    Re: TOE: references in pop culture

    Hi Sally,

    Life is one big gigantic roller coaster, with more dips and turns, breath taking drops and dizzing heights than any ride at an amusement park. Instead of being worried, depressed, or afraid, I suggest you stick your hands in the air, scream as loud as you can, and enjoy the ride of your life.
    I love roller coasters, what about you.
    I'm a little crazy, but I wait just to sit in the front seat!

    It only feels like that at first MJA, then it winds down to boring. I hate roller coaters, btw! lol! Boring because there's nothing to do with it.

    Re: TOE: references in pop culture

    I'm not complaining, I like my easy life. The funny part is that I thought financial freedom would bring a lot of money when in fact it means to be free of those worries. I have enough of everything, not too much or too little, it brought me into a balance. Unfortunately, you are off a bit with your perception of me. I didn't say I hate boring, I hated that ride. I like boring, boring is good. In fact my husband and I just kick it all day long and we do what we like, which is each other and dollar stores! lol! Now excuse me for a few, my husband wants me to rub him.

    Mustang Ride

    Decided to go for a last of the fall bike ride around Reno this morning. I got on my Lemond road bike that I named Silver and down the road I went. After a short ride down the Truckee River trail that winds west to east through the Truckee meadow that Reno is built on, I headed to Hidden valley which is a nice suburb along the east side of the meadow. I then turned south along the foot of the mountain range that Virginia City home of the Comstock Lode sits on some twenty or thirty miles away. The Truckee River connects Lake Tahoe which sits on top of the Sierra range just west of town to Pyramid Lake, the last of an inland sea owned now by the Piute Indian tribe. Between the two mountain ranges sits the Truckee meadow, a natural flood plain that is quickly being swallowed up by development. The last of the wetlands is called South Meadows and that is where I rode. Developers have taken thousands of acres of this wetland and stripped it and drained it to make room for more houses. Because of the poor housing market, construction has almost stopped, which makes for car free riding on new roads through a barren denatured waste land.
    I came across a couple of construction guys and stopped to say hello. I asked them if they saw it as progress. The one man said he had lived here all his life and said it was wrong, but it pays the rent. I told him that I moved to Reno to make a living too, but added I was looking for a place like Walden’s Pond. He said that I won’t find it here anymore. I went on my way thinking I was as much apart of this development as the guys with the shovels. A little while latter I turned a corner and much to my surprise were five wild mustangs. Standing and eating some wild grass that had yet to be destroyed by us. I stopped and was amazed by the surrealness of it all. The horses were standing on an asphalt road that had yet to have homes and fences on it. There was a jet plane that had just taken off above their heads. To their left and about a mile or two away was the freeway which could be plainly heard from where we stood. Behind them, and to the north of Reno was a brown band of smog, we haven’t had much wind lately.
    I left them alone and headed back home so as to get ready for work. I could only think that those horses days in the once beautiful wild Truckee Meadow where about gone, but how lucky I was to have seen perhaps the end.

    Re: TOE: references in pop culture

    Hi MJA;

    You live downhill from my favorite spot Lake Tahoe.
    It's been years since I've been there. Do you know is it still pristine. The air was like nothing I breathed before. It being high in the mountains the air was always clear. I don't know if you can bike it up there, I know with my heart I'd die if I tried.

    Reno is nice but Tahoe is heaven.

    Best to you,

    Pat

    Hi MJA,

    Thanks for thinking up my friend for me! After reading your post I remembered I haven't heard from her and I saw her this morning at the UDF! She's looks great and got back with her husband. I forgot he doesn't have fingers and I shook his knuckle! lol!
