Back in Brisbane, still my favorite city in Australia. #brisbane

I have a "new to me" horn. It's a King 2341 with detachable upright bell, BBb flat, 4 valves, circa 1987 or 1988. It came with two hard cases (not shown).

Although I really liked the sound I was able to get out of my Cerveny, it was a 5 valve CC horn and always too much horn for me. "The British sports car of tubas" someone said. The King is an old Ford truck that just keeps going. I am having a lot of fun with it so far.

For the second time we extended our camping season by driving from Wisconsin south to Hot Springs, Arkansas. We spent a wonderful week camping in the Gulpha Gorge campground and hiking around Hot Springs, North, and West Mountains in the Hot Springs National Park. We highly recommend getting to know Hot Springs National Park. #HotSprings #Arkansas #NPS
Piggy and I decided we needed another Oktoberfest at the Gathering Place in Tosa.
Wisconsin summer for dinner.
Summer beer.
It's spring in the northern hemisphere, so happy maibock to you.
They still have (quite good) beer in Brisbane. #brisbane
