Took a walk (about a mile total out and back) through a lovely nature preserve along the Gardon gorge. Most noteworthy is it took us under the largest Roman aqueduct. Now a. Now there's something you don't see every day! Now nearly 2000 years old.

Very nice photo omo. I love seeing ancient architecture.
I'll toss in a photo of my wife in Evora, Portugal with the Aqueduct behind her. We were dining at a roof-top restaurant, so you are not seeing the whole thing.

It seems like just other day I was driving home in the snow from Charlotte to my Dad's house after watching Duke play Davidson. He was more of an unknown then (but he could…

And as a bonus while reading the article I accidentally clicked on a short video (on the left side of the article) which discusses the rescue of a dog that fell 30 feet into a lava crack. The rescuer read about the dog on social media nd drove 2 hours to…
I have often wondered why when there is some natural disaster they spend millions od dollars to airlift or truck in tons and tons of bottled water when they could for a fraction of the cost hand out water filters.
Our power went out this evening. The utility company's web site days it's a small local outage that should be fixed by midnight. But my wife asks "How will I boil water to make tea tonight?" I ask "Seriously? You don't recall I have spent the last 10 years making homemade alcohol stoves?"

In typical cafe fashion I planned this trip while driving 80 mph east on I-40 heading back from the Smokies. I stopped at a McDonald's to borrow some free Wifi to get a picture of a the trails and away I went. Going up Wolf Pit road in my 2002 Honda Accord was risky with the amount of ice and snow on the road. The final hill going down to the…
On February 25th and 26th I did a nice loop in the Smokies from Big Creek Ranger Station parking lot to Deep Gap along the AT south of Mt. Cammerer fire tower. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow while going up. I stealth camped due to the amount of snow coming in and the next day went down the Big Creek trail. Overnight there was another 6 to 8 inches of snow and freezing fog.
