Lazy day, no progress unless you count washing the dishes and putting away the helmets I took on the trip. Audrey asked for those, helmet rental was so expensive she'd have been better off buying cheap ones for the kids, but since I already had some... Required for kids, some of the dirt roads were county roads subject to usual traffic laws, except side by sides were allowed on certain roads, including a paved highway.

Losing friends sucks, condolences. My Woods buddies outnumber my surviving friends now.

I had a pickup in Arizona that would get better mileage with the tailgate down or off. I put a shell on the bed that continued the cab's shape, and that got even more. Streamlining is a big deal. Long trips are gas expensive, for one person sometimes cheaper to fly. I still prefer driving, hate the airline experience we get today.
