It doesn't show up well on the map, but we were in Michigan. My brother-in-law lives in Grand Rapids and we parked at a state park at Gun lake near there. Saw President Fords museum and other things in the area. It is a pretty state. North Carolina, we have never been to and probably never will. I am going to try to get a semi-permanent route set up. I have a standing invitation to volunteer at Steamboat Lake state Park and I want to set up the same in southern Arizona. Four months volunteering at each end and two months between to travel.

halfwrite, I just saw your post and will be making the point of 70 in May, just about 63 days, but who's counting. I like your attitude and feel much the same, I still don't feel that old and don't intend to start feeling old for another 20 years. My dad passed away
around 2 years, 2 months ago at 97. I hope to make it for a while yet. Happy 70th and many more to you sir.

72 here and a month ago finished repairing a car that sat in mu garage for a long time then helped a younger man cut down a tree in my yard. When we finished that I started on another tree by myself. 25' up with a rope and chainsaw. I topped it and hauled all the branches to the dump. It took a week and then started the rebuild on my 16' vintage trailer. Don't want to stop, must keep going and get up out of the recliner. I did ride a Valkyrie motorcycle until an accident a year ago so my new hobby is woodworking in my shop. I like it and making things in wood if a fun hobby.

Happy Birthday from it seems the younger in the group, 65. My dad told me when I was very young that "everyday you wake up on the right side of the grass is a good day, enjoy it". It took me a long time to understand what me meant but, as always he was right. Note the name of my boat "Sea's the Moment".

Love the name! "Sea's the moment."

There have been any more birthday wishes ad I am thankful for them. Biker Art, I can work just as hard as I could when I was 20. I jut don't get as much done.

As to Ryder, we got him just before we started fulltiming. We decided to call him Ryder because that is what he does--he just rides around with us. We got him from a dog pound in Lakewood CO, so we are not sure of his breed. But, I think he is a poodle crossed with a garbage disposal. I know he is Ethiopian because he is always hungry and he eats bananas and tree roots.
