Nance, I have secured leave for 8-14 so I am up for an Asheville exploration. I propose leaving Friday evening or Sat. morning. I'll be staying until Thursday when my conference (Tue, Wed, Thur) concludes. This could be fun. You in? Accomodations? Anybody else? |

Glen - Nice pic! Old Dog - We have had a great time at Daytona roughing it or chilling at the condo on the beach, either way it was fun for me. I would like to do a run to Holland Fish Camp this weekend. Southern good to here it, maybe we can convince a few more to go. Jim N & Mike, you guys have good timing. I just happen to get my vacation back on August the 12th. Jim, how long would you be going for? |

I would like to do a run to Holland Fish Camp this weekend. Southern good to here it, maybe we can convince a few more to go. Hmmm...let's see...Not to sound like the local HOG group (Ride to Eat and Eat to Ride), but there ain't no dang convincing needed on my part. I wanna go to the Holland Fish Camp!!! Saturday I need to pick up my freshly bored (to .020" over) cylinders about 13 (kinda funny how that number always turns up, isn't it???) miles outside of Goldsboro though... Fish Camp - YUM! Oldog, Carlos put it best when he said: We have had a great time at Daytona roughing it or chilling at the condo on the beach However when doing 600 mile nearly back to back days having accomodations that you don't need to pack up afterwards is usually a good thing. Now did anyone see where my 2 cents went? 1313 |

Mike, I'm thinking I'll be there. I need to talk Rebecca about schedules. I'm thinking I'll probably ride up there on Saturday morning. But I'm an early bird, so I'll be leaving here about sun up. I'd enjoy staying with my mom one night. I should probably clear that with her. Want to camp the other night? There's "too tired" up by Shady Valley if we end up that far north. There is also that place you found with the BMW guy the last time you went. Carlos - Come join us. We will have the BMWs outnumbered that way. |

IT LIVES!!! I was in the house, being a good girl, working on homework when I heard a beautiful sound.... sounded a little bit like a thumper... YEA!!! the blast is running again and actually looks like a motorcycle instead of a big paperweight. Webe took it for a short ride and says everything is good (except he needs to change/adjust the clutch cable) Anybody close by got a book Webe can look at?... if not we'll order one. |

WEBE's BG - You forgot he has to bolt down the front caliber. Mark was so proud that the bike is up and ready when we had lunch. Congrats. I went though the intersection that you had your spill on. It still had sand in the middle of the intersection but I had slowed down when I realized where I was. |

U4euh- Still want to take a ride with me over to Hickory? Yep, got a call today and the pipe is finally ready. I'll be leaving this Saturday around 10 am or so. Need to be there by noon. Screw work! Give me a holler if you can make it. Might head up to the blue ridge afterwards if time allows. Later... |

You forgot he has to bolt down the front caliber. M2nc... didn't forget...LOL didn't know...(had to ask what it was too) gonna let him ride it around a couple of days just to make sure he remembered to put everything back i'm just happy that it looks like a motorcycle again... but you and i know when classes are over.. and i hope he gets the kinks out soon...might be patient a day or so after that...but then... Very glad you realized where you were before you hit the sand...that was the first time i'd been down that road (although it did look familiar) at least on a bike.. I had hit the sand in the beginning of the curve and was in that pile of sand at the end of the dirt driveway by the end of it.. ttyl

I am a little too far east for breakfast, sorry BG. If you decide to go to the beach give us a shout. We have several in that area though. Jlnance is a early bird and he is close. |

I was so liking that chick too,,,,,Duke Alum? Jim, I sure hope you were wearing some State gear! G2 |

You know, they say Duke is a four letter word. As for State, you both have it all wrong, UNC Tarheels . . . . . . This could be bigger than the black/orange Uly controversy (Message edited by Ulywife on July 26, 2006) |

hope you were wearing some State gear! lol - If only I'd known what I was going to be doing when I left the house. Then, not only could I have found state gear, but I could have, oh, shaved and worn something other than the shorts with the clean sand in the pockets. |

GO DUKE thanks Jim, for meeting me on such short notice - it was good to see ya! Jim was nice enough to humor me - i really wanted to get a new duke shirt (havent been back here in 5 years!), and we were running a bit short on time, so we just ate at the juice/bagel/muffin/coffee place at the student center after i bought some stuff at the book store before i had to go pick up my co-worker at the airport. i'll be back in town next april for 5 days or so to attend my college reunion. so hopefully i can get with you guys with some more notice! GO DUKE see ya, D p.s. if anyone is up for some chapel hill trouble-making tonight, let me know - i do have a 6am flight to catch tomorrow, but could be convinced to....... |

Oh Dora - had to use that "Duke Blue" didn't you?!? Glad to see that you're up to traveling. Those Tylenol and Advil must be doing the trick. Jim Nance is a good guy and he's one of our early birds. Keep us posted on your next trip to NC and we'll definitely plan something, right or wrong! Of course, I may have to wear my UNC shirt........ My daughter is in the Duke Talent Search Progarm for 5th and 6th graders. She was a little upset at first that it wasn't UNC. But like we told her, if Duke calls your name, you answer! We may have to be closet Tarheels - LOL! Safe travels home, Kristi |

How in the world do you do it? These instructions are for Firefox. There is a similar thing you can do for IE, but I don't know what it is. On the left side of the page, up above the uses name who made a post, there is a small square icon. Right click on it. You will get the following menu:
Select the one that says "Copy Link Location." After you do that, you may use paste the link into your message. |

Jim, I know you are rapped up with RAM and I have been taking finals, but I believe 1313 meant the other GIRL! As in BuellGirlie. You know the Duke girl and not the Tarheel RAM and how the sand in your pockets was clean I don't want to know. TMI!!! |
