Vol XVI – #175 – Day After Day… Nice

We are saddened to announce the passing of Dave Sprout. Below on the Biscuit Report is the crew from Deering Tree… Read more »

Vol XVI – #174 – Meggen’s Monday

This morning, we had clear skies overhead, now decorated with a few puffy clouds. Today’s second and third photos are iPhone “shots over the bow,” at sunset last night and late afternoon Saturday. These days have been and continue to be pure delight!
