@Sunfire96 good for you. Spring is just starting to get going. We took a nice walk through Alton Baker Park today - very nice.

Them two either side of the dead tree are what I call Ghost Gums their trunk shines white my the moonlight at night revealing ghostly ghastly drop bear shapes! That tree has stripped it's flakey bark back.
A possum lives in that dead tree and I kid you not crawls down head first I've even witnessed it do this with a baby on its back! I can tell when she's comming down you can hear her claws gripping the tree as she heads down.
Luckily she hasn't taken too much of a liking to my vege garden but I'm suspicious of passionfruit disappearance hmmm

I flew home last year from Aus a day or two before they locked down travel. It's a beautiful country. I was able to fly to Brisbane for the weekend and go to the Australia Zoo, which was entirely worth it. I only panicked driving on the wrong side of the road a few times.
That's near where I live
just up the road a bit more.

Cool, assuming I ever get back over there for work I'll have to do more organizing and darken your doorstep. It was beautiful country.
My random picture for today is my buddy running his "modified" propane van out of fuel on the Yellowhead highway this morning. I went out and got him towed to a fuel station safely, then we worked on it some today. It's quite the beast.

Sure is! The old rust bucket

Finally had a chance to go up to my work and visit the animals that I care for (at least, I did until I injured my back last winter). It will be a while before I'm able to work as a keeper due to physical limitations, but I might be able to return as a Safari Guide, which is also something that I enjoy doing. Here's some pictures of my kids and the safari truck that I'll be driving. They are converted M83 Power Wagons (military versions of Dodge), so don't call it a Jeep some of our trucks are over 50 years old
Here's our zebra herd, a common eland bull (he probably weighs over 2000 lbs but can jump a 6ft fence from a standstill), and one of our female waterbucks. @Zambezi Special anything look familiar??

Ghaaa! That would scare the hell out of me.
Mini drop bear!

Hillbilly living at its best, nothing like a home like that with a john deere mower, and believe it or not that's 30 minutes away from my house

Yep, looks familiar
Except for vegetation.
I'm currently seeing more hippo and crocs though.
And sometimes these guys:
