TPBM shows happiness

Why wait? Just wrap him in bubble wrap, or, better yet, just bungee cord him to the front fender. What a conversation piece that would be!

Yeah, somehow I don't think the conversation will go in my favor...

You'd commute up here just to hike with Terri? Wow, that's dedication.

Well... Just on my days off, anyway. That's a bit too far for me to drive for a morning hike after work.

I've been toying with the idea of picking up a bicycle again to get some excercise. I really liked riding years ago, but where we live now, there's not a lot of good biking areas.

There aren't any good biking areas here, either. The speed limits on the roads around here run from 50 to 65mph, and I sure wouldn't feel safe with freeway speed traffic whipping by me as I pedal along on the side of the road.

I have plenty of 5,000' and taller mountains as close as six miles from where I live, though. I think hiking is the best choice for exercise here...

I can't download my shots onto the laptop, so I'm holding the Epson P4000 up to the screen so you guys can see some of the shots. I'll start with this one from last night.

Oooh. Purdy! It looks like you might have a little sensor snot, though.

Is that on another thread?

This is for Lisa

yeah, I would love to 1. be in a physical condition to do hikes like that and 2. be there to hike those mountains. Although, we have lots of nice hiking areas here, too. Maybe someday....

Actually, I do. I'll have to clean the ol' sensor when I get home.

a little wet fun

No, I won't be able to post anything until after we get home. I was just kidding.

GMAE all.

I'm a little irritable today. I'm getting braces put on on Tuesday. So yesterday I had to go to the ortho to get spacers put between my molars. UGGGGGH!! They are SO annoying and now my teeth ache. I can't eat anything hard because it hurts like hell. Just in time to make my weekend FUN and ENJOYABLE!

Mmm, that's a part of my life that is long in the past [thankfully]

I didn't need spacers, but I can tell you the fun begins when they adjust things. Its only your molars, now ... just wait. The good news is it only lasts for a few days, then things calm down again.

Yeah, was on TPBM. The straight vertical drop caught my eye. I nearly lost my lunch just looking at the drop!

Puddle ... What tablet do you own now? I'm thinking about upgrading my 4x5 to a bigger tablet.

Yeah I can get braces for $400 with my city insurance so I'm taking advantage of it. My teeth are already pretty jacked up but it will stop further damage. Parents didn't have money for braces when we were young. lol

Yeah my wife told me I'm going to be miserable on Tuesday. LOL I'm such a big baby.

Speaking of ....

I finally broke down and rocket-blew my 40D. Self cleaning my @$$.

Oh, My dad wants my old RebelXT, so he'll be getting that, soon.
