My oldest son's collection of cars

Oldtime patented shock absorber

Spurs that my son made for Brady. The rowels are cut from the spline of a PTO shaft.

My two favorite ladies headed off to tour Scotland.

Fiends that used to ranch in this area. They now live in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

The grass isn't very tall yet.

Yearling heifers on pasture

Heifers on a hill

I feel like the pie-eyed piper.

A bird and a black babe

Prairie grass and sky

Others have shot at this sign. I figured I had just as well take a shot also. :wink:

A pickup and a pond

Clouds in the evening sky

Calves on the feed row. It was terribly windy today in this neck of the woods.

Yes, that is the plan. Peach and I are celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary this summer, so she and Sunflower are traveling to Scotland in honor of the event. :wink:

A fine choice of holiday destination by your lady folks if you don't mind me saying so If they get lost or need directions to the best drinking spots :shock: - I mean tourist attractions :lol: :lol: PM me and i'll send suggestions. PS hope they took their rain gear it was severely wet and miserable there last week although May is actually often the driest month of the year. Hope they have a good trip.

Very good idea to get away. I hope there is another camera in your household. I like the virtual tours.

I've seen a camera in Sunflower's hand in some of the pictures and I bet Peach can use one too. I wish them a very enjoyable trip and hope they take lots of pictures for us photo junkies! :wink: :wink:
