The nice thing, for me atleast, about the ToD, is that it's fairly inexpensive. I mean, yes the drive does cost some gas, but the hotel is really cheap and then food. That's about it. I think I spent a little over $150 tops. Now granted I live closer than most and have a diesel engine, so I never needed gas the whole weekend. lol But even still, it's fairly inexpensive and yet really really fun!

And yes Al, I do drive around and hit some curves and go...geez, what was that? You call that a curve? lol The Dragon really has changed my view on roads. I just hope by doing it once doesn't lose it's thrill the second time around. I don't think so though.

Hey Al, if you get a chance, since you love dragons now and do such a nice job on logos, any chance you could come up with a tattoo design that's still feminine? I want a tattoo and I've always loved dragons and I loved the ToD and my NB so....it fits. Just need a nice looking one, and you do such great work!

Anywho...ToD needs to come sooner....like NOW!

We've done the Dragon several times and if anything, the thrill get's greater every time. Trust me when I say a repeat performance won't disappoint. Of course, then there's the friendship, the food, the.....and the list goes on.

On the subject of tattoos, Hmmmmm. You know, this old man may be tempted to get one more. All my tats are old skool with wizards and sorcerers so something dragon related wouldn't be out of place. Now toss in a nB and a 129. Think you're up to the task Al??

It just hit me. Curvy roads make me veeery nausious!
I guess I'm not going anymore



























JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!
There are motion sickness pills and breaks to keep the carsickness in control (heck! I am air- car- and seasick! and still I jump in a plane).
Best remedy though is to drive myself

Bcuz...
When I 1st joined almost 5 years ago I didn't give much thought to my username and never really liked it.
Jane really isn't my middle name. John (FineExampl) just started calling me AmyJane a long while back and then other people, like Miss Ellen (LnzBug) joined in, and I liked it because my mother's name was Mary Jane (she passed when I was almost 2). So it's a combo of my name and her name and I thought it was cool that he started calling me that without even knowing that fact And I've always been told that I'm alot like she was. So it's basically a nickname and it stuck
