I for one would rather you not stop with a December mini tour ;’-). I like all that you have written for us, so keep on going —
2 years agoAnother vote for the mini-tour. I think you need to prove you can do it all winter.
2 years agoThe religion I invented isn't really a religion, it's more of a little joke. It has no official status, no other members, no philosophy other than appreciating the outdoors, and the only ritual is to pee on the ground as often as possible. I think it is best explained on this page:

Thanks Nancy. I hope I don't run out of interesting things to show from MY Town.
2 years agoSo THAT's what a mudhen is. I thought it was just a made-up name for the Toledo baseball team.
2 years agoThanks Keith. And I'm still trying to think of my best and worst touring days for your forum topic. The big problem is that, in some way or another, EVERY touring day is the best.
2 years agoDon't worry, I'm okay and the finger didn't have to be amputated.
2 years agoTrue. Only three weeks ago, that area was a gorgeous mix of greens, yellows and reds. Soon, that trail will be filled with cross-country skiers.
2 years agoHey, I resemble that!
2 years agoOh, they could be Coots alright; I just didn’t think of them and they didn’t come up on the list of Minnesota ducks - since they’re not ducks, naturally. Surf scoters seemed unlikely to me too, although they apparently do pass through Minnesota on occasion.
2 years agoHi,
Are you from the west coast, you old COOT?
Cheers,
Keith
Hi,
Common coots, or mud hens as I’ve seen them called. Tell Scott there is no surf in Minnesota!
Cheers,
Keith
I can’t wait for your next mini-tour!
2 years agoOuch, what a nasty looking wound!

Bob,
2 years agoI appreciate the comment about proving I could do it all winter, and I'm pretty sure I could succeed. But I also have to consider honor and integrity. A pledge is a pledge, and back in June I pledged to finish out the year with mini-tours. I can't go back on my pledge now. That would make me look like a gosh-darned politician.
