I'll refresh your memory of Lake Powell. It was damned up in 1963, so by late 60's and early 70's Powell was thriving. It finally filled to capacity the first time in 83'....over 500 ft deep in some spots, and 185 miles long, I could be a tour guide I've been there so much
These are the photos I wanted attached, I did not realize I was quoting a quote. Joe, you can get FTE Ken to deduct one post from my total if you like...............LMAO......
now we know where you get it from. girls on dirt bikes or quads whatever are friggin' hot in my book.
Had a dirtbike back in the day, but these days this old lady just hops around on an ATV. My Yamaha Kodiak. Not the fastest quad out there but slides around corners nicely, is fairly easy to jump for a 4x4 and never gets stuck.
yes, thank you. got it jammin good and loud right now!
i love the picture, after the collar bone this summer i'm not sure if Julie will let me go again for awhile...
I think I'll leave the running to Forrest Gump this time, I would friggin DIE. I'm more of a biker, but I wouldn't even venture to do that yet....it's like 20* outside, and my nose is plugged.....doubtful I could even breathe lol
Men are wieners when they get sick.
lol
Travis maybe one of these days I'll meet you out at Powell. Sounds like a blast.

Was that the picture of you with no shirt on with your arm in a sling?
My dad had many stories about escaping both police and forest rangers on dirtbikes. Now you guys know where I get my crazy from. Although, I'm not quite as nuts as Brendan.
nuts huh? hmmmm... lets see....
the guys i rode with, we had a sweeper.... one guy would go ***** out on the highway to pull the cops... i'm talking sustained 150mph rip... we had safe houses setup, bail money.... only did that one a few times, but you knew if you got caught you were going to jail
how many of you have ever pulled over a cop to ask them why they were driving so fast? i have.... she nearly f'ing killed me, so yeah, i did it...
ever pull up at a light and be right next to a cop? take off hard but get right up to the limit and stay there? then when they go to pass you, honk and wag that "no no NO" finger at them? yeah, that'll start some interesting conversations...
Don't get me wrong, I have a great deal of respect for policemen (and women... bring the cuffs baby!!) but so long as they don't abuse the power given them - our guy Mike (Tenn01???) is one I would never disrespect. But go live in MD for a few months... they're most likely the opposite of Mike, and it's a shame
Still... the adrenaline rush is ADDICTIVE!!!!

Yeah, probably... and maybe 'cuz it's about the only time we get a little catered to... when's the last time you heard of the wife/gf getting a "honey-do" list? LOL

Make sure you fill us in. Your life has become a soap opera within the OT...
You'd be surprised how depressing I find these pictures. I really do miss the desert. It just gets to damn cold at night there in the winter time though. I remember a real bone chilling cold. Is that how it seems to you too?
Well it's not even close to a desert climate where I live (Flagstaff) I'm at 7000 ft elevation. This picture was taken about 1 mile from my house
Yeah, probably... and maybe 'cuz it's about the only time we get a little catered to... when's the last time you heard of the wife/gf getting a "honey-do" list? LOL
What do you wanna bet I'll have one..sorta. Randy and I believe in splitting duties 50/50...and I can get lazy with stuff sometimes (a lot of times). So, I can see him giving me a list!
pffftt.... I just lay in bed and take Nyquil, TheraFlu, or whatever medicines we have around that knock me out. The last time I got sick (the "Iraq Crud" that everyone gets when the first get there I'm not counting!), I was knocked on my butt for days. Look back at the beginning of this thread -- I told that story back when we were talking about getting shots in the @$$.
Update on that Odometer trick I posted last night.... It wipes out your trip odometer (DAMMIT!!). I track my mileage so I'm screwed this time. But it does indeed return to standard odometer mode when you cycle the key.
EDIT: Also, one of the things you can look at is the odometer, so you can still see it even in that mode.
