Super Camera

It's funny, I've been going around joking to some folks about how my camera can take pictures right through things. Little did I know...watch this video to see a camera that takes a TRILLION frames a second. Yes, one trillion. It runs at the speed of light and when you watch the video, it will amaze you. It can even see around corners! Unreal where technology keeps going.

Yes, newer technique called a fat transfer...you can't reject your own body fat. Step down in prosthetic size each time to make room for the fat until last time, it's just you and nothing foreign in your body left.

I don't think I'd give up my touring bike for a main street cruiser. A three hour ride for me is a short one

Either way, I'd still want the touring bike. It's such a smooth ride and going full time, even more so as it'd be used for exploring areas and all. Full day rides

Perhaps I could go with an air mattress while traveling and once parked, put the water tubes back in. Or maybe I just need a heavier-duty RV

Fantastic! I'm often amazed at what new techniques & skills have been developed in medicine just in my short lifetime. What would our grandparents think?!

Still, this is a brave step forward for you, but it must also be exciting to think of. You rock!

Cheers!

We have an appointment to have the window in CR-VMutant replaced this morning. Can't do day trips with that plastic wrap. It's loud and hard to see through. [emoji12]

Morning, all! It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood....! (Cue &#127926

Apparently the new windshield is in, glue cured overnight, & we can have our Florence back at 3pm. Whether we leave immediately for home or spend another overnight is not yet decided.

In the meantime, the Elkhart Museum of American Art downtown has some Norman Rockwells! That is definitely on my must-see list & we have time for it today.

Then Martin wants to check out the new sound bar Thor has begun installing under the outside TVs in their newer units. That means a short drive over to Total Value RV where we bought Florence.

Add lunch & that's our day filled. Time to saddle up & check out. Cheers!

Wow! What the future will bring.

Think of it. So many years ago we had to pull over to the side of the road and use the phone booth to call someone.

Hello all, I had to catch up on 12 pages of posts.
Getting back to home in St. Louis from a weekend 3 night camping at Rend Lake, IL. Our group of four couples, have a weekend each month planned out for the year.
Greetings to the new member, Electrojake, yes I am west of the Mississippi, but do cross the river.
Latest rig adjustments have been driving to Searcy, AR to RV Fog Dr. for 6 windows worked on. Then to Moscow, IA to HWH to have them repair a severed hydraulic rear leveling jack line. This, to be ready for our longest outing to Rushmore, Yellowstone, and the Tetons trip planned for Aug/Sept. Should see the eclipse at Devils Tower.
