Air Show 3

Here comes another one

This is the B-17's big brother

The B-29

It was one of these guys that dropped that first A-bomb and ended the war.

She made a few passes so folks could get a good look.

And lastly…

Back on the ground.

Air Show 2

One of the things The Fuzz liked about this Air Show was getting to see some of these old warbirds in the air.

Here come one now

And now a bit closer…

This one is an icon of the 2nd World  War.

The B-17 of course!

The partial cloud cover made for some great pix

You may notice she's got some company in this one…

But that will be for a later post.

And one last look at her on the ground

Air Show

The Fuzz was fortunate to be invited to visit family and attend the Andrews Air Show up at Andrews Air Force Base.

Of course he brought his camera along.

Sooo…

There may be a few pix here.

For this post we'll have a few shots of a P-51 Mustang.

And here's a closer look

We'll see this guy again later…

But next time we'll have a look at one of his bigger brothers.

Another Day… Another Lake

Well it's been awhile again.  This seems to be a trend these days.

So, what's up with The Fuzz?

Well, first he was on "Grandpa Duty" for awhile.

This involved trying to keep up with a wild little granddaughter while her momma was at work.

And this did keep him busy, we assure you.

But he did survive.

When he got back in town there was a bit of gardening to take care of.

And that seems to be doing fine for now.

There had been a good deal of rain around here while he was gone.  It turned out that the water had pooled up on the Molly B's tarp-cover and kinda caved it in.

This sorta bent up the PVC frame for the sun awning.

He's attempting to get things straitened out now.

How well this works remains to be seen.

But he did make it up to the lake yesterday.

And got a look at this guy.

But he didn't stay still for long…

Still dragging the landing gear.

And one last brief look before he was gone.

Sorry the pix aren't better though.

The Fuzz caught a couple of tiny fishes, then spent the rest of the day on a slow exploration cruise.

It turned out to be a nice day.

Lakecamping Backwaters

Although she is not a canoe or kayak, the Molly B can take The Fuzz into those backwaters he enjoys so much.

When the water gets shallow, it's no problem to pull up the motor and get out the oars.

How could he not love a place like this?

Fishing is just an excuse to get out and "Mess About" as it were.

But it seems that his bobber has a stowaway on board!

And that stowaway has plenty of friends around.

Now here's another challenge.

These guys are really beautiful…

But how to catch them in flight?

They're fast!

And just Forget auto-focus…

But it can be done.

And yeah…

They did get the worm while The Fuzz was busy with the camera.

But that's all part of the fun.

Lake Camping

The Fuzz recently got to campout over at Jordan Lake.

Of course he took his little boat along in the hope of doing a little fishing…

Which usually amounts to more like

"Feeding the Fish"

But the weather was nice with no rain, which is always good for camping.

So here are a few pix.

A view of the camp from across the inlet

And a look at The Fuzz's little Molly B complete with sun awning.

And lastly…

The camp after sunset.

The Fuzz has a few more pix of course, and promises to get a few more posted next time.

Incinerator Shoot 5

The Fuzz still has a few more from this Incinerator Shoot.

So here we go…

First the actual furnace…

And…

Some controls perhaps?

Stairway…

To where?

Some kind of latch?

But what about this one?

Is there a story behind this?

Could be kinda dark…

Might be time to get out of here…

There's the door…

The Fuzz thinks it's time to use it.

Incinerator Shoot 4

Here's a few more from this shoot.

Inside now.

And another view…

The Fuzz really liked this old chest.

Next time, we'll have a look at the incinerator itself.

Incinerator Shoot 3

Here's a bit more from The Fuzz's little Incinerator Adventure…

Just for the record…

Here's a look at the place… or what's left of it.

Last time The Fuzz mentioned taking a look downstairs.

To get there we'll have to go out around the place…

And down behind the chimney.

The window "upstairs"

And below

Next…

…A walk around the chimney…

…And behind…

…To the door.

Next time we'll have a look…

…Inside.
