We are fortunate to live in a more rural area for the time being.

Sprayed my watch with DEET.  Apparently it breaks down the plastic when allowed to sit  :facepalm:  :oops:

Indeed.  I pulled a tiny aluminum sliver out of my thumb last week.

Taken through the magnifier of an Explorer Plus.  I am amazed by the incredible complexity of these and other autonomous, self-replicating machines and how they came to exist.

Yessir, from Sporty's Pilot Shop.  It's been a great watch Dan.  I don't believe it's related to the Car Company though.

This is how I knew I was getting old.

First time I had to change a button cell battery in a couple of years. Popped it out of the watch and could barely tell that there was writing on it. Forget reading it.

I use the mag glass a lot more now.

Thanks gents!  It was so hard to get the shot.  It took me about a half dozen tries but I was thrilled when I finally got it to work!

Got this while trying to get another pic.  It's the reflection of my house in the mag glass.
