Greetings From A BIG State

No riding news, just wanted to say "hello" from Fairbanks, Alaska,
where it is still dusk at 1:30 in the morning.

Is it just me, or is Alaska REALLY big?

P.S. A few Alaskan pics can be found at:

Beautiful scenery, great pics - Thanks Tim.

Reminds me of the tale I heard about a Texas biker that wandered up there...

 

I don't want to talk about it..

 

Sorry Bill... can't remember - was it whoop up on an eskimo princess and
make love to a grizzly bear. ;-)

 

<chuckle> The military flew me into Adak one time.. That sucker was covered
with snow and you had to go through a tunnel to get to the mess hall..

I worked on the pipeline for a short time, later.. Then I was foolish enough
to
jump on a motorcycle and ride up there, once..

When they made that sucker a state and Texas became just another one of
the lower's.. it was just too much for me to bear.. Hells, bells.. it takes
too long
to cross Texas, anyway.. There's just not much use in any state being
bigger..

Without prejudice.. I'll declare that when Texas became the second largest..
it was the beginning of the end.. Life as we know it in Texas, will never be
the
same.. I don't want to talk about it.. hmmpfff

Thanks, Bill. Got back last weekend, and got back to riding again.
Whew; two weeks without riding is a LONG time.

I'll tell you though, after the planes, trains, buses and boats on
that Alaska tour, I'll be glad to have a chance sometime in the future
to RIDE up there and see it all on my own schedule and terms.

Updated the photos, too. http://tinyurl.com/2sbjxu

 

I missed you on the tour through Fairfax area this past week....did
you notice all the rain on Sunday? That was ME!

Not to worry, I'll be back week after next!

 

Maybe if you call this time, you'll identify yourself!

 

You still in Herndon? I was just a couple miles there...between
Fairfax and Herndon....

Maybe if you'd answer your phone this time....just kidding, I didn't
call this past time because my schedule was too tight and I knew you
were jet setting the other end of the country. You going to be home
when I get back out there in a week after next?

Hail' fire, Brian, every time our distinguised Reeky buddy, comes on,

Town''..............b.....j.........

Yeah, weird huh?

 

Yep. Give me a call; we'll go for a ride, I'll buy you a beer at
Jimmy's Old Town Tavern, our local pub.

I like that bar, spent a lot of time there in the late 80's, when it was
Foot Annakin's.

Wave to the firefighters for me.
