    dad's birthday was Friday & we'd planned to leave early ride long way to telico & around then take him to dinner somewhere Saturday night.

    Well that work thing got in the way again. So after a half day at work, robin, the chrome slug & me went to dalohanga for a late lunch.


    the scare crows were out.

    checking this out it was in the river for years & I guess nobody was sure what it was. all you could see was the stack sticking out of the water. Turns out it's an old diving bell they used to mine for gold under the river.

    Long story, but they pulled it out and restored. Now it sets just off the square.

    after walking around, eating fudge we slipped out of town the back way.

    instead of staying up there we were heading home. After everyone left we went across the street to the sand bar, robin did some dancing and I smoked a cigar before the trip over the mountain.


    A buddy I went to high school with walked up. We were bs ing admireing the view hanging out like guys do.

    short version of part of the conversation

    me; that gal sure is proud of her thong

    him; which one

    me: right over there that guy in the gray tshirts blocking your view

    him; that girl in the red shirt

    me: yea, check her out

    him: man that's my wife

    :huh opps



    open mouth insert foot

    looks like the rain picture showed up after all.

    After rain robin was getting off so I waited around long enough to eat supper with her before heading out.

    In my travels I always try to take pictures of unusual & unique things.

    As in a beemer on a trailer.

    Almost dark I stopped for the state sign, put on a jacket & realized they put those bushes there so a fellow would have a place to take a wiz.
