Worked on the water for a few hours yesterday. It was really cloudy. Spoiler Until it wasn't... By far the worst farmer's tan I've ever had.
Alright, so me being the dumbarse I am hasn't quite got the logistics of uploading a file onto here.. And can't delete this supremely useless post. So, just fuck.
My mom got me a really cute tank top perfect for my line of work (Urology), so I wanted to take a pic of me wearing it and post it on her facebook page. Well, something about the self portraits I kept taking were just .... off. The angle, the top, my shape, etc kept giving me really.....um....inappropriate images to post on mom's page where all of her church going friends could see, but I it would be a pic that TiB would enjoy. So what the hell, I'm game. And, yes, I am endowed in the boobage area, but not nearly so much as this pic would suggest. I think this will just go into her in box.
Attached is a picture of a Kermode bear. It is a sub species of the black bear, it is completely white. There are only about 500 or so of these bears alive. About 100 of them are on princess royal island. And about 400 of them on are northwestern mainland BC, from the coast in about 400km, and from the Alaskan panhandle south 200km or so. There are lots of fishermen the go around princess royal island there entire life and don't see one. And people that travel the highway and never see one. Yet here me and me wife traveling on the May long weekend, see one right on the side of the road.
So I learned two valuable lessons at Gilley's in Vegas this week: Lesson 1 is that riding a mechanical bull is AWESOME: Lesson 2 is that shit will leave a mark (this is my inner thigh the next morning, two days later it is about 4 different shades of purple):
Sunsets on the ocean are badass, a camera doesn't capture all the colors, this was last week and the way back to the mothership after a day of fishing.
Aerial Refueling off a C-130. Large, wide picture. Explanation: I'm in my Helo, we have a refueling probe that extends off the right side of the fuselage. The C-130 flies slow and dirty (flaps down to increase lift so she doesn't stall and fall out of the sky. She extends out a long refueling drogue (the little white basket thing) and we plug our probe into the drogue to receive fuel. I put my probe into the hole a lot today.
Not my pictures, but I didn't know where else to put this. Some of you may have heard of the flooding in northern Minnesota, particularly around Duluth. This is what Gooseberry Falls normally looks like. This is what it looks like now. http://minnesota.publicradio.org/di...eberry-river-in-full-roar-after-record-storm/
My aunt is a nun in her mid 70s. My sister lives down the street from her and sees her all the time. Anyway, Aunt T, we'll call her, is bad ass. My sister took a picture of her working in her yard with a chainsaw. When Aunt T saw the picture, she said, "take another one with me working on the big pile, this little pile im working on is embarrassing!"
Took a little trip to the beach and had some fun on the bikes last weekend. I'm so glad I finally got it back together after dropping it. Spoilered for size. Spoiler Spoiler
I got bored with the camera when me and the wife when to a cabin with her parents on may long weekend. So i started to take pictures of the fire. Some of them turned out really nice, thou when i shrink them to post here they dont look as good. I found it really neat when i was what you could capture when you are playing with a shutter speed of 1/3200 or 1/4000. Couple of baby dear hanging out on the train tracks.
A couple from Saturday. Nothing fancy at all...just friends and booze and moonshine and baseball. There's an arm bomb here: I'm hugging my brother (who performed the ceremony) and my new husband is scoping my ass.
