Great, another Spawn ride report where we get a few installments and then get left hanging. :roll:

I reflected on it all and realized that I had been overly harsh on her. After all, she was clearly traumatized by the people at the FJR meet that she attended. I'm sure she just wants to forget that it happened. I feel the same way about my first marriage. Heal up, Spawn! We aren't all like those you met out west :)

I hope she's being lenient on those papers for the folks who didn't finish them.

Just a few more days left to get submission in. All the ones I've received have been added to the voting page.

There are still plenty of photos in this thread that haven't been submitted.

THANK YOU! I swore I saw a November 18th date somewhere. Had me worried because I actually had some decent pics to enter this time.

I got squat for this year but here it goes anyway.

There is a picture in this Abbeville SC church originally built in the 1800s. I just need to get rid of a few signs, a tree or two and a mirror. Then I need to get there when the light is right and there are no cars around. If all that happened and the aspect ratio of the calendar changed.........

Sometimes a pic says it all but sometimes it doesn't say much about how good a day really is. If you haven't ridden by the Hiwassee Meeting Hall, you've missed a good road, on the way to one of the greats.

Well, although you are throwing shit on me...we are buddies and no thread shit occurred. I was on topic in the thread that I posted in. I can't help it if you failed to navigate to the proper thread. lol

But in the interest of calming down the blood pressure of those in PA reading this, I did admit to what I did and why I did it. But thanks for the dogpile lol!

EDIT: I could use some orange creamsickle right about now...and I may have blown my chance at receiving some. :lol:
