So, a small sampling of what I've done with my summer the past few weeks. Life is good, God is great. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...psmb9xux0v.jpg |
Thanks for the pics, Doc. Jimmy has made a terrific improvement in his fitness level! I hope he can carry that through to even better fitness. Please give him my regards.
I particularly appreciate the pic looking over the wild flowers to the lake below; quite an amazing shot. |
Jimmy has lost about 170+ pounds so far. He is targeting to be under 200. He's been eating healthy and exercising a lot for the past 18+ months and plans to stay on it, God willing, the rest of his long and healthy life.
His eating habits on the trip were quite unexcellent regarding food choices, so he still has a desire to eat poorly. I know he can keep it in check however and I do whatever I can to support him. |
That looks awesome Doc! Many, many fine places you've been!
Mrs. 2LZ and I used to load up both the Vics and go tour the Lassen area annually. We'd set up camp on Hat Creek and take day trips out and use the camp as a home base. You undoubtedly road right by our old campground. Here's a sample of those trips. |
Great pic, 2LZ! If only I could learn to relax a little like that.
Lassen is so undervisited it's a California gem. Yosemite is overrun, but no crowds in Lassen. Plus it's close to you (so is Yosemite you lucky dog). We hiked on King Creek, out to Bumpass Hell, and on Hat Creek. I checked to see but you did not leave a beer for me at your campsite. |
So wonderful .
|
Yall were surely active. I can just imigine the reactor was really clickin (heart and lungs). Great pics. Will share them.
|
Nice pics. Thanks for sharing, Doc
|
Nice pics Doc ,also glad you have Jimmy ,the blonde chick on the Ducati a few months back was way out of your league ,Jimmy and you look happy together .:p
|
Ask Randy to work on a design fix for the Remington R51, would you? :doh:
|
LOL!
Trust me this is not an area you need to be concerned. Miss Nancy and I continue to do well, and she remains the Beauty of the Ducati! With that said Jimmy is my best friend. We met before kindergarden and have been friends ever since. We have done an annual motorcycle vacation together almost every year since I moved out West 20+ years ago. |

I see Jimmy has nice taste in American motorcycles! I have a "Jimmy" myself. Met when we were wee tots and just had our "50th" last week. We joke that we've outlasted most marriages. The number of hangovers is countless. ;-) |
You are blessed 2LZ. There is no improving on time spent with an old friend.
The Indian was awesome. Very good power. It was 'more' of everything than a HD except weight. Much quieter, smoother suspension and transmission, decent handling for a mega cruiser. Good electronincs and seating position for those inclined to a cruiser motorcycle. Same price as a HD, but higher performance. Not a bad idea. No worries with Nancy. My desire to be clubbed to death like a harp seal on the pack ice far exceeds my desire to get remarried. How good the girl looks on an Italian racebike not withstanding ;-) |
