I've seen your beautiful digs, not a bad place to be stuck, as long as the beer and bacon holds out.

We always have an adequate supply of all the most important provisions.

Oh, right. Happy Thanksgiving!

Here it's just another day. I was about to complain about having sunrise after 8:30 and sunset at 15:30 (or 3:30pm if you like), but then found out that in Zoe's home town they'll have their last sunset of the year on the 26th this month at two minutes after noon. Next sunrise will be 11:30 on January 15th. Time & Date

Nah, schadenfreude didn't work. I'm still feeling down.

I do not miss that at all!

Done, but only after looking at all the others too, some were pretty darn nice, others not so much.

Beautiful John.

Although I don't do the Facebook thing, it did allow me to cast a vote. Not sure if it counts, but you have it, just the same.

Just one question.

Where the Hell have you been?!

Racer X 69 · 11-23-2017, 10:04 AM - **3 Likes**

Waiting for Mrs Racer’s son to pick me up. Turkey is at her sister’s place, a 3 hour drive from here. She has been down there a week or so, helping their mom move into assisted living.

With time on my hands, I was thinking.

In the 5 years I drove Monstro and company, I drove far enough to circle the Earth more than 32 Times.
