From yesterday, face the wind: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1756578718.jpg Grass, humor me, is a little high because it has been so dry. The bank down to the Potomac faces due South and gets sun all day. That is my story and I am.... |

More of a Tug NW style- The Skagit, named after the Skagit river I surmise. It worked the waters of Ross lake for decades, I suppose it just got too long in the tooth and too thin of the metallurgy to keep maintaining. It was up on Ross dam in 2008, got transported somehow to a flat-ish area a little below the dam and then cut to bits and hauled out. There is no road access to this area and had to be barged out. Seems to me it would have been easier to drag it down to Diablo and floated to where there is road access- 2008- http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1756652718.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1756652718.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1756652718.jpg |

In September of 2020, my kids and I went on a backpacking adventure in the Bridger Teton National Forest in Wyoming, hiking the Sky Pilot Loop.

Great to see you out and about Marv!!
Colorado wanderings, first time visiting more than the Denver airport in this state. Had a trip set up last year and came down with Covid. Reset this year and it’s fantastic! Three nights in Estes Park exploring the Rockies and acclimating, our home is at a whopping 210’ above sea level so hanging out at 7500’ to just shy of 12k is waaay different. Took it easy but we both had boarder line altitude sickness at 11k that signaled time to get down, not funky. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757821767.jpg |
Lunch moved inside, the lightning storm was great entertainment. Winds were bouncing our rental SUV for added effect 👍

Yoiks!
By jove that is odd! Estes park has some odd ones too- http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg Grand Junction for a couple nights, the drive was beautiful at times and white knuckled at times, flash flood warnings in effect and deluges. 75 mph speed limit on 70 would have been insane, more like 40 and emergency blinkers watching the fog line. Colorado Monument park in the morning and Grand Mesa tour in the afternoon. It’s reputed to be the largest Mesa on the planet, over 300 alpine lakes and 10k+ elevation http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg Grand Mesa views http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1757943809.jpg |

Just backed out of the garage…I live close to the ocean but not in it! |
^^^ :D We've come to rely on these stupid things so much. I had an 07 Jaguar with an early GPS that didn't show some newer main roads in the area. I'd be driving and all of a sudden I'm floating in no man's land on the GPS and it was disorienting!
