Well, I just had to look up the Rio video. Yes, it a good one and I think I do remember the song. I did a little further Duran Duran research and found they did a couple other songs that I either didn't realize was them, or else had forgotten. I definitely remember "Hungry Like the Wolf." I guess I wasn't listening to the radio or watching MTV all that much in the 1980's. I was probably still stuck in the 70's.
2 years agoJust listened to the Moldy Peaches, thus the song you're referring too, Ha Ha
2 years agoSurely you've heard Rio(one of the classic videos of all time), Ordinary World, Planet Earth? Maybe you were born 15 years too early, my wife had a crush on the lead singer with posters all over her bedroom. BTW what is the song that refers to them?
PS I'll have to be more attentive as I'm only discovering your tours way after they've finished.
So true. I had forgotten how good they are.
2 years agoGreat job with your route planning, and even better job with the "albeit." It's a fine word, albeit an oft forgotten word.
2 years agoCemeteries can be very interesting. I particularly like these tiny rural roadside cemeteries.
2 years agoThanks for posting this route. I looked at a route from Minneapolis to Milwaukee, taking advantage of the paths out of Minneapolis, the Sparta Trail, and then into Madison and trails to Milwaukee. Your journey on this route aligns with the route I had from Hastings to Frontenac, albeit without the detour to the Casino.
PS - This comment seems so much more official using the word 'albeit'
So yummy! One of my favorite snacks.
2 years agoYikes! A PUD! (pointless up and down) We hate these as that uphill looks like a walker for sure.
2 years agoHey - a cemetery! We'd be up there in a heart beat checking out the monuments.
2 years agoI guess ideally I should just say “ayup”. But the real answer is that there’s fewer and fewer of what I’ll call “classic Vermonters” left. But I do know a couple.
2 years ago"ShoLoDiF." I love it. I might have to steal your term for future posts.
2 years agoI got lucky on that one. Ha ha. And I do know about the legendary jaws of a snapping turtle. I kept my distance.
2 years agoI looked back at your journals in which you rode through this area. I've read them before but, honestly, I photographed the same things as you did without remembering that you did. But yeah, next time you get down here, check out that huge Red Wing work boot.
