I thought when I talked to you on Friday, you'd just come from a low-level pass in Wells.

Haha! Well, the rule book said I need 'roof rails' to tech for 200, so I added them and painted them! lol!t

Your MaMa can accept tattoos but not that hair cut...........

Better wait for several months before You see her.

You just need to hope her birthday is more than several months away.

Mom to son, "Why did you cut all your hair off?"

Well, or at least something that rymes with pluck, huh? ;-)

When we arrived at the Rainbow, I was out sorting gear to take into the room and putting it on the baggage cart.  My dad arrived, and he and Kate were having trouble pushing the overladen cart through the doors at the hotel.

My dad mentioned that some very nice gentleman with a weird red Mohawk graciously held the door for them, and offered to help.

Didn't take long for me to put two and two together on that one.

Buddy, I've no doubt your mother is very proud of you.

It's not what's on top of your head - it's what's below the surface.

Thanks, Buddy!  :cheers:

Wow Chris, I had no idea they were your parents- glad I could help if only a little bit!

Freud, you had a weird red Mohawk too? Lol!

Don't pay any attention to folks that don't like the cut... I have seen the pic of Freud with a Mohawk... his was about 5 or 6 inches tall... he was about your age.... following in his footsteps... you could do worse  :-D
 :cheers: see you at WoS
