You mean Gus Grissom or some other guy?
Keep wondering how long it would take you slow boys to jump on that.
Sometimes I bait the hook and somebody jumps on it before I hit the send button.
This picture was taken at Bunker Hill AFB, IN.
Larry Duval in the flying suit was a B-58 Pilot there at the time.
Astronaut Gus Grissom who was from Indiana flew there in the F-102.
Not long later, Gus was killed.
The base was renamed Grissom AFB in his Honor.
God Bless America, Long Live the Republic!

Gus Grissom, an American hero. They called the Gemini capsules the Gus Mobile, because there wasn't much head room in those.
 
The other day I was visiting the Smokey Bear Memorial Park in Capitan, NM.
That's where he's buried.
I expected the full size statue to say something about Forest Fires.
He surprised me with -
I bet you don't have a shovel like this.
I replied, no, I don't.
You probably have the only shovel with a Red Push Button.

After spending the summer at the maintenance shop at Sand Hollow State Park for its annual
service they delivered my snowcat yesterday and hopefully next week the F-450 to tow it with.

We generally don't start grooming until the first week in January. We are supposed to get
a lot of snow again this year so it will be another good year grooming.

We had such little snowfall in the winter of 2015/16 the cat never even got started. :(

Good to be 03Hemi today. I ordered 5 of these babies in the summer for my Jeep and about to order the tires for them, my Christmas present to myself.

Wife's cell phone pic from last night.
Christmas lights and a cloudy moon.

This pic (very nice) reminds me of one I took some time ago of raindrops beading up on the glass sun roof of my car after a rainstorm. Until they know what they are looking at, opinions vary widely on what the subject really is!
