Today's Final Jeopardy is a quote by Douglas MacArthur and I will never forget that I first learned who he was from an episode of M*A*S*H where Radar pretends to be him.

Boys are fully ass grown up pūtangitangi now. Mum and dad have let other ducks get back in the pond and I saw a fresh crop of fuzzy little yellow ducklings! Not sure what the breed is, Mum is pure white, maybe pekin duck?

Nine almost fully grown up pūtangitangi. I had it reversed in an earlier post, these are all boys. And I saw an eel in the pond, had
no idea that any were living here. That makes it even more impressive that mum and dad successfully raised these fellows. Ka pai.

New set of lawn bowls just dropped. I wanted customised ones but the lead time is minimum two months and I didn't want to wait so long. These adorable seals will have to make do 🦭

Friday morning roll call. Nine pūtangitangi / Paradise shelducklings out of the pond and on a field trip. Can barely call them ducklings anymore, they're getting their adult feathers and are so big. #Paekākā

We've really appreciated the sunny day today before another windy deluge tomorrow.

Don't live your life so that if you act like an entitled asshole who speedily makes an illegal right hand turn and gets stuck on a traffic island and every passerby laughs out loud because you're an asshole.

As a fellow military vet and history buff I too have a WWII related tattoo. This is Fifinella, mascot of the Women Airforce Service Pilots. #WASPs
