[pdedse]

I've started a road report at ADV Rider about a [url=https://advrider.com/f/threads/can-i-still-camp-3-5-nights-central-oregon-and-rls.1464552/]Central Oregon trip on my 2007 KLR650 that I just finished.

Go there for write-up if interested, but here are photos of Day 1:

Pdedse, good stuff...looks like you are on a diet while your KLR is gas thirsty.
Enjoy your beautiful journey to its max

I've kind of given up meat little by little over the years. As a kid I remember just feeling exasperated when they'd plop down a big steak in front of me. Then all of red meat after working closey with slaughterhouses. Then fish would give me issues...now even chicken and turkey taste all too often like I imagine road kill to taste. Not against meat from a moral standpoint...I just "undeveloped" a taste for it. Eggs, cheese...still good!

Well heck, might as well get you off of the chicken fetuses as well..

Cheese.. that's just cow's breast milk, no killing involved.

Maybe an occasional goat, sheep, buffalo, or other..

Who doesn't like cheese? Soo many varieties. Soo good.

Haha...like I said, it ain't no moral thing with me--I've never tried to convince anyone to not eat meat. If people want to buy packaged meat from grocery, butcher, hunt, fish...it's all good. OK, seeing, smelling how IBP (now Tyson I believe) processes animals, I'll admit that got to me a bit. But it was more the smell. Then when I'd see hamburger I'd smell IBP and lose my appetite for it, that's all. It was simply a personal turnoff.

Now chicken fetuses...they simply taste good! And cow's milk? No problem with liquid, solid forms. I'd hate to think of life w/out [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7rzSslub6U]"Cheese, we'll go somewhere where there's cheese"
