    Norm, good to see you get the Triumph out. I thought that thing was going to have a new home by now.

        I still have the Triumph, no one wants to buy it. I was thinking about selling it and putting the money towards a sports car... Now I'm thinking about putting some sticky tires on it and maybe Track Day it... 👍

            this is what remains of the old lumber mill that operated for about 50 years and just to the right of the path is the old log pond. Fish and wildlife stock it, but you wouldn't catch me eating anything caught there.

              I had a few to choose from. First thing that came to mind was the Pink Elephant in Barboursville WV, which is a landmark solely for the purpose of being a landmark. A few decades ago a business owner set it up to attract attention, and that's what it does.

              I also thought of the Mothman, but I don't think that's the best photo I could come up with.

              So I'm going with this roadside jet half a mile down the road from my townhouse.

                Ha. Mothman is mentioned in Clutch's song Sleestack Lighting. The CD that's from has become my soundtrack of ny drive from Jersey to DC on the solo part of the trip.

                  Sandia mountains may be the most visible landmark in NM. They rise just shy of a mile above Albuquerque and can be seen within an area of around 11,000 square miles.
