It's about continuing to race after a tragic loss. It rings with me because I quit racing maybe 17 times.

Just buy a REAL one, preferably power over ethernet ones. You can set them up so you can view them online also WITHOUT paying some monthly fee for cheesy cameras.

I have seen aurora borealis just once, many decades ago, when I lived in northern Illinois.
Coincidently, today is exactly 160 years since The Carrington Event.

Shooting the bull / Hurricane Dorian
« Last post by Biketographer on September 01, 2019, 03:41:00 pm »185 mph winds.... holy flying cows.
For many days the forecast was for the storm to come directly here to me in Clearwater, Florida. Looks like it is going to turn, I sure hope so.
I hope everyone stays safe and still has some shelter after this storm.
