These shots are from the Cable Air Show I went to back in January. I've been saving them for the 4th of July. Do you know how hard that was? ;)

And yes, I was bad. Again. I saw this little sailor collar and I bought it for Spike for the 4th of July. So he could show his patriotic side. Poor kid. How he suffers for my art!

Happy 4th to all my friends in the USA. And I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Yes - these would have been hard to keep Lisa - fantastic action and colours. And Spike looks as regal as ever - but what does he have around his neck? ????? · 2008-07-04: 04:06

Aah - just noticed it was a sailor collar - of course! ????? · 2008-07-04: 04:07
