Several weeks ago Pat "from Ga." contacted me and said he and his wife would be coming through my area today so we met at Denny's and had breakfast together. It was nice meeting them and enjoyed the visit. I'll let you see if you can figure out who is who in the pictures.

Jeff, it was our pleasure... Always great when you get a chance to to meet someone in person you have interacted with over the forums!

We are just outside of Beaumont tonight, 4 hour ride in tomorrow...

Went looking for an eagles nest and all I could find was squirrels.

Stopped and helped this turtle cross the road safely. It was about as big as a DVD.

My wife and I were riding around Mobile, Al. today and spotted this church and thought it had a lot of character.
