[@jimb5113]

I just remembered what I did for our bikes on our rack that is like yours. I used chain and screw together quick links. I wrapped one end around seat post and a quick link. The other end of chain was around handlebar shaft and another quick link there. Then when I pulled the keeper down firm against the chain it was all pulled tight. neighbor across the street made a motorcycle cover by using some kind of glue instead of trying to sew stitch seams. Worked for him. Hope that foot is doing gooder now and that "old cow bell" is not getting wornout. 😃

[@gonagain]

Linda is being nice and not using the cowbell. When we were sailing, I used to use contact cement to hold a patch on a sail in place while I stitched around the edges. Then I noticed that the contact cement never let go and I gave up on the stitching after that. I wonder if your neighbor was using some sort of contact cement?

[@jimb5113]

Light may have been on a dog collar. My son and his wife purchased red LED lights that attach to their dogs collars when they're camping and out after dark. Their lights are very similar to what you found. The rough roads may have been too much for a first time bike rider. I have seen the video of Linda's misfortune and I know she is in good hands and healing quickly. It won't be long and you'll be back out exploring again! An just a reminder from that great orator we all know and love as Yogi Berra: "when you get to the fork in the road,TAKE IT" be safe and let Linda know we're still prayin her up to make a full recovery!

[@jwagnermail]

The LED might also have been from a bike, I have a similar sized LED that goes into the spokes of my bike.

[@gonagain]

Funny story....while walking back to our vehicle after a long days hunt, I spotted a fork (the utensil) laying in the road. At a fork ( the Y) in the road. So I call out to Rick that there's a fork in the road and I was going to take it. Which one, he wanted to know, right or left? This comedic exchange went on for awhile until he saw the fork in the fork in the road. I still have that fork somewhere...

I'll say it can freak you out! We camped at Tuttle Creek Campground near Lone Pine last fall. We got there at dusk and after dinner we came outside and it was so incredibly dark that we could barely see our own feet. Looking up, the sky was awash in stars. The next morning I came out to sweeping desert vistas of both Mt. Whitney and miles and miles of open land all the way to Owens Lake. It was overwhelming to try to take in so much of God's creation at once. We felt incredibly small.

Brings back memories. Back in the 80's I was the flying service tech out of the Phoenix area. Flying out of Falcon Field in Mesa AZ I would visit places like Kayenta, Kingman and Bull Head City.

Hello John, technology has come far enough these days that we now have the Garmin InReach in case we end up getting hurt or lost. Cheap satellite communication, compared to what it was before.

I'd like to know more about charging ebikes while camping, We're in Clark Fork Idaho and want to go South in March For some trail time

[@gonagain]

Hello James, the safest way to charge an ebike battery, so as not to damage it, is to use the AC charger that came with the bike and just plug it in to a suitable sized power station (1000WH+). That being said, there is a way to charge that battery directly from a solar panel by using a voltage adjustable MPPT controller, available on Amazon for around $50. You'll need to do some research on KZbin to see how to do that. Look up "Charging an ebike from solar"

I don't know if you know the story about the burros. They are not indigenous to the region. They are from miners that died and/or lost them while mining. The burros got away from them or the miners died and the burro went free and in doing so, they ended up breading and now there are herds of them all over. I've seen them in Nevada, Arizona and in Utah when I was in that area. Wild horse is the same situation and you can find large herds of those too. They look tame but stay away as they certainly are not and it could be dangerous to approach them. You spoke of silver mines, those are mostly further north although there were a few in southern Nevada so possibly Arizona too. Montana had/has a lot of silver mines. I went in a few silver mines in the Polaris Montana area. I found Peacock Ore in a mine in Polaris Montana. It is a beautiful ore. Peacock Ore is the common name for the mineral Chalcopyrite, particularly when the surface has tarnished or oxidized to display beautiful iridescent colors. It is a rainbow of colors and very pretty. I still have a chunk of it on my window sill that I collected there. It came out of a spur of the Polaris Mine which was a gold mine.

[@1954shadow]

Some time ago, I live on a corner lot, at the bottom of my street, and one day, we had a frog strangler of a summer storm in the afternoon. I am looking out my front door, watching a small river flow down the curbed street, when I see a youngster’s tennis shoe, floating down like a little boat and to add the odd part to it, in the sole of the shoe, it had red and green LED lights and they were flashing, so I watched this little boat go past my house, turn out onto the next street and float all the way down the next street, still flashing until it was out of sight.
