Sorry, been lazy the past couple months... though I doubt anyone is dying to see what I've been up to. Spring took a long time in turning to summer. We had some record rainfall and crazy flooding. Nothing affected us up on the hill obviously, but Lake Champlain flooded (and is still high) and the Winooski River flooded Montpelier. Now, the weather is quite warm, and we've been getting afternoon showers.
Just got back from a short trip to England, before that I was in South Carolina. Work is picking back up again,
and I'll be busier than usual due to some developments at work. Too bad it's never busy in winter... oh well.
Mom and Dad are off sailing up the coast of BC, living it up. I can't wait to see some pictures and hear some stories from that trip. Bet it's been amazing!
Anywho, here's a handful of pictures from the last couple months.

The spotted salamanders made their annual migration to the pond, including this little dude! |
|
The Suby passed the 200,000 mile mark and is still going... barely. |

I've been riding quite a bit, but mostly road/dirt road due to all the rain. |
|
Work has taken me some interesting places lately. This was at a copper mine in VT. The road was MUCH steeper than this in places if you can believe it. Thought this truck wouldn't make it but it did! |
|
Finally got around to tilling the garden (late because of the rain) and found a couple of these hanging around (six-spotted tiger beetle). |
|
The drillers in England have a proper truck to haul their rig. This is a NEW Mercedes Unimog. |
|
The wood frogs have come and gone, but the green frogs are out in force. Also realized there are lots of Grey treefrogs around, but I've never seen one, just heard them. Never seen the green frogs with this much yellow! |

A female green frog. It's amazing how close they'll let you get if you're quiet and move slowly. No zoom on this photo, just got that close! |

unimogs are so awesome. This Swiss couple had one from the UN medical fleet(the desert colored ones)converted into an RV. They had it in Mammoth last summer. It actually got decent mileage.
