Ahhhhhhhh! Thanks Lady D!!! I got my fix now! Whew.....It's nice to not be jonesing again! :lol::lol::lol:

I know what Pibit means.....I think that food on the road is an integral part of a road trip (why would folks post pictures of food?) :shrug::lol::shrug:

If I remember right, I think I saw some really neat things and good roads going to Cheaha, at Cheaha and coming back from Cheaha. Well, except for getting to know a brother and sister a lot better, I can boil most of my Cheaha trip down to the following: :lol:

(Things that you will remember for the rest of your life - the great things about road trips...like......)

Hey Tracy - we may be seeing you and Brother Don in a few weeks....Man, we don't have the first stop planned yet. Things may be reversed depending on where we are at on the road for July 4th. I will be in touch and call ya when I get from Bawanaland in Africa.....But, just for planning purposes, is there a cool place to eat in that place folks are meeting at for the Blue/Gray? Wythteville? Seriously, there is NO ride route planned at this time, but one route is riding Superslab, the same as the Blue/Gray, up to Penn. Just ONE of the routes right now....

Anywho, I will call ya when I get home....Cell phone don't work in Africa.....

MAN, I AM READY FOR THIS RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!! :biker::biker::biker::biker::biker::biker:
