What's with you guys and these girly dogs?

Also... I live with my wife and two daughters... which bit of that says I would get a choice in the matter? :)

Yes, I most definitely did the Dugway in the Porsche.

BTW, the drive on Rt. 95 north of there through the Glen Canyon Recreational Area was beautiful (red rock walls on both sides of the road). I will also add that even further north 95 is flat, smooth, straight, with no vegetation (i.e., clear sight lines). If one is so inclined, you can truly open up a high performance road going vehicle. Not that I'm necessarily suggesting one does so. ;)
Drooling over the car... one day I tell ta! One day I will have one.

Two of my mates just bought Caymans... they are nice! But not at all practical with kids or for lugging stuff to the dump...

I figured that may be the case. ;)
Just thinking of the chavs we have in the UK who walk around with pit bulls so that they look tough.
Hahaha...understood, we have those sorts down this way too. We call them bogans.

Two things though:
1. I'm far too old, well dressed and intelligent to fit that stereotype.
2. The dog's a Bullmastiff x Cane Corso.

My younger brother's the bogan with the pitbulls. :p

I didn't realise that you are an Aussie. I thought you was from the US for some reason.

You'll be ****ing worried when I get my chav brother and his pitbull to come after you. ;)
Lol. My wife is an RSPCA Inspector. She's used to dealing with both chavs and pitbulls. I'll hide behind her and her assortment of weaponry.

As someone who also lives with a wife and two teenage daughters I completely understand. Couldn't imagine it being any other way now. :)

Regarding the car, keep your eyes on the prize and you'll find a way. It helps having patience and having your family needing a little less of your time as they get older.

With all the puppy pix on here , time to turn this thing into a dog and pony show ....

Pinto.jpg


There was a herd of these roaming along the road to Chaco Canyon yesterday. Stopped to look at them ( usually the only horses I see have a cop on them or are costing me money at the track) and this one seemed to be less wary of the car than the others . Don't know if they're wild or belong to someone . No houses or fences around so guess it could be either way .

Nice. You heading on any more trips soon?

Funny you should ask AFB.

I just returned from another safari in Africa. Last time was Zambia. This time I was in Tanzania for Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. It was amazing… better than Zambia.

This summer, I'm off to Lake Clark Alaska to photograph their Coastal Brown (Grizzly) Bears. One week with bears in the wild (hopefully with spring cubs).

It's like I'm looking into a future mirror. Nice to meet another follically challenged gentleman. :D
[doublepost=1464962814][/doublepost]Gotta be honest though...my selfy is heaps better than yours. :p
I'm the ghost of The Bad Guy future.

I concede that your selfie is better but then mine isn't a selfie. Mrs MacRy took it.....I refer you to my previous comment regarding her arsenal.

I said arsenal!

Got it! Tasmania is not really Australia...

I'll carry your bag if you like! Hope you get some cubs.
