This morning I walked in a different direction at 6:00. It is pitch dark at that time. :D

I posted this in 2016 so it's old, but true :) My Mother n law died yesterday in a nursing home. She was 90 years old and she lived a good long life. Her last few weeks were, unfortunately wracked with pain and suffering so now it is a blessing and she is at rest. Judy was a big Frank Sinatra...

I love these waspfish :)

There is something in my water but it doesn't seem to affect any of the livestock. I don't know why but it is very interesting and not the boring skimate this skimmer normally makes. :) It's hard to automatically send it to the drain because it stays as foam forever. I am sure whatever it is...

It's Oyster festival week this week here on Long Island. My favorite time of the year.

My skimmer for some reason can't contain itself. I am not sure why but this has been happening for 2 weeks.

On Friday we went to a Sweet 16 party for my wife's cousins niece. It was in a beautiful and old place called Gatsby's on Jones Beach right on the water. The place was originally opened in 1931 so it is all Art Deco and used to be for the rich and famous. (Like Humble) Gatsby on the Ocean...

This morning about 6:00 I went for my normal walk. It was still dark. A small white van pulled next to me and opened his window. I didn't see a gun or political poster so I assumed it was safe to go up to this vehicle. There was a guy inside, not dirtbag looking and he looked at me and said...

This Friday is our 50th wedding anniversary. A few months ago we took the family to Bermuda on a cruise and I thought on the actual day we would have a peaceful day. Nope. We have to go to a Sweet 16 party on Jones Beach here on Long Island which is probably one of the biggest beaches in the...

These guys will spawn next.

This is her Main Squeeze. Handsome devil isn't he?

My Bleeny is spawning

Pretty good for an old guy. :biggrin: Shoulder is coming along and pretty soon I will get back to bungee jumping and hang gliding. :) I go back to the guy in a month and he will tell me if I need PT or not. I am going to tell him I don't need it because thats for Sissies and I really...

My "little" baby Grand Daughter, Greta is growing up to fast. :biggrin:

I have no Idea. Could be a whale shark or barracuda. :rolleyes:

I haven't seen this fish since I put it in my tank April 8th. I just found him today happy and healthy in the back of the tank behind the UG filter tubes. I guess he lives there and I will never see him out in the open. I have a few fish like that.

I know. As a matter of fact, I strongly told my surgeon I only wanted an American joint. And if it is not, don't tell me because I will never like that shoulder and won't look at it. :confused:

I think I am using up all the titanium in the hospitals here. :oops: I try not to use that arm, because I am not supposed to. But my wife isn't doing to well and things need to be done so I do what I can.

I have been a little busy changing 50 gallons of water. I collected it and filtered it and now I am heating it. I fill 5 gallon thin plastic jugs with hot water and float them in my vats. In 30 minutes they are all heated. I test the salinity and change it. :) All this using only one hand...

Normally I throw a bilge pump in the sea. But it's much faster like this. Also when I do that I get way more seaweed and sand because the pump sits on the bottom. I still get a lot of seaweed as you can see on the beach, but it is easy to filter it out. It is dirty and brown no matter how I...
