Morning.

I remember when the night before Thanksgiving was full of bar hopping with old friends who were back in town. Now it consists of prepping food for tomorrow and catching up on some sleep. Getting older and having responsibilities is way overrated.

I enjoy skiing on occasion but any activity that holds the potential for standing in a line is not for me.
I've taken five ski trips out west between Tahoe, Utah, and Colorado. The almost complete lack of any lift lines still astounds me. Ski down, get on chair, ski down, get on chair. Even the longest lines (experienced at Keystone) only take a few minutes to get through.

That is why I said "potential".

In hell. Welcome!
Morning! I have not graduated to solar flares yet, just modest solar winds. Last night, riding was great. Tonight, I might break out the fat clunker and ride around the hood, just for the shitts.

goint to the market for some last minute fresh veggies then its toss the doggies into the camper and its off to Yosemite for five days. It feels so liberating to be free of going to turkey day with the wifes family for the first time in 10 years

Listen now, I am all in favor of supporting the race photographers and understand and appreciate the time and effort that goes into taking and processing the photos. But $40 for a single marathon image download? FORTY DOLLARS?? The hell with that. They are out of their god damn minds. I've purchased a bunch of pics in the past. Normally it's $15-$25 for a single download, and I've paid as much as $70 for an entire collection. These guys just priced themselves out of getting $50 from me for a few pics.

But what other choices do you have to get a picture of YOURSELF? Not to mention the hot marathon action, you might be doing something really cool like having one foot in front of the other.

I think I'll just start bringing splat with me to these things. BTW, one of the best race pics I have is one splat took when I ran a 10K in Boston. And he didn't charge me!

Haha Jeebus is getting you all back for making fun of Buffalo. I took the Bobcat there and unburied my Aunt and her neighbor. I had to get out of there as all the neighbors wanted to be dugout also. I had to return the Bobcat so I hightailed it out of there. Found a dead cat. I have to go back tomorrow. I may grab the Bobcat just for fun.
