    I could use some positive energy...

    Jim -- at least you and your mother had the conversation in better times. Whatever the outcome, you will know it is the right one for this time. Best wishes. Bill Uffelman

    I could use some positive energy...

    Jim -- our thoughts are with you. My mother is 90.5 and quickly approaching the end of her run -- every time my brother texts me I think twice about whether I need to have the flight schedule in hand as I open it. Best wishes. Bill Uffelman Usually Las Vegas NV

    The Cruising Adventures of Wild Blue and crew...

    Had a Jeep Grand Cherokee rear ended -- bumper and trailer hitch took the whack. When they put it on the hoist at the repair shop you could see that the factory hitch had bent a little and a couple of welds had bulging paint indicating internal damage. Cost the errant driver $750 as I recall --...

    Dock catastrophe at Grand Lake

    Timing is everything! Years ago my last Ranger 20 sailboat was prominently displayed on a dealer's resale lot next to a dual highway. A drunk rocketed across the shoulder/ditch in the middle of the night and lodged his car in a power cruiser that had replaced my boat a couple of days earlier...

    Need internet service in remote location

    If you can find cell service somewhere in the house -- say upstairs by a window -- you can get a my-fi for Verizon and others that allows 5 devices or just get one for single computer for a little less. Mine cost $50 after rebate and $50 month. Cheaper than the $12 - 15 per night charges in...

    a week at PNW oceanfront

    As an Oregon native, UW attendee and Northwestern School of Law grad, I can empathise with the desire to see more of the Pacific coast. That drive on 13 from Norfolk to Newark DE did get boring some times back in 1969/1970 when I had to take my new bride home to see her mother - -at least we...

    Joel -- safe travels. They were putting new macadam down on US 93 by Pioche so it slowed me down yesterday morning having to wait for the pilot car but it wasn't too bad - -just dusty as heck with the top down. Bill Uffelman Nevada tour director Las Vegas

    C-Dory Sightings

    Don't know if they were headed to Powell but about 6PM passed an Oregon plated Cape Cruiser with two kayaks on top on I 15 just north of Las Vegas. Gave them a thumbs up as I made the exit to the 215 Beltway. I was in my white BMW Z4 with F4FXR USMC veteran license plate. I made a round trip to...

    Stuff that goes in the drink

    A friend dropped a USMC jeep into the ocean off Puerto Rico when auto release cargo hook on an H34 interpreted an up draft/down draft as being load on the ground. Oh well -- jeeps were cheap 50 years ago. Bill Uffelman Las Vegas NV
