That would have been exciting I guess, but no LOL. Just a suburb of Seattle or um in my case Redmond... or Red Hook... I spent a lot of time at Red Hook back then LOL.

I like riding the bike trail from Seattle to Redhook... It's in the valleys & alongside Lake Washington, all/mostly flat land. Easy riding after a few beverages.

One thing I miss about yer part of the world is just how bike friendly it is. Office had showers, lots of the people working there cycled to work, roads were built for cyclists not just cars. There was a cat 4-5 criterium that ran in the office park which was fun, but I hate riding with cat 5 dudes, they wreck too much LOL. I don't know how far into Seattle or Tacoma proper that goes, but out where I was, Bothell to Redmond and back was a really nice ride. Or hike/run as there is a trail that I could get to that went to Redmond too. Just had to watch out for giant yellow slugs (the are slippery when wet/squished!).

Here's a couple winter Pics. from this morning. Went out to the scene a 6:30 AM colder then cold, a driver (good friend of mine and usually a good driver) misjudged the corner while turning around and flopped a loaded ten wheeler (12 tons of salt on board) What a mess that was, I pulled the drive shaft, backed the brakes off and removed the sander shoot. It took 2 big wrecker/recovery trucks to get it out. My friend the driver was not hurt and very little damage to the truck, we have it back on the road tonight............but it was Cold out there.

Yikes....that looks like a mess. Glad your friend was not hurt.

Sorry for the lack of winter pics. I'm still struggling with some computer problems. Some of these might be repeat, but you probably don't care.

















My beer!


My beer!

considering they didn't open, nah, not bothered at all.

Everything has come to a standstill here, schools and government offices closed and police asking folks to stay off the road because we've had and major winter storm:
Thought you guys up north might offer us some advise on how to survive this.

HA!!

Here is a winter picture from Pensacola

They definitely are all the same...

Miserable here in Michigan, 45mph gusts, currently 7 with windchill hitting -18, but I think colder with the gusts. Movie, brews and SWMBO tonight. Lee Daniels' The Butler.

Big day tomorrow. Shooting to hit two ski mountains in the same day. LTD

Are you talking about skiing or flying?

Here's one from Saturday, after the fog burned off in Kent, WA.
