Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
Henry, That's how to live life. Just the dog and you. We sure don't have that scenery on the east coast. I still say the west is the best. Just beautiful... Ken

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
I learned from my long time law partner who tried climbing every tall mountain, including Everest, but rarely made it to the top, "You can't really know what you can do until you push yourself far enough to find out what you can't do."

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
We even tried that for a while. Tried Ven, Venir aquν, venga aquν, and even venir aqui ahora for some time. Made no difference. He has learned sit, stay, shake, roll over, play dead, stand up; and especially goin' out. That's his favorite. But any sort of come or here Pepe, here - no way.

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
Why are your pictures so big in your posts?

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
Henry puts his pictures on a photo website (PhotoBucket or similar.) Then, instead of uploading a photo to the FordBarn server where it will show in the post as a "thumbnail," he enters the address of where he posted it. FordBarn, then, gets the full photo from that address. No thumbnail. A little bit more work on his part, but no work required from you. Also, he can post larger photos than FordBarn will handle.

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
That was a great adventure Old Henry. I would love to have been along with you but then that would have spoiled your "quiet time" with Pepe.

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone

The one draw back to not uploading my image to this forum is that once in a while an image on PhotoBucket gets corrupted which shows on this forum and I have to upload a new pure image to PhotoBucket then put the new address for that new image in my post in place of the old one on this forum so that the new image will show instead of the corrupted one. It may sound kinda complicated but once you've done it a couple of times it's pretty automatic, just like most things. Maybe that isn't really answering the original question that wasn't really "how" do I get them so big but, really, "why"? It's like the wolf said to Little Red Riding Hood, "The better to see them with, my dear." or something to that effect.

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
Never forget, Lawson, that it was your write up of your trip to Pike's Peak in the V8 Times that inspired me to do the same and more after that. Can't thank you enough for that inspiration. And, I love doing road trips with someone else that loves them as much or more than just by myself. It's just kinda hard to find people like that. Right now my very favorite passenger is 93 year old Betsy Williams that went to Death Valley with us. She's in an assisted living center now and I know I can call her anytime to take her for a ride and she is rarin' to go. She loves it more than anyone else I know (even my wife, dad who bought the car 53 years ago, and/or Pepe).

Re: One Man, One Dog, One Car to Yellowstone
Gotta love driving these old Fords, I'm heading down to Georga next month. I guess a lot of the 47's are still running! We drove the Lincoln Hiway thru PA in 2009, and this summer went on the new england tour, great time.
