    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game

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?.

A bike waiting in a queue is unnatural.

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.

 
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.

That just goes beyond the laws of decency.
 
I really need to get off of my arse and participate. Another week slipped by.

Anyway, Steve Murdoch's cow crossing gets my vote. Or as my Scottish mother in law might say... coo crossing.
 
Some fun pictures. Some tell a story.

I place my vote for Steve Murdock.
