V-ROD Mama
I wanted you to see that indeed I do ride my own bike...a Harley V-Rod. This is one fast bike but I have not pushed it to its potential. I do want to live to see my grandchildren grow up.
Here I am 10,000 feet above sea level in Montana, beautiful country and plenty scary mountain roads. This is Beartooth Pass.
You have to take my work for it that this is me with Jason behind me on his Harley....curvy roads high in the mountains with no shoulders nor guard rails....yikes.
It's not a flattering look but I love my full face helmet because it keeps the wind out of my eyes and I feel safer with my jaw protected in case I meet the road. I especially love the chin section pulls up so I can take off my helmet without taking off my glasses.

Target Practice
Here is Jason and his .50 calibre muzzle loading rifle...look at that smoke!!
And here he is firing his .45 calibre pistol....
Here is Mario with his new toy, an A3 Bushmaster 5.56 mm rifle.
They are at the rifle range with a few of their toys, zeroing their weapons and trying to better their skills for deer hunting season. Mario looks like he could bring down a big animal with that thing. He'll probably want me to shoot the thing some time. Uhhh, I don't know if I can do it without crying.
