Thanked: 983Yes, it was just last year that the yo-yo fad came back in for it's usual two week duration for my oldest child. So of course i had to go out and get three yo-yo's. One for each of my children so that there would be no fights (There were anyway, and I should have foreseen it!). Well while I was looking for them, I was shocked first by the price of the cheapest ones. I never remembered them as costing much, and admittedly they still don't...Well, the cheapest ones don't, but they cost more now than they used to. I also had to get myself one and I thought I was going all out paying $15 for this you beaut thing with bearings and a clutch system, but what I've just seen blows that out of the water and kicks it in the guts for good measure! I just took a look at their online store. My lord what you can pay for a kids toy these days!

My dog was bored so we went for a quick drive this evening. Stuffed a cob full of bullseye flake and saw some cows up in the Buttes.

My Mexican buddy Paco was going to release some fish today, so I drove down and took a couple pictures. This is just South of Yuba City Ca on the Feather River. Little 8 inch salmon, spawned in the Hatchery in Oroville, and turned loose to try to make it past the Striped Bass on their way to the San Francisco Bay. If they make it to the Pacific Ocean, get bigger, they can come back up the river to Oroville and start the cycle over again. Good luck little fishies!!

Took these quite a while back, while out walking the dog, some Highland cattle on a local farm a few winters ago, and a few from a holiday in St Ives Cornwall, and one from my local Thomas town park. plus an updated photo of me and my boy Oscar a few weeks ago.

not real pretty but today i went to a "polar bear club" jump in for charity. I'm no longer silly enough to do this the road sign had me concerned a bit. the last photo is a neighbor and her daughter who jumped together andin the middle is one of the kids who will benefit from the event.
in the middle of nowhere (near milford center, ny)
a nice little swimming hole
where it was and a portion of the bystanders
girl jumpers
there were 97 jumpers and between their sponsors, a raffle and an auction just under 155k was raised.
enjoy,
