    Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.

    You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!

        I sent them a part for Nicki's bike. I think James may be there but Nicki says she has to work.

          If there are more than three bolts holding it on there, it is most likely a very important part!

              I've moved up in the world... Got a GoPro that mounts to my helmet. Now I get to ride around looking like a frikkin Teletubby and we can watch me crash in HD next time! lol. BUT... it still doesn't measure up to my little trusty point and shoot for still pics, so I still ride around one handed with that.

                Seems I remember somthin' awhile back you sayin' you had a GoPro mount, but, alas, Im guilty of the point and shoot with my trusty little Nikon. Actually amazing what you get and not thinking so at the time of the click!

                    Yeah, that's what's great about digital. You may only get one cool shot out of 50 while riding along, but who cares. Delete the rest and go on. Most cameras today will hold THOUSANDS of shots with a decent memory card.

                    I remember taking pics with film, and you had to be really judicial as to what you shot... then play the waiting game to see if the shot worked out or not.. Ugh.

                          Nice of you to help them farmers out by causing the rain! We have a front moving through here right now but it looks to be out of the way by Saturday.
                          BTW, have heard from Strabo and Tulip, they will be here.

                                Leaving this afternoon, 900 miles, if no rain, should arrive Friday mid afternoon. If rain will take it easy and arrive later.
