Air quality is noticeably better this summer due to this... thing. No grey haze, every day has a blue sky and white clouds or none at all. It's a dang heat wave but fairly tolerable, It's hotter inside w/o a/c than outside I've noticed. Today there was a nice breeze blowing. Early is great. At first, with this heat wave, the mornings were low to mid-60s. But now it's inched up to beginning the day above 70. Still the best part of the day. Evenings cool right off, so second best.

Cold beer and a good burger sound great. So does a road trip, I’m due for a change of scenery.

Me too! But I have to work, so working back on the 1915 cedar cottage on the Severn River near Annapolis I worked on last year will have to do. I "invited" my son to come along to experience the other Maryland, "Land of Pleasant Living". I don't need another hand but I'll keep him busy. Then maybe a beer and crabs and sleep over. He has to be back up the road by 10 am Wed.

I was up on South Mt yesterday in PA at a friends, about the same distance away (about 50 miles) as the job tomorrow. That was nice. Maryland is Little America. I haven't been to the ocean for years, but hopefully I'll get down to see Richard 2717 and get my toes into salt water. My son has been already this year

MY oldest daughter and her family relaxing week before last by Kite Lake, near Beartown, CO. I didn't take a lot of pictures on that trip.

Guess what this is:

prairewolf · 08-25-2020, 06:22 AM

The song Born Free by Kid Rock is my new favorite. the video shows good homage to Pontiac too.

**Chevyland** · 08-25-2020, 07:11 AM

Kid Rock is my all time favorite Singer
I’ve seen him in concert more than any artist

no worries and thank you for clearing that up..

doesn't prove I'm not losing my mind but doesn't confirm it either

Killer Bee · 08-26-2020, 09:59 PM

stepped out of my office and see this, doesn't exactly inspire confidence in those little trucks

**special-K** · 07-20-2020, 09:45 PM

That's great that you not only take nice true get-away vacations, but you draw your family together with them. I hope to get my brother together with us for a raft trip on the Youghiogheny River with my buddy's outfit. I have a standing "free trip for family" invitation with him. He got that started 40 years ago this year. Roger is truly the best kind

I usually float the Buffalo River with my youngest daughter and her family fathers day weekend but that got canceled this year.

Larry, are you lost in the wrong thread like I do?

This isn't Chevyland Eric's "Pictures you took" thread, it's other Larry's Facetruck and that means random whatever you do is fine... except politic, religion, bashing other trucks, quarrelling, using non-family oriented content, crochet, sushi, fondue, Gucci fashion and limburger cheese

Paddling a river is a great way to enjoy a day with others

We used to canoe the White River south of Cabool Missouri back in the late Eighties. We would camp/set in at Twin Bridges.

That’s a fact.
Kayaking looks like it’d be a blast.

I’ve been white water rafting with a bunch of my buddies on the Arkansas River back in 2013 and again 2015. I think those years are correct. We would set in at Cotopaxi Co. In 2013 we went down to the Royal Gorge. The second trip they said the water was moving to fast/volume or something like that raft down to the Gorge.

**special-K** · 07-21-2020, 12:30 AM

Roger and these other boaters go places no one goes. In case you want some entertainment, here is a day they ran the North Fork of the Black River in WVA.

**special-K** · 07-21-2020, 12:30 AM

Wouldn't it be great to get us all together for a raft trip?

Roger put this video up:

For the love of Water - YouTube

I know these guys in this video about how the race on the Youghiogheny got started. They asked my dad to be the official timer for the first races. I found this video and boy does it bring back memories. I never reached the level of these guys. Jess is a wild man. He built boats when they were still fiberglass. He came up with the small short boat design many use today. I remember he made a Darth Vader helmet. He's a self-taught engineer. Never did college. BTW, they don't mention it, but the Upper Yough is run on damn release.

Here is a wild and crazy day they had on the Upper Yough. Not dam release
