Not sure when picture was taken, but are things any better out there this year? I gather they're finally getting some water, but that doesn't change the fact that even the litter, grown in a dryer environment is just, plain, more resinous than even my pines... ETA - ...and I sort'a value old-growth pine knots down here as lighter wood." Every young man needs to learn "fat lighter", a nice fire by the lake, and a cold beer on a cool winter day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a problem with bikers, and fundamentally, I don't even have a problem with them not wearing helmets. But when a guy is riding in traffic and *his helmet is on the freaking bike*... yeah, I can't really get with that. And if I were in health care or any emergency response capacity, I know I'd have strong feelings about it. I have a Harley Davidson Streetglide and I never ride mine without a helmet. I don't have a problem with those that don't wear helmets in the states where its optional. Here is Florida it is optional. My issue with most of them (at least here) is HOW they ride, way above the speed limit, and weaving in and out of traffic like idiots. Most of those types of riders are on sport bikes and all they want to do is go fast (and obviously be stupid). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLoofus 35,182 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Several years ago on Cowrock Mountain in north GA. Little Gracie the Pug is no longer with us, but she was a special one. Nine pounds of pain. Many people in Atlanta wept when she passed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pug dogs are some goofy looking little guys, but damn they have a lot of personality! Sorry for your loss. Its a lot harder than some people realize.

Rolling Rock was all that was in the fridge, but it hit the spot on a hot afternoon. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Just finding this thread. I travel a decent bit so have some cool things to share. 1) Lightning hitting while playing a little Top Golf in Austin. 2) Our seats at the College World Series last year. 3) Beautiful scenery of the Cascade Mountains on a day trip in Seattle. 4) Old Stone Fort State Park in Tennessee (waterfall) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, what did you think about Top Golf? Huntsville is building one and I'm curious. Yeah, that pic was one of a bunch I took that day. We did a day trip from Seattle to go whale watching. Actually went all the way up into Canada to find some Humpbacks, but it was a beautiful day. Never really wanted to do an Alaskan cruise until that day. Top Golf is cool and you don't have to be a golfer to enjoy it. I've been a few times (live in Austin) and it's always fun. It is a little expensive though, so go with a group to take down the costs. Food and beverages being delivered to your bay while you play is really nice and the food is actually pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 @Brad_ATX, all great pics but that golf/lightning one is extremely cool. Agreed w/ @Barnacle about @Bigbens42 and the dad/baby stuff. Bring it all day, my man. I was just at the Verizon store trading baby girl pics with Ediri the Verizon guy. And, on that note, meet McLittle. This was one afternoon taking a random walk around our neighborhood. Also, having a daughter is mostly awesome. Sometimes you really have to step up. Especially if you didn't first make sure that the polish would come off. The ladies freaking LOVE it, though. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can take kids, but keep in mind that a bunch of very active little ones with golf clubs can peg the stress-o-meter. The one I went to was crazy packed on a Saturday night, so don't show up randomly on a weekend night hoping to waltz right in. When we left, the line resembled that outside a ride at Disneyland.
