I remember taking pictures then look at them later and can't figure out what I was thinking at the time.<br /><br />It only rained the first day and yesterday everything got dried out.

No thanks, man, they'll tear your face off. We spent a couple of weeks in California and that's all they ever told us. Don't screw around with bears cause they'll tear your face off.<br /><br />The site looks beautiful, though (and wifi, seriously?!) Nice. That makes a good day great.<br /><br />Brady<br />Behind Bars - Motorcycles and LifeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424120592303852860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-72199100390258253222012-07-06T11:41:57.150-08:002012-07-06T11:41:57.150-08:00It seems rather more civilized than I had envision...It seems rather more civilized than I had envisioned from the hard core stories on ADVrider.

Things will heat up as you head south.<br /><br />And lots of critters to see too.
