OklaMoni, It didn't occur to me until we were visiting my brother-in-law in Vermont for New Years that he now has a place in Naples, FL we he would be at from just after New Years until April. Given that he is an avid cyclist he likely would have be willing and happy to host you on your trip. This past spring he came with a group to our area to cycle Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway, covering 600 miles over 9 days. I hope your trip went well and I look forward to your trip report and photos. It was nice of Florida to have several tornadoes while you were there, so that it would feel more like home. :-)

Those are very cool, Susan!! Digital, huh? I'll have to check it out. Thanks.

This has always been my favorite KT thread due to Casey's (and helpers) diligence in keeping it going each day. Love viewing all of the great pix of many different topics. I have to say the one that has really appealed to me today is mojomom's super shot from the deck. WooHoo! I would love to see something like that in my backyard. Instead, I look out and it's the backdoor neighbors big yellow dog over here taking a dump. I "fondly" call him Dumpster. :-) My yard guy calls him names I can't insert here. lol! Rosie

At 8am and 2 degrees, he is out there "tending to my babies" as he puts it. Notice, no gloves. He scrubbed the bath and the rock for the little birds in it and refilled it with fresh water too...no gloves.
