I have slight tinnitus. I'm so glad I listed to you guys and wore hearing protection. My left ear rattles from a grenade going off while it was being thrown at me.

And Crocs.

Most of the time. Sometimes it's pretty bad.

The new ones can mask background noise.

Putting together a ride to meet with Chuck and Trish mid-October. Hopefully Sherri and Mick can join for the run to Gulf Shores, AL. The rest of you guys are welcome to hit it too.

Gulf shores? As in Corpus area? ****, I'm cross eyed. Time for bed. Alabama.

That's 800 miles from here. So, a good day's ride, if you let Bob tell the tale. I'll keep it in mind and see if I can sneak out. I can't make any promises while I'm still employed.
