Hey Bud, that's a different 'beauty' to the previous beauty. Aren't you supposed to be working.

I'm staying out near Vegas for a couple of weeks. That's Turtlehead Peak in Red Rock Canyon, NV. I'm much more interested in the hills than the city - stunning countryside.

Mog, is that a sperm whale beached on the N Yorks coast? They are incredibly rare in the North Sea.

not bad as bodyguards go, although if there's guns and bullets i'd need a bigger one to hide behind..

I figured you were out there, to be honest - whatever it is you are doing, stay safe eh?

More pics from another Nevadan adventure, this time up to Cathedral Rock at Mt. Charleston.

Moggy, your stranded sperm whale made it onto the TV on Springwatch (ep. 3 on iPlayer) with a discussion on why 2 sperm wales - Redcar and one in Kent - became stranded. Seems that the North Sea is too shallow for them to feed and they starve and become dehydrated and decline rapidly. There you go.

My body guards looked some what different. Bigger and hairier. But a long time ago...Glad to hear they're looking after you Bud.
