There is no safe harbor for Red Moons cells, so the less-than-popular freedom fighters take their supplies with them. Connections within the New Republic found opportunities for the Red Moons to liberate a new Defender-class Cruiser, which was then retrofitted and christened "The Boneyard" for its bounty of looted, plundered, and scavenged cargo.

Perhaps, perhaps not.
Either way, I don't mind.
I like to read Webster's Dictionary in the middle of the woods in the winter time. So what.

So, I had ten minutes to dash through the forest, set-up, strip down, shoot, pack-up and get back before having to leave for an appointment.
Here is the result.
I'm okay with it.

p.s. I think my day-numbers are off/back by one. Agh.

English: 1463, from break (v.) + fast (n.). Cf. Fr. déjeuner "to breakfast," from L. dis-jejunare "to break the fast." The verb is from 1679. The English word derives from the concept that sleep prevents eating, thus an involuntary fast occurs during sleep; this fast is broken by the first meal - called breakfast.

During exploration of Dictionary Hill, I encountered a fast manouverable radio-controled glider being flown in the updrafts on the west side. I was shooting video of the glider when the crow appeared. The glider was much faster than the crow, especially in the wind at the time, and soon they were far apart.

Finally some of the new stamps from 2011 are available on-line in France. I have waited a long time. I paired the Dictionary greetings 'friend' stamp with the floating garden stamp, using the watercolor technique. Stamped four times to create the background. I actually prefer to stamp four times than once with the big Friends definition cling! I feel I can get a sharper image. Used four different distress colors direct to the FG stamp, sprayed with water and stamped. I have no white flowers, so used an apricot color one with an antique button.

The Century Plant or Maguey (Agave americana) is an agave originally from Mexico but cultivated worldwide.
It has a spreading rosette (about 4 m wide) of gray-green leaves up to 2 meters (6 ft.) long, each with a spiny margin and a heavy spike at the tip. Its common name derives from its habit of only occasionally flowering, but when it does, the spike with a cyme of big yellow flowers, may reach up to 8 meters (25 ft.) in height. The plant dies after flowering, but produces suckers or adventitious shoots from the base, which continue its growth. The average life-span is around 25 years.
Cultivated varieties include the 'Marginata' with yellow stripes along the margins of each leaf, 'Medio-picta' with a central white band, 'Striata' with multiple yellow to white stripes along the leaves, and 'Variegata' with white edges on the leaves.[1]
It is also known as the American aloe, although it is in a different family from the true aloes.
If the flower stem is cut without flowering, a sweet liquid called agua miel ("honey water") gathers in the heart of the plant. This may be fermented to produce the drink called pulque, which may then be distilled to produce mezcal. The leaves also yield fibers, known as pita, which are suitable for making rope, matting, coarse cloth and are used for embroidery of leather in a technique known as piteado. Both pulque and maguey fibre were important to the economy of pre-Columbian Mexico. Production continues today to a much lesser extent. Agave syrup (also called agave nectar) has recently been marketed as a healthful natural sugar substitute.
Tequila is made from a different species, Agave tequilana (also called Blue Agave or Tequila Agave).
