Yes...new pics, updated story and projected goals...

I'll let you all know later...also, I can post pics on my blog, if you have some images of your route, I can post them up much easier than before and would love to host a blog page on your efforts. You might even be able to link the pics here...its worth a try!!!

Hi Cappy,

What is the genesis of the term "Blog". I know it's a website, but why blog?

Yes, the term "blog" is a conjunction of the term "web log." I will post the URL again, but I will warn you that I publish alot of POLITICAL, SOCIAL and ECONOMIC COMENTARY that many of my more LlBERAL friends might find objectionable.

Thus, I will wait until the Weekend to post the link once I have prepared the entry. I do not wi***o destroy friendships and fraternity among GR members by introducing them to my political view too early...unless you would like to go there and debate the issue...but remember...

YOU CAME AS A FRIEND AND, after all is posted, YOU MUST AGREE TO LEAVE AS A FRIEND...

Let me know...

Cappy,

Honest DEBATE is healthy. We can all learn from each other as long as we come to the party with an open mind.

as someone a lot more famous than me once said, "I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Having spent a carrer in the Army and been shot at (in more than one country) I can honstly say that I have lived my life that way.

Now, On to the debates!

In as a friend, [censored][oops][soapbox] as a mortal combatant, out as a friend!

Cappy:

I went.
Isaw.
I agreed (mostly any way)
Saw nothing to really get me up on the soap box.

I'm glad...I plan to use that blog to highlight various parts of my interests and document my reflections on Social, Political and Economic Issues as well as my GR related stuff. I must admit, the politics of the time is taking most of my attention.

That is until this weekend where, if the weather allows, I will make a post on TRAINS for my friends at GR.

Cappy;

When can we expect the next installment of GRR on your BLOG?

You've got some great shots (pix) out there in your diatribe.

Looking forward to more[;)][banghead][%-)][(-D]
