Were Ford bailed out?  There is no water in the streams here (if that makes sense).

I don't know about the byways but the highways are closed.

Remember Mad Magazine's The Flying Nut?

No more flying.

But what happens if I get to a mountain and need to get to the other side.  If i can't fly over it, what can I do?

If only this were Austria, and i were Peggy Wood.

No, Ford isn't making any cents these days.

I think you can make out Bunyip State Forest here.

I can see everything better on the 1st map, between the two I think I have an idea of where you are.

... the lack of interest in things like sterling silver flatware, porcelain china, and cut crystal drinkware.  Not to mention fine table linens.

There would be more of an interest in sterling silver flatware and fine table linens if we had a return to Indentured Servants for maintenance.

Jane! I finally got a photo of Buckley! He has one blue eye, too..the right one. I was lucky to get this because he's such a lover it's hard to get him to hold still and pose!

The map on the previous page is now slightly larger if that helps.

I'm back :)

The photo is darling.  Thank you.  I just wish his blue eye wasn't in the shadows.  How light is it? I noticed Buckley has a good amount of white on his face which is more common with a blue eyed Berner.  Often they have more white than he does.  I can't tell but his markings look symmetrical or is there more white on the right side of his face?  Would you even notice these things? ;)
