Title: Cam Comes to Cross Junction [NGC]
Post by: Bill Hagan on November 05, 2015, 08:24:22 AM

So, Cam Lay, still in a bit of a recovery mode from his collision in Montana with mountain mutton-on-the-hoof back in July -- see http://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=77881.0 -- came back east for some work, play, and family obligations.

We were close enough to one of those activities to be honored with a visit.  Here are a few pics of Cam's two days at Cross Junction.  If I am lucky, this post will drop off the first few pages before Cam ever sees it.   :wink:


Virginia, Montana, and South Carolina flags herald Cam's arrival.

With an after-dark ETA, I light the lamps to ensure Cam sees gate.

But, without meeting local LEO's, Cam shows up well before dark.  I think he IS smiling.   :laugh:

And shows us how spry he is by giving us a tour of our place with a biologist's eye.   :bow:  Amazing how much we had never "seen."

Kathi takes notes -- while eating her glove!   :rolleyes:

The persimmons are (almost) ripe.   :shocked:

But now it is time to eat, drink, & be merry.

Nothing but the finest (NASCAR) cuvee for a Montana guest.   :wink:

Actually, that "3" wasn't the swill we feared, but real red stuff called for real red wet stuff.

Followed by a pyromania demo!

Cam complained about being cold, so Kathi went to work.

She wears the Navy pants to annoy me; it works!   :sad:

Hard to believe Cam lives in Montana, as he added this to his bedroom!   :rolleyes:

And -- seriously -- this.

But, he finally got warm.  :wink:

The next day, he helped with a rain-barrel project.

Then, with some warnings from distaff management.  :thewife:

We set off to town and the Union Jack Tavern.  For some reason, no pix after this.   :boozing:

Cam left the next day for South Carolina.  And, all kidding aside, he is still "thinking" about returning to the two-wheeled world.  After hearing even more details about his "life flight" event, it gives me pause about it all, too. 

OTOH, no bighorn sheep in Virginia.    :bike-037:

Thanks for staying with us, Cam.
