We went to a rodeo Saturday night to watch the bronco buckaroos try to stay mounted for 8 seconds. Barrel races and lasso contests, too. It was lots of fun ‘specially when the clown threw out the peanut bags to the kids.

Glad you made it back safely. Look like you and the "Sheriff" had fun and saw some fantastic scenery.

We hope to see you at the next National.

Looks great solli. Now we know why you needed that luggage rack.

How many miles was that month long trip?

I put over 9,000 miles on Amelia and that rack worked great. My deepest gratitude goes to Sam Bird for his design and installation. I was stopped so many times by people inquiring about it that I lost count.
Comments were: "That's cool! Is it by GM? (Nope) "Wow, neat luggage carrier". etc.

I had to take the Montana plate off in Yosemite. The very polite Ranger informed me that two plates were illegal in CA.

I have never in my life seen rocks this big in the Atlantic! Mike is on the left side of the 8th picture and you can barely see him.

Solli,

Had you ever been to Yosemite before? What did you think of it?
