    I've stayed at the Togwotee Mountain Lodge a few times, some pretty awesome snowmobiling around there. beautiful country. we used to take a few weeks every winter and do Tog and Cooke City.

    Had a new one today. Tried to get turned around on I-4 in Florida today by simply taking the first off ramp and ended up on a toll road. Said toll road doesn't honor ez pass because they are special like Texas. Had no cash and they wouldn't take my card. Always carry cash. Rookie mistake.
    Nice lady gave me a paper to fill out and return within 10 days and a good old fashion don't come back through here. At this point I'm kinda lost, and only had 38 minutes left on my eight, so I did what any reasonable person would do and turned around and got another piece of paper. Cost me 12 bucks for 4 miles. No wonder everyone around here smokes meth.

    Wait a minute.. now that I did a search on this parasailing thing, I found out that is not it... :biggrin_25512: There was no rope or anybody below controlling or pulling the flying object in the air..
    That flying "thing" had a motor and it flew by itself... Now, if you folks look again at the picture, and zoom in, you will see there's a metallic circle and a seat with a motor behind the seat...

    I don't think it's paragliding either.. :biggrin_25512:
    So... I found the name of that in Portuguese... it is "paramotor"...
    Found this short video on Youtube showing that on a beach not very far from where I am here... the name of that place is São Pedro da Aldeia.

    No automatic will ever be as responsive and reliable as any manual.

    Did that same thing in california, ended up costing me 51 dollars in toll violations... Think they do away with toll roads or it needs to be regulated that they all have to be under the same organization. Ezpass, bestpass, etc
