    Cool topic, and one I unfortunately cannot add to. I tire a bit of saying it, and assume some may tire of hearing it, but for me to get away for a few hours let alone a weekend is tough in my current situation. My thoughts freaks me out a bit at times when I say to myself that when the kids graduate I'll be able to get out more. With a 15 and 12 year old, its really not that far off especially considering how time has flown by as they have grown.

    Justin, one of these years I really hope to Rally Like A Mutha...... you guys seem to have a blast.
    No hurry, Glen. As much as you want them to leave, cherish these years. They're gone eventually and it's a bit weird but you kinda miss the busyness.

    I rode over to an old friend's house yesterday who lived next door to me when I bought my brand new KLR in 2004. He bought a BMW at the same time. We both went through the break in miles together and counted the days till we could hit the highway for serious miles. I found he has moved and a for sale sign in the yard. It seems like last week our boys were in cub scouts together and in the same first grade class. They're almost done with college and have jobs now. Sheesh, does it ever fly by!

        Here is my picture for the Pic of the Week. This is from last year's Tina Wasserott Memorial Brown County Rally. This picture has the beautiful Ohio River in the background. With the clear blue sky and the warm temperature, it was a awesome day!🌞

          I was almost gonna submit my pic of that same scene. That is Lower Leavenworth, almost within sight, but lower elevation, than the place of Steves picture.

          ...later note: I meant Cowboy Scott's picture. I spent so much mental effort on remembering the name "Leavenworth" that I had a mental malfunction with Cowboys name.

            I had a picture???

            I missed that one. Looked through all my rally pictures and was going to select one, then life got in the way and I didn't get one posted.

                That is definitely the best STORY of the pictures.

                  I'm thinking he's talking about mine as that is the only other Brown County picture but as always he calls me Steve instead of my actual name.

                    Maybe I should have saved that lousy picture for a story thread, LOL. I was enjoying the conversation with the other guys and before I knew it the sun was down making any photo opportunity with the bikes more difficult.

                    Redman, your pic of you guys standing next to your bikes gets my vote. Makes me think of mounted soldiers getting ready to ride!
