Well I made it to NOLA without any problems  [bacon]. I actually got 25 mpg out of the Bluesmobile on the one tank  :o 
I am goin tommorow to check out the house, and I am planning to check out the Duc/Triumph/Vespa dealer this weekend (pictures to come).

Here are some more boring pics from the road. No sweet insect kills this time  :'(

Wow Cory, looks like a road, some sky, a bridge and a town. Good work! [clap] [laugh] OK, enough making fun. Even though I enjoyed the alone/down time last week when Jen and Colin were in NOLA seeing friends and family I still wished I could have been there. Such a cool town, with so much history and culture. Don't know about living there, either pre or post Katrina, but what an awesome place to visit!! I hope you find it a good place and enjoy your stay. Gotta love the cajun food, to me it's just awesome! Gonna suck not seeing you off Labor Day weekend but I'll catch you either in NOLA or if you come back to this dull, boring place called DFW. Really hope you enjoy the whole cajun thing. It will grow on you... big time. [thumbsup] Have fun bro'!

hey there little brother, glad you made it safe and sound! Good to see the bluesmobile getting pretty good gas milage, what a plus!  How was school?  None of my marine friends picked on you did they?  [laugh]  Enjoy!

Hey Cory, glad you made it O.K.  I've enjoyed your pix; nothing like a mondo road to trip to numb the brain, eh?  No pulvarized insects this time around is alright but whassup with the four star pelican warning sign as you enter the metal bridge?  I can only imagine... 

Duck and cover?   [evil]

Hope to see you at Ron's on Labor Day.

 8) There is a MC Club called Dirty South Ryderz that I became acquainted with a couple of years ago, and they are kinda at the opposite end of the spectrum from DFWM.  The title of your thread made me think of them and they helped produce this video which is pretty cool really.  If you hook up with a crowd like this in N.0. you would really stand out - BECAUSE YOU RIDE A DUCATI !!  [laugh]  What did you think I meant ?  ???

Mini-bikes, motorscooters, trail bikes, heavy cruisers, superbikes, three wheelers, whatever you got:
WE LOVE THEM BIKES!

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

School was good I got to learn about liquid oxygen, and liquid nitrogen...... that is some seriously cold shit. Liquid O2 boils at -297 deg  :o The Marines didn't pick on me but their barracks SUCK!

Cory - glad you are doing well!  I've been through that area a few times, and hung out there for a little while, once.......can't imagine living there - keep us updated! I really like the pix from the road.......I've spent soooooooooo many hours just driving - everywhere - and I think it is very calming.  Your pix remind me of my many road trips!!!! Can't get enough of those bridges!  I drove to FL for Thanksgiving last year and went over many long bridges.  I honestly could just stop on one and sit there for a while and be perfectly happy!  ;D

You sound like the complete oposite of Mindy (Alans Wife) she is like deathly afraid of bridges.

Here is a snapshot of my gps after all my travels. I love this thing btw it made the whole trip so easy a Marine could do it  ;)


I went to look at the house earlier. I really like it, the inside is VERY nice, and extremelly well taken care of. It's very roomy, and the best part is the 2 car garage. The owner has an old 65 Mustang in there right now under a cover from what I saw it is SWEEET. I hope he get's it out of there otherwise all the drool is gonna start eating through the paint  :P





The application is pending right now, I will hopefully be able to move in next week.
