More backyard biking.

This is quite a different approach than what Meade did in our backyard — Meade prioritized the visual beauty of the plantings — but the yard is small like ours:



Now, if you have a bigger backyard...

Was that a black mamba on the trail? Cool video. Wouldn't that be great?

Mockturtle, If it is a black mamba, you would be lucky to not die before you could get medical care. I like my bicycling, but not that much.

Google says- Tasmania has three species of land snake:
Tiger snake, Notechis scutatus.
Lowland copperhead, Austrelaps superbus.
White-lipped snake, Drysdalia coronoides.

All poisonous, but white-lipped not fatal to humans. It is illegal to harm snakes in Tasmania or Australia.

That second photo looks like the preserved trenches at Ypres from World War I

I hope Meade saw this extension to the Cap City Trail-

I noticed the link when reading the Madison do-gooders post.

Danno, I could never forget this scene from Kill Bill II: Link

Mockturtle, thanks for sharing the link, which I watched. I quit going to/watching Hollywood movies a long time ago. Now I don't go see them because I hate their politics and in your face sharing of their view of the world. Come to think of it, I think my last movie in a theater was one of the Back to the Future series. (Mid 80s??)

Gotcha beat, Danno. Last movie I saw in a theater was Ghandi with my husband in downtown Seattle in 1982.

One of the many things I liked about Kill Bill 1 & 2 was the lack of any political agenda. It's a fully entertaining series beginning to end. Rent it or buy it. It's both ridiculously violent and hilariously funny, in the way only Tarantino can be. The more I watch it, the more clever details I see.

Gandhi, that is.
