These pics are not horrible, but some people are more sensitive to such things. Hence the spoiler where you can choose to see them or just keep on strolling. Apparently an airplane was preparing to take off when a deer ran into the propeller causing a few thousand dollars in damage and (no surprises) killing the deer instantly.

Standing on the flight deck one morning a guy walked past me and headed straight for the spinning prop. I stopped him and pointed out the prop. He gave me a thumbs up and turned and started to walk into it again. That time I stopped him, yanked his hearing protection and screamed at him. He turned ghost white when he realized what had almost happened. His boss saw what happened and that guy went mess cooking for the rest of the cruise.

I agree.
A new prop for that plane will be horribly expensive.gaah
 
Since their other jellies and jams were so good... I was back at the little market today and got scuppernong and muscadine jelly. I haven't had either since I was a kid. I know they'll be yummy.

I had never heard of scuppernong before.

The scuppernong is a large variety of muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia), a species of grape native to the Southern United States. It is usually a greenish or bronze color and is similar in appearance and texture to a white grape, but rounder and larger and first known as the 'big white grape'.

We will get more snow than they will of the course of the winter, and we love it. We are always sad when it melts away. :(

I'll send you mine. You might have to toss it in the freezer for a bit when it gets there though.
 
THIS is what winter should look like! And it usually does around here.

Yikes! That looks like 7+ feet of snow in the yard. But on the roof, only about 4 inches. The snowplows pile it up at the edge of your property here, but not in your yard. Is that huge pile possibly a wind drift?

Every year by the end of winter, between the snow plow and the snow blower, we can rarely see the road from our house. Some people have it scooped up and trucked out into the country.
