The 6th photo looks amazing on my phone screen, redbirds; amazing layering of colors in the water.

Cool guy,very friendly, deep voice, great smile and laugh.Listens to weird music though, so I sent him some of the good stuff a couple years ago.

Heh, heh, ... I am curious what "the good stuff" was.

Did it fix it? Smile

He sent me a CD with the song 3 Little Birds by Bob Marley (Every little ting gonna be aw-right) and I sent him a CD of 5 Byrds ..The Byrds Greatest Hits (To every thing, Turn Turn Turn, there is a season turn turn turn)

I was just kidding about his music being weird, I was just not accustomed to listening to that genre, and it was nice to step out of my comfort zone while listening to it.

I'm sure his hair grew a foot and he got all peaceful like when he got my CD in return lol

A fine sample Ferret.

Arguably the greatest pop culture music came out of the '60s and early '70s, IMO anyway.

All these kind words make me think that we must have another Nemo that I don't know about... Big Grin

It was great to catch up with my friend Redbirds. We haven't seen each other since before his major overhaul. We had a great time! He knows the best roads and best places to eat.



One thing... Steve and I said our goodbyes in Statenville, GA. I took GA94 to Fargo; rural, desolate road, flat and straight. About 30 miles. The CB had almost a full tank and used it all in those 30 miles. Super smooth in the neighborhood of 5k rpm sustaining 90-100 mph, but it gulped all the juice in the tank. Biker



Weird music, Ferret? You haven't heard any of it... If you heard my playlist your head would explode. Big Grin I like the 60'smellow vibe of The Byrds... Very like Mickey!

Peace!

Never met Redbirds, but hope to ride with him someday. Very much enjoyed getting to know Nemo a little at the rally last year.

Let’s see.... if I rode 5 or 6 hundred miles southeast and Redbirds and Nemo rode about the same, but northwest .........

I see a plan in the works!

FYI, Knoxville, TN is almost exactly half-way between Chicago, IL and Jacksonville, FL
