Pretty nice chunk of land you've got. I always enjoy seeing your "yard". What feeds the water I see down yonder? Is it a small lake? We call those "tanks" here in TX. Is it a river? A creek? A pond? What the heck is that back there?
That's our neighbors'
Mine's nice, but not that nice. 
That's a pond; stream-fed. Quite a nice little pond it is, too.
I always tell folks we have the nicest view we could afford. We couldn't afford the view I posted above.
some green-winged teal on the neighbors' pond from April 2022.
There's actually another, much smaller pond/marsh nearby. Great place to see migrating (and nesting) birds in the springtime. Here're some wood ducks in the smaller pond, also from '22.
We bumped into another neighbor as we were walking down the hill this evening. We remarked about the gorgeous evening and I said, "Yeah -- it's too bad it's not prettier around here, isn't it?"

Of course they're debating it at ASR (where I saw this), but my gut feeling is that there's a causal relationship in these data.

I zoomed 400% and still can't make out what it is. Not enough detail and a bit out of focus.

Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Colonel! Can you possibly imagine what is going to happen to you, your frame, outlook, way of life, and everything, when they learn that you have obstructed a telephone call to the President of the United States? Can you imagine? Shoot it off! Shoot! With a gun! That's what the bullets are for, you twit!
Colonel "Bat" Guano: Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: What?
Colonel "Bat" Guano: You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.

Speaking of Ford...
Well -- I had no idea that the genesis of the pickup "truck" was so nuanced!
I guess I should be more tolerant of the Ford Maverick, Hyundai Santa Fe, Honda Ridgeline, etc.

1941 Ford half-ton pickup
1941 Ford one-ton express body
I am still gonna be less tolerant of monster pickups with full four-door cabs and "afterthought"-sized beds, though.
I am old, so I've earned my curmudgeon-hood.

ok, one more, then I gotta get to work...

Maverick...I love mine. I didn't realize one needs to be "tolerant" to a vehicle that someone else owns and drives. Falls into the nunya category.

NUNYA?? We used to say that back when I was in the AF.....hadn't heard that in forever. We'd say, "Nunya faceballs business"....only we didn't say faceballs

Vintage Advertisement 1072 - Smirnoff - 1973 by Johnny El-Rady, on Flickr
Apparently this wasn't one of the more successful Smirnoff ads of 1973.
