@Katrina71 if you want Xenia in the MIracle, I highly recommend the Giant Bali Pom Pom Xenia. I kept these in my 75 and they are much easier to control since they grow from a single stalk and have a big head full of awesome pulsing polyps.

@Dolelo96 what's happening with the escape?

They removed the battery and couldn’t find anything wrong with it, so they brought it to the company the buy from. He tested it and said it had a ”bad cell”. It was under warranty, so they replaced it at no charge. I’m still going to check under the hood every couple months to make sure there isn’t any new corrosion ;Shifty

They stopped at boca airport and took off at 1 and were at my house less then a minute later. I’m a good 15 miles from boca airport. Man do I wish they just ripped those full afterburners and took off

Thanks, it is a fluval evo 13.5 with stock rubbish light either blues or all on, my camera doesn't do blues only so that is everyday lighting. :)
Thanks for the info! I recently broke out the Cannon xsi (450d) dslr and am struggling to learn photography. I got a book and R2R so I am hopeful.

Try and find a base line setting, led and blues really mess with most cameras, camera or phone cams!

Many years ago (1993 to be exact) , I was helping my friend look for his golf ball between the tree line and the OB. I was looking down to see if it rolled up where the grass met the tree trunks, when my head bumped right into a low hanging hornets nest. My friend was on the fairway as he looked up when he heard my screaming from behind the trees.
He described the scene of me breaking through the tree line and racing towards a pond like a cartoon with a large black cloud chasing above my head. - which of course caused him to double over in laughter.

They gave up the chase just before I needed to dive in the pond (which I assume would have literally killed my partner in laughter). I picked off about a dozen 2 inch black hornets stinging me with my gloved hand from my lips, ears, chest and ankles.

I had the final laugh in one of life's great ironic turn of events. After the morning round, we headed over the the US Open at Baltusrol, and while walking along a fence line, he stepped on a yellow jacket hive.


I don't like hornets

My dad was stationed at March AFB in Riverside, CA in the late 60s early 70s. The flight line was not far from our house. It was a B-52 base and they worked on them constantly. They would fire the jet engines up whenever they needed to, whether it was mid-day or middle of the night. Extremely loud. I remember trying to watch shows on TV and having to turn the volume all the way up and putting my ear next to the speaker and still could not hear what was being said. It was cool for the first couple of weeks. :)

We're less than 20 miles, in a straight line, from NAS Pensacola, their home base. Love seeing them 3 days a week doing their show practices, then on Sunday afternoons they do a flyby along the coast on their way back to NASP. Miss the practices now due to working in Mobile, but never miss the flyby...will try to get video next time they come by.
