GET BACK TO WORK!

(as a retired person, I couldn't resist)

Since i'm retired anyway I figure I'll do even less work and head our on our annual driving trip this coming Saturday. Will be a little short this year - only driving about 4500 miles. All the latest Custom POI's I use are loaded up and raring to go. First stop is Dollywood in Pidgeon Forge.

I hope everyone has a GREAT week !

Hope all had a great extended weekend and are ready for a short work week.

Hello all.

Not complaining, but is anyone else exhausted today?

These three day weekends are tiring. A lot of running around.

Have a great week everyone!

Hope everybody enjoys their Memorial day weekend with fun in the sun and great barbeque's

Hope everyone had a fun and safe Memorial weekend, now it's back to work.

Looks like another 3 months of oil spill news

... now I gotta start my week !!!

GO LAKERS!!!

Decided to extend mine for the whole week. All have a great week.

Hello to all the members today.

have a great week ahead...

...and a week for shorts.

I'm really liking the "My Favorite Files" link under my account, makes it a lot easier to know what POI file needs updating.

Everyone here have a great and safe week!!!

I smoked three racks of ribs yesterday, and if I do say so myself, they were the best that I have ever smoked.

Rolling Thunder in DC was awesome, as usual! Saw a lot of bikes with GPS.

That May Qualify You... for addition to the BBQ POI file.

What are your hours of operation?

I hope everyone had a Happy Memorial Day!

[Just wanted to tie this to your post, so I quoted.]

And so appropriate for the Memorial Day observance. I have researched the history of the Eighth Air Force and specifically B-17s for many years. Not only is it arguably the most beautiful airplane ever designed (it's got to be the graceful dorsal fin), but it may also be the most significant airplane ever designed.

While the B-17s did need fighter coverage help in spite of their nickname as the "Flying Fortress", any design less than this would not have given the Allies enough guts to even try daylight bombing, especially when the British were only willing to do night time bombing because it was less costly in lives and planes.

Just a few years ago I was fortunate enough to take a 30-minute ride in one of the few remaining flyable B-17s, the Aluminum Overcast of the EAA. While I enjoyed this dream of a lifetime, I couldn't help but feel guilty over this "joyride" knowing that over 40,000 brave, young men never returned from their missions in similar B-17s. I knew I was coming back--they didn't and yet they still went up.

I know this is the proverbial "day late and a dollar short," but my deepest gratitude to all our servicemen and women who have served, are serving, and will serve.

I settled for bun-length Oscar Meyer tube steaks & marshmallows last night with a campfire in the backyard.

Hope we all remember the purpose of the holiday. We can never forget those that served so well.

hope everyone had a safe holiday weekend

At least its not raining here in tacoma yet.

Am I still on vacation?

Howdy

Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday.

Had such a great Memorial day I never turned on a computer. Hope the rest of the week is a great one for all.

Have a great week.

Hello

Happy memorial day and week to all!

Hope everyone had a safe and fun memorial day

loved the article in the times about how the government is improving on the GPS signal. I can wait until this is completed.

Back from a long weekend
