If you can vote on killboy... there's more than just HJ and Daisy to vote on! LMAO I think they just highlight, without the votes.

The older couple? With the guy wearing headphones or whatever they were? LOL
No... I think he was on the tail earlier in the day. He shows up on all the pictures from the different sites. Always before our group. Too bad we didn't see and grab him before our run!

Yeah, the one Killboy highlighted was the couple with the headphones or whatever they are! There's also another reflex silver on there that isn't Probie. On the us129photos.com site, do you actually get anything if HJ wins the votes?

Thinking of Probie, Michelle, just out of curiosity, where did Probie's name come from? Mom was curious if it was some character from NCIS.

Probie actually came from the TV Show "Rescue Me" with Denis Leary. It was a nickname that was given to me by a veterinarian that I worked with. We both watched the show and since I was the new kid, I got the name. So I passed it to him because he's the new kid and a "new" beetle And I'm "new" to the TDI engine, so to me Probie is like everything new.

We discovered some beautiful country on this trip. Looking forward to the next one. Do the folks in the 2nd photo look like they are enjoying themselves? They nearly had to roll me out.

Ya know... I'm sad it was only one day. I wish we could do it every weekend. But if we did... would we appreciate it as much? After getting home from another 12 hr shift and seeing more pics I want to say "SCREW IT... lets do it again!". But I know it won't be for another year. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, I guess.

Hey Al, we need to do something local a little more often... ya think.

When ya'll post pics, do you usually have to resize them or can you post them just how they upload from the camera? I've uploaded them all but I haven't gotten to the posting part yet. I'm going to try to do that this weekend, between a spaghetti dinner, usual household stuff, and a long rehearsal on Sunday. Why can't we go back to the GTG again? That was a nice big dose of avoiding real life!

A week ago today is when most of us left for Bryson City. I am wearing my ToD dragon shirt to work today to honor that. *sigh* You are correct, it was a nice big dose of avoiding real life!!

I think they need to be no larger than 770 X 770 resolution.
