    Okay, the theme for this week is "Delayed." Any situation where you were held up or waiting in line--for traffic, for a gas pump, for for border crossing, for enhanced driving award, etc. This shot is on the Going-To-The-Sun road in Glacier National Park on which there are two seasons, winter and maintenance.

      Great shot Don, great theme, great place. If you lived closer you could plan around the day between the 2 seasons. LOL.

          I don’t have and won’t get a pic this week of something like Don describes but this is “Waiting on a line, for paint to dry”.

              Stuck parked on I-65 North of Louisville due to a bad wreck ahead. This would be 2007, my first Brown County rally.

              Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                  I rode the bike to the local park to participate in a 5K run.
                  I misread the start time and showed up an hour early,
                  so I took a nap. ish.

                    Hi Bill, sorry for the delay. Its an old Yoshimura system that came on the 1150e I bought in 1998. No idea about which model system, etc. Pretty tough to come by these days.

                          When the "highway" came thru town in the early 1960s, it included a four lane bridge over the river. But early in the construction of the bridge it was determined that the bedrock was further down that expected, and bridge design needed to change. And in the design change the bridge became a bascule bridge (same call "draw bridge"). So ever since we have this nuisance on north side of town.



                          Causes a lot of delays, mostly in the summer - - mostly dern sail boats.
                          On this occasion I was near the front.

                              Out for a ride last summer and delayed by cows.
                              They head back the other way after eating in the pasture all day.

                                Somewhere in Wyoming waiting for road construction crew to let us through. We stood around for a good 20 minutes.
