OK, so I'm on the right road...

...but where the heck is the ROAD???

(Note to self: Powerline right-of-way "roads" are NOT roads!)

Good ole GPS! One of my wife's uncles programmed his GPS on a trip to see us a few years back, but he kept being directed down narrow, off the beaten path backroads. He eventually realized the GPS had selected "bike trails" to follow.

That looks like some serious gear inches.

48x16 for about 79 or 80-ish inches.

Is Fall upon us?, or only a few trees tired of heat?

Out along the Snake River Canyon trail today. For those that don't know the area, this is Twin Falls, ID and Shoshone Falls in the background.

I lived in the Mini-Cassia area for 13 yrs. Love the picture but sure makes me "homesick" for that area.

Im at the back in black. My buddy Hazel in front. This is the day we did our first century.

Well, Alaska has a couple nice spots too. :)

I remember watching Wild World of Sports for what seemed like hours of pre-stunt hype only to thoroughly disappointed at Knieval's failure. I have mapped out a two-week loop from/to Boise that includes a night in Twin Falls. It has some logistical issues (some long days and food scarcity) so I have been hesitant to do it. I need to HTFU and go for it.

Got that right :)
Beautiful. We moved up here in '61 and I'm very glad we did. Kinda raised on homestead...2 story log cabin with a barrel wood stove, no plumbing, and hauling water from artesian well, but what a life it was.
lol, getting too crowded nowadays.
