Those fun lovin’ Maule Brothers are at it again. Posting Not One, Not Two, But Three recent flights taken in their yellow Maule.
The scenery is fantastic, and the photos they took prove it. It made me thirsty just looking at ‘em. Particularly that last trip.
Sigh…If I sell my house…
I Took some photos of airplanes.
Will the maddness ever end?
Put them up in the new gallery.
Here is a taste:
With a lot of straight stretches.
Me and my buddy Scott took the bikes out yesterday. Around 180 miles out and back. Great weather and some good roads, what more could a guy ask for? We got a late start due to scheduling issues, but that worked out fine, as there were less folks pulling boats on the road to get in our way.
Naturally, since he is on a fine example of British Engineering, our first stop was to pick up some oil for his gear box.
Once we got on the road, we made good time up Hwy 9. I’ll spare you photos of long stretches full of endless lines of automobiles and just give you this one of me trying to get Scott in the rearview. As you can see, I missed horribly.
Undaunted by failure, I let Scott take the lead and managed to take a couple of good shots of the road just as it started to get interesting north of Arlington.
Naturally this is when Scott had to stop and check his fuel petcock, as it had somehow stopped allowing fuel to get to the engine.
Back on the road, we made it to Concrete Wa, ( They used to make concrete) and gassed up.
Alas, the drive-in was closed and for sale.
Feeling the need for my own re-fueling, we stopped at The Slowest Pizza Ever. Really, it took them 30 minutes to get my 8” pizza to me. I shoulda called Dominos.
Then back on the road at a nice leisurely pace where I once again failed to get Scott in the rearview.
I finally had to settle for a self portrait
It was a very nice ride with Great scenery and a fun road that wasn’t too taxing.
Here is the only shot I took that I actually like:
