow messing with it. The sea otters would come out and play every evening in the same spot right outside our rooms at the lodge.

If I ever make to Arizona, I'd be there for sure!!!!

Some of my Route 66 pictures, between Tulsa and Vinita Oklahoma... The Blue Whale was a famous swimming hole back in the day. The Gas station is an old DX station, that has been converted to a museum. My tail lights started out nice and clean. By the time we arrived here, the were dirty... Views of what's left of the original road.

I'd love to visit that place. I'll have to find some of my Route 66 pictures....

Sounds like you've got the perfect plan, shop around until you find the perfect one that fits you and your family.

Went out of town for several days. When I got back, I found this growing in the yard...

My favorite from that group.

I've got the same cup!!! Your picture reminded me of this one that I captured while playing with the camera after building a fire pit for my wife. This also is not a photoshop image. I call it Hell's Kitchen Flame.

Looks like you'll be ready for the next car show. Enjoy that beautiful car!!

Beautiful!!!!

Here's a barn on a piece of property up for auction. Taken with my Nikon D5100 F22 1/80 sec ISO 400

Congratulations on your runner up!!

One for fun. Where are those sled dogs??

Hers a picture my son took with his camera phone. He's been out in Arizone working on getting President Eisenhower's Air Force one back into flying condition.

While waiting for my water pump to come back from the rebuilder, I decided to clean up the hot water tube. After 47 years of rust and crud, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. Spent about 1 1/2 hours using Navel Jelly and a red scotchbrite pad to get rid of the rust followed by Metal Polish 1 & 2. First picture is of the tube still on the car, second is of the tube cleaned up.

I think I'm going to try it. Some of the chimes are looking a little dry.

Has anyone tried the quick sealer on wooden (bamboo) wind chimes? Just wondering if it would help protect them from the sun/rain.

Very nice!! You could probably sell some to members here.

Beautifully done!!

Congratulations to winning 3rd place!!!!

George Jetson vehicles of course....

Tim, How do you like the Volt? I've heard that it will be coming back in a year or two. I'm considering the Ford's electric Fusion, but not entirely sold on it yet.
