    I've had to stop for different things walking across the road, but never cows. Did they escape from something?

    After many tries, and guidance from spotter, he chose to call this good. Far enough forward so he could open his door.

    Actually, had a super ego do even worse on the other side. I had to stop him from taking my hood* earlier. It's at the loves rapido station Louisiana and they are slanted to create a blind back. I shall try to avoid staying there in the future.
    * if you can call the front end of a cascadia a "hood"

    Goat would appear to be in the line of fire, methinks he needs a new vantage point.....

    You know Bolt. He lives on the edge. He's a wild and crazy American guy.

    I love it when people get me. More and more frequently these days I will make a quip and all I get are blank stares.
    Here's one for ya. To remember how to pronounce Seguin Texas, I think of the composition "Begin the Beguine"
