Glitches were truck related. Not food. Cost me a lot of time. But I has arrived at the Ghost Ranch and the meat is in the frig up the road a piece. Wife is already p.o.'ed at me so.....we are good to go.


Wood pile looks mighty nice in person, too. Schizzman pushed back his arrival to seven at the hotel in Gatesville. So I am holding down the fort until replacements arrive.

Home. Plug held is holding so far. Had a good time. I didn't see a tip jar at the ranch. Who do I need to repay for the food?

That would be me. But you didn't drink so it ain't much. For those that did drink and didn't buy or brew their own beer, it is a number roughly approximating the national debt of a small African country.

It ain't over till everyone gets home safely but.....speaking for myself, I had some kinda fun. Some real characters. Campfire was lively. Riding was great. Couple of get-offs we could have done without.

Run to LC today was a blast. I think we Texans did good.

Shady. We'll miss you. Hope you can make it back for Roll the Bones. At least Alabammy ain't as far as Afghanistan.


Everybody else ....pray for rain.

Re: shady's "Last Ride" Campout 9/1- Gatesville

Rockin' good time! Can't type with this Mr2MchGHOST-style right hand but giving it my best shot. It was a total pleasure, great rides, great company, great food, great fire(s) - if you weren't there, you missed an excellent-in-every-way event.

Many thanks!!! The bruises are outstanding! Best to you, shady!

Yeah, Kat. I think Dody (ghost) is still feeling the arm pain, too. And you made it across Dody's cattle guard of death just fine. You must have used better technique.

It was a pleasure spending time with y'all . Come back down and see us anytime. Maybe a little Rally action? RTB will be here before ya know it. Go to Facebook to stay updated. We also have a Rally thread going. But go to fb, too. We need friends and especially friends who comment. And hey. now you can say you helped with re-con.

TTR have fun on our roads? I know Q liked 'em. Well. All except the loose stuff on that 3150 creek bottom hill climb. And, oh yeah. The dastardly entrance gate. Sorry for the fall. But dang. You rode some pretty interesting roads.

And you can straighten some folks out, too. We are not all completely nuts. Just some of us.

And hey. You can now say you rode with the slowoldguy. That's something right there.
