I think we need to put that rabble rouser K.P. on K.P....

I wonder if I should mention that it's a little over 62 days until cannon... Nah. I'd better not...

Thanks, oh fierce Captain M and wonderous Merlin.

Home safe and tired.  Gathering was fun and, um, interesting.   

Twice had what even Captain Michael would call young fellows sit beside me, smoking an interesting non-tobacco.  Several people in vicinity did not recognize the enticing smell as there were comments.  The first fellow glanced sideways at me as if he expected a stern look, holding his cigarette to the other side; the second actually asked "do you mind; I can move if you want?"  Very polite smokers they were. 

I guess I just had the "safe to be around" aura shining last night.

Getting ready to write a note to Customer Service for the new 130 toll way from Seguin to Austin area.  Speed limit 85 – I seriously believe them when they say it was built for that speed, though I usually go 5 to 10 under speed limit, which put me cruising at 75 mph.  Curves are banked so there is almost no feel of centrifugal force at all.  Not sure what they can do about the bicyclists, though; there were three of them in a group today, in the Lockhart area.  Limited access, toll road, cars going 85 mph and people actually think it's okay to be on bikes out there???

Evolutionary natural selection at work.

Let's all go to Faire.

Seriously?!? Cyclists?!?  I guess Arkansas isn't as backward as a lot of people think. We don't allow bicycles or mopeds on our controlled-access roads.

We also call them hood ornaments in Texas Merlin.

61 days 5 hours and some change.

Whooohooo!

LOL! My laugh for the day! Much appreciated, Lady Mac!
