365/2021 - Expanding Horizons - Day 130 May 10 - Grumpy Blue came for a ride with us on the beach today, he kinda fits my mood today!
April 18, 2012 marked the 70th Anniversary of the Doolittle Raid...the "30 Seconds Over Tokyo" raid led by Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle when 16 B-25 medium bombers launched from the carrier USS Hornet and attacked targets in Japan.
In a tribute to the five surviving Doolittle Raiders...and to the memory of the other 75...20 B-25's gathered at Grimes Field in Urbana, OH. On the morning of April 17, 2012; the bombers launched from Grimes in 90 second intervals for the short trip down to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the National Museum of the Air Force.
Activities continued for the remainder of the week...including a Memorial Flight featuring a mass formation of the B-25's.
Historic Flight's "Grumpy"...one of the long-distance travelers, having flown in from Washington...launches from Grimes Field.
Thanks to Ron Kaplan with the Gathering of B-25’s for the Media access that made this photo location possible!
From the prince of grumpy faces.
This is an entry for the DSLR Skills Course from Practical Photography Assignment 1: Taken in JPG with the camera set to B&W; no post processing at all.
Nice as are the Irish folk we meet, Ireland must have its share of
grumpy old men and sure now we came across one yesterday at a fishing
port - un-named to protect the guilty! (The photo was taken at Kilmore
Quay - a lovely fishing and leisure harbour). As instructed in the
almanac, we tried
calling the harbour before arrival on VHF 16 and 14 without response, so
continued on in. While tying up alongside a huge laid-up deep sea
trawler the Harbourmaster appeared waving his rule book and calling over
about £500 a day penalties for unauthorised use of his harbour. "Fine"
(sorry, no pun intended) says the Skipper "I'll stay two days - will a
cheque for a grand be OK?". But humour was wasted. Deflated on hearing
that we had called as we should, he retaliated by saying we could not
go ashore because 1) there was no gangway off the trawler and 2) if a
fishing boat wanted our berth he would cast off our lines and set us
adrift. However the upside was that we then couldn't get to his office
to offer payment of harbour dues, and left with a clear conscience this
morning.
Today we had a sparkling sail with a following F5 easterly, and are now
in Youghal (pronounced 'yawl') of carpet fame. We are at anchor for the
first time this trip, but will not be going ashore in the dinghy, as
there is now a steady F6 blowing across the open anchorage. But the sun
shines and all is well!
I feel like I've turned into the grumpy cat lady there's that many cats lately - again you can get it at etsy - pocketcarnival.etsy.com
Simon the Pug, not entirely pleased with me sticking a lens in his face.
Messing about with a bit of high key style processing.

We have ourselves a bag of angry squirrels. That’s what my Cousin Kurt says from a safe distance. My feelings and week were summed up in that simple line. It was a bag of angry squirrels. One of my relatives, the one we weren’t looking at, needed help. A ruckus ensued until a plan was put in place and a firmer one is still in the works. My own resolution of a calmer more peaceful existence went to hell in a hand basket - as the saying goes. Thank heaven for lattes from Café Grumpy to bolster the spirits.
Have a wonderful Monday!
While standing on a bridge attempting to photograph some birds, this guy approached on his bicycle. The grumpy look on his face suggested he wasn't thrilled to see a 'farang' in his territory.

O is a child of extremes. Her moods can change with a gust of wind.
This is the O we see when she's cross. Hands on hips, frown on face and lots of shouting.
Rumbles had his 6 month birthday only a few days ago. He destroyed our bin, a tree, some of our grass, dug a hole, run around like an idiot for a while, got humped by a staffy on our walk and then slept for 16 hours.... all in all I think he had a blast.
Christi Friesen-Inspired Baby Turtle. I think this guy's a little bit of a grump. Or at least I made grumpy faces at him while I carved his mouth!
This view shows you clearly the main problem with my baby turtle -- there's not actually room for the rest of his little turtle body in the egg that he's supposed to be emerging from. Oops.
Wonder if that's why he's so grumpy? :-)
