Due to recent good fortune, please do not count my post as an entry. Two spectacular prizes offered, very nice.
A few random pictures from my gallery of photo albums.
Two favorite places to be; Lynchburg Tennessee and the drivers seat of a Corvette.
I also rode my motorcycle out to Vancouver Island several years back. I drove across America and went into Canada at Sweet Grass Montana, staying in Malta the evening before penetrating into the Canoodian Hinterlands. The drive from Calgary west into the Canadian Rockies is one of the finest on earth (that I have seen that is....). I stayed in Banff, Revelstoke and then on Vancouver Island.
The overlook at Kamloops was awesome.
We came back into the states on the ferry from Victoria to Port Angeles.
This picture was taken waiting for the ferry from Vancouver to Vancouver Island.
The nice thing about being on a bike (amongst others), is that they load you on first on the ferries, and then unload you first, like rock stars.
You do have to tie your steed up, they provide ropes to secure the bikes from toppling over if the waves get rough.
I took the folliowing picture in Vegas at the Encore. They had these giant mylar balloons in the hallway. I was drinking and gambling with my wife, and snapped this with my phone because I thought it looked cool.
Here is a view from the catwalk at the United Center after I had launched Benny.
Here is an interesting subject; we were on the river in my friends boat listening to a rock concert held on the waterfront (Foghat) when one of the other boats on the river caught on fire. It was totally engulfed in a matter of a few minutes, but the people on the boat got off and were quickly picked up by other boats.
Hawks game from the skybox.
Bears game last season from the south end zone.
How about detail shots of JK Liner Lock #1 -
That is enough for now. Thanks again for the thread Mykel, and I second Mack's kind words.

Not generally - I'd recommend bringing along a flashlight (speaking from experience, some of those trails take a lot longer than anticipated) and cell phone (a lot of the trails get good reception since they're often on mountains and so have no interference in case you need to call for help - or just to let people know you're running late). I'd actually recommend not bringing along a machete or anything else that is large and potentially scary-looking; it's really not common practice (at least on O'ahu - things may be different in some of the more rural areas on the outer islands) and would probably be off-putting to anyone you crossed paths with.

Thanks,I thought since it gets as hairy as you made it sound you might need a cutting tool now & again to clear branches or vines.

and an article to read you say? sure, this one dropped right into my wheel house while teaching one of my courses this summer, you might find it interesting, you might not
New Archaeology about the origins of farming
The course is about the development of society from the neolithic revolution (essential - among other things, and ignoring the fact that the idea of a revolution goes against the current grain of current scholarship in a number of ways...degrees are boring - the beginning of farming) all the way up to today so it fit right in.
