Foggy this morning and put some new tires on a few days ago, had to take a few pictures.
"Pickin' stones and pullin' teats is a hard way to make a living. But, sure as God's got sandals, it beats fightin' dudes with treasure trails."
"We've been tricked, we've been backstabbed, and we've been quite possibly, bamboozled."

Pioche, NV is an interesting old mining town. They have the real Boot Hill Cemetery, one of pictures shows the regular town cemetery boundary and the Pioche Mine Tramway.

Wow ... And you can look straight down and see your shoes!
The last time I could do that I had lost 70 pounds because I had colon canecr! Then after 3 surgeries and 4 years about half of it came back to haunt me
If you really want something you'll find a way ... ... if you don't you'll find an excuse.
I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either

I feel like I need to lose a few myself. Not in the best of shape. My back is currently all sorts of messed up so any real activty other than walking is a stretch right now.

^ The seat?
Some great photos! I still need to find a new hosting site, I have a few meager additions.
Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs. Step Up or Stand Aside: Support the Troops ! Expectations are premeditated disappointments.

Seems like there should be a cross piece up front to hitch the horses to.

Keep the faith bro ... Complications of my cancer & surgeries resulted in an episode of Autoimmune Pancreatitis type II, severe osteoporosis gave me 2 compressed vertebra (before I was diagnosed) resulting in chronic mid-back pain, then double down with Rheumatoid & Osteoarthritis in my hands, knees & ankles.
The doctors at Mayo clinic not only saved my life but just going there gave me a whole new outlook on life ... I know what a lucky man I am. I may have problems but I encountered many people there that have much bigger problems than I.
If you ever find yourself getting depressed (or want a second opinion) go to Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. and just hang out for the day and see how lucky you are!

Kind of reminds me of this one near Jasper, Alberta, Canada: DSC_3088.jpg by David Casteel, on Flickr Our tour driver called it the "road to nowhere".

Trying to focus on certain colors during my walks around the day. Yesterday was red.
