Four Russian Sukhoi Su-24s (Fencer) during 2019 Day of the Russian Navy display (St. Petersburg, Russia)

Russia has lost at least ten of these during their invasion of Ukraine. Do these four even exist anymore?

Oddly beautiful terrain

Theodore Roosevelt National Park North Unit, North Dakota (August 2022)

This was the view from either the River Bend Overlook or the Oxbow Overlook. I did them both so I don’t remember.

Avista Stadium – home of the Spokane Indians (September 2022)

I began the day that ended in this photo in Havre, Montana. I visited my mother’s childhood home in tiny Simms, Montana along the way. Somehow, days like that when I spend time in several states give me a sense of accomplishment. I can also remember such days well, even after a long period of time has elapsed. On the other hand, days which are rather routine in which I really do get stuff done are lost in my memory rather quickly.
