Riley is home. She and Hattie got along great, right out of the chute. More photos tomorrow.
Land Rover soft top everything I hoped for
Since switching from the hardtop to the mesh top a couple of weeks ago, I haven’t been able to drive the truck as much as I hoped. Last couple of weeks have been cold and wet. With warmer weather finally here, let’s take a ride. (Just 2 min) I’m loving the open sight lines. And it’s not as loud as the ear plugs suggest.

Our little bit of heaven is going to be on the local garden tour this year and Barb has been working hard to make it look nice. The one-minute video above was created with Apple Photos slideshow tool. For some reason I keep forgetting about this wonderful tool.
O. Kay Henderson: On the campaign trail. Again.
Tonight’s PBS Newshour featured a segment that included an interview with my friend and former co-worker, O. Kay Henderson. I’ve known Kay for 32 years and — coincidently — she’s mentioned in 32 posts on this blog. I think I can safely say there is no one alive today that knows more about politics in Iowa than Ms. Henderson. It’s the only job she’s every had. She started covering politics while she was in college and came to work for Radio Iowa when she graduated and has been doing it ever since. [watch on YouTube]
James Bond Apparently Drives an Old Land Rover Series III in Retirement
“Last week, production on the 25th James Bond movie kicked off, and the first set photos from Jamaica show Daniel Craig’s retired James Bond driving around in an old Land Rover Series III. It’s unclear how much screen time this old Land Rover will get, and whether or not it will be involved in any action scenes. The Series III was very slow, to say the least, with an ancient four-cylinder engine, so Bond wouldn’t stand much of a chance.” (Jalopnik)
