Do you like old buildings? This abandoned ranch house sits right next to I-84 a few miles south of Baker City, OR.

I volunteer for a local SAR team. In January of 2013 we did 3 searches for missing persons in 3 weeks. By the end of the 3rd my left knee was killing me. Waited around a couple of months and it got no better. I had a large portion of the meniscus taken out in April. At 55 I was concerned my hiking might be over, but I had a good surgeon, good therapist and I responded well. My wife and did an 11 mile round trip up Mount LeConte in SMNP 10 weeks after surgery just to prove to myself I could do it.

Most people don't really want the truth.

They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Cool! I've only passed it twice. Great landscape, it caught my eye both times. I suppose because it's the only thing out there!

Beautiful house Brad, I've heard of it but not seen it. You did a good job!

Hope you get well soon. I'm a little worried about my shoulders/collar bones. I've badly broken and dislocated both of my collar bones (racing motocross), the right one just a couple years ago and my shoulders are definitely not the same now. Over time I could have issues. You should be ready to go for Fall hunting in the Rockies!

Great thread by the way! I'll try to add to it once I get back to that side of the globe.

Thanks. I'm doing amazingly well. My mobility is improving by the hour almost. Started PT yesterday & he got me pretty sore but prognosis is fully recovered mobility. Just need to push without pushing too far and getting inflammation.

When I was in the basic training in '70, the term PT wasn't physical therapy. It was physical training. We learned to hate the term. As we crashed at the end of an arduous workout, we were "encouraged" to all yell 'more PT drill sergeant'!! If we didn't yell enthusiastically enough, we got the more PT we'd asked for but didn't want. It was a no-win deal.

Here's a couple totally unrelated to anything on here, a bit out of this world you could say. The first one is about 2.5 million light years away. The second is about 1300 light years away. I shot both of these in 2007. Haven't done much astrophotography in a while. I need to drag the stuff out and do some more.

Back down to Earth

A camp last spring in Pisgah NF

[Linked Image]


A cold late winter hike to a place near my home. The "Blue Ridge Escarpment" drops off here providing view across the foothills and Piedmont. You can see around 70 mile here I'd guess. It was spitting some snow that day and the wind was cold. I found some fatwood and collected it to put in my fire kit.
