    I have had cats my entire life, and I have never had a single cat that push things off of table, counter, etc.

    I know they do it because I have seen many videos of the action.

    Hey Mark - beautiful photos here! got any details on this comet? I was out riding in the country last night and one of the skymap charting apps said there was supposed to be a comet visible, but I couldn't see it. It would have been in the western sky here. Maybe I needed some slow shutter, time lapse or a telescope. I did just barely make out the Milky Way, though. Looking forward to Winter Skies...

    took a little liberty with this in post processing to bring out some shadow detail and add a little dramatic effect. the second photo is more what it was it like out there just after sunset. This is in NC near the Currituck Sound.
    @Geoff4rfc - took the Buell out for a spin... it's nice out there on the quiet country roads in the eves...

    He’ll be asking us if Spearker Cables matter next and calling his AVR an “amplifier”, or trying to sell junk on the Flea Market without 100 posts. 🤪

    A few images off FB of ranch lands in the panhandle of western Nebraska. The Sandhills extend in this region also. Very scenic in many areas. Quite lonely also.

    At least it's not as boring as some parts of Kansas. Jeez, you drive and drive and drive and drive some more and all you see is grass on both sides of a two lane highway, 5 or 6 feet up from the plains.

    The local entertainment is a series of telephone poles that parallel the highway about a half a mile away the entire stretch. No humans. No buildings. No features. No hills. No nothing but grass.....oh! and the telephone poles!

    And then you keep driving...and driving.....and driving.........and driving. Same damned thing for lawd knows how many hundreds of miles. It's so vast that one can literally see the curvature of the Earth.

    This was back in the late 80's, when I hitchhiked across America.

    Tom, you are too kind! You'd be the first person I'd hit up if I were anywhere near Charlotte however I was asking to be picked to ride Scott's bike. And by golly, if @msg were to let me throw a leg over that Buell, NC is the first place I'm headed B)

    The Buell would need fresh brakes and tires before you got a hold of it. Even if it were just a trip to the grocery store.

    That sounds like quite an adventure, Tom.
    How many people did you murder, anyway? Don't answer that.

    But seriously, adventurous.
