Classy and stress-free!Reviewed on 2/29/2012 Courtney S
Booking with Rick Reuther's Music Host Entertainment was the easiest part of our wedding planning process. Our DJ, Andrew Round, was easy to reach, flexible about meeting times, laid back, yet professional. After our initial meeting, I had total confidence that he would do an amazing job. My husband, Nick, and I decided to go with the Jazz Trio for cocktail hour and dinner, then DJ after dinner. The day of our wedding, Andrew was amazing. He had a presence that could only be described as classy. He looked as good as the wedding party in his tux! He had every detail taken care of; it was clear he knew what he was doing and he was so familiar with the venue and staff that everything was coordinated seamlessly. Every once in a while, he would check in with us to let us know what was coming up next and gave us time to finish up our mingling before we were needed to cut the cake or come up for our first dance, etc. He did so in a relaxed and well-paced manner. Never did it feel like things were dragging along or rushed. The trio was WONDERFUL. I could have listened to them all night! Everyone commented on what a nice touch it brought to the after-ceremony ambiance. They played beautifully and it was perfect for cocktails and dinner. Not too soft, not too harsh. Got people's attention but didn't overpower conversations at the tables. Andrew did a FABULOUS job playing fun music, appealing to different ages and genres. He really kept things lively. Nick and I had established a "No Play" list. No chicken dance, no Macarena, no Grease, etc. We also had a couple artists that we asked not be played. He respected our wishes and did so respectfully! Weeks after our weeding, we were out with friends. When a friend told us that he kept asking our DJ to play (banned artist), Andrew respectfully declined and explained our preferences in a way that was polite but firm, and with a smile. Rather than getting annoyed by his declined request, our friend was impressed with the way Andrew handled the situation. Enough so, that he wanted to make sure that he mentioned it to us! DO NOT GAMBLE WITH ANYONE ELSE in GR; Rick Reuther's does a great job and you will not be disappointed. Ask for Andrew - he's the consummate professional!

We used Music Host Entertainment for our DJ at our wedding this past Friday. Joel, was absolutely AMAZING! He went above and beyond any expectations we had, our guests were dancing ALL night long!!!
AMAZING! Stop looking and book them now!Reviewed on 6/19/2012 Betsy R
Can not say enough good things about this DJ company. Great to work with and went above and beyond a normal DJ's job. Made the whole night run smoothly. You WILL NOT REGRET booking them!
Hands Down Best DJ EverReviewed on 4/26/2015 Kelly K
Hiring Rick Reuther's Music Host Entertainment was one of the easiest decisions we made for our wedding. Our DJ, Andrew Rounds, was at a tasting event we went to for our caterer and unlike many of the other DJs we had talked to, he wasn't pushy. His professionalism was clear from the start. When we called Rick, we asked for Andrew by name and boy, are we glad we did! Andrew was great over the phone and via email before the wedding. On our wedding day, he arrived early and was dressed in a tux (so classy and professional!). He was a total pro! He worked with our other vendors to make sure everything was organized and everyone was ready to go. He helped direct our wedding party so we didn't look like fools during our entrance, pointed our guests to all the highlights around the venue, and played the best music all night long. Our dance floor was perpetually packed and Andrew did a great job of feeling out the crowd. I never felt like there were too many fast or slow songs in a row. And, we totally had a dance battle between the bridesmaids and groomsmen which was HYSTERICAL. Andrew was the best dance battle MC and got all our guests into it. To finish off the night, he played "Piano Man" by Billy Joel and our guests circled around my husband and I while we slow danced. Our guests sang at the top of their lungs while swaying side-by-side and it was the coolest moment. Best.DJ.Ever.
They will go above and beyond to make your day flawlessReviewed on 11/24/2014 Kristen S
My husband and I were married in June and had the most beautiful, fun, and hassle-free reception- much of which we owe to the wonderful people at Music Host. Our DJ, David, was truly amazing-can't thank him enough for giving us such awesome memories! For all the brides-to-be spending countless hours researching different vendors (trust me, I was there!), choosing Music Host will be the best decision you'll make. I was very particular about who we selected for a DJ and I had contacted several companies to 'shop around' and make sure I found the right one for us. I knew from the first time I talked to Rick (the owner) that I'd found the right one. Our experience with Music Host was a little unique in that the DJ that was originally scheduled to do our wedding, Kurt, was unable to be there due to a sudden, tragic death in his family the day before the wedding. My mom, sister and I had met with Kurt a few weeks prior to the wedding to discuss the music selection and timing of the evening. He is such a personable, kind, and professional guy and I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders after meeting with him because I knew he would take care of everything. The night before the wedding Rick called us to tell us about Kurt's devastating loss and our hearts went out to him and his family. There was never a moment of panic or uncertainty, Rick assured us that Music Host always leaves one of their DJ's unscheduled each weekend in the event that something like this happens. David, our replacement DJ, called me the night before the wedding to discuss all the particulars, which Kurt had already meticulously organized and prepared. The reception was perfect and David kept the evening flowing with ease. Music Host is a professional, experienced company that will go above and beyond to make sure your reception is flawless. Can't thank these guys enough
Joel is your guy!Reviewed on 11/11/2014 Ashlie D
We chose Rick Reuthers music host entertainment for our wedding because we knew we wanted the best of the best. A trusted, well known company with many years experience was just what we were looking for. We were blessed with Joel for our DJ. What an amazing DJ he was! We met with Joel prior to our wedding and he seemed to know exactly what we were looking for. We didn't even make a play list we just went over a few basics and Joel took it from there. Needless to say our wedding was AMAZING and I contribute a great deal of that to the music. The music was great, the dance floor was PACKED all night and everyone is still talking about how much fun they had and how great our DJ was. Joel is a professional. He adjusts to the crowd to keep the floor full. We couldn't be any happier with the service we were provided and we will certainly be referring Joel/ music host to all future brides/grooms. Thanks again Joel!:)
wonderful jobReviewed on 10/28/2014
We wanted to let you know we enjoyed planning our daughter's wedding with your business. The DJ services provided for our barn wedding reception, July 12, 2014 by David White were fantastic! His communication to us behind the scene and announcing the events of the evening were very professional. The music was a huge hit! The appetizer/ dinner hour was relaxed according to plan. He was then able to engage all our guest creating an energetic atmosphere. The dance floor was filled for 2 plus hours with the volume maintianed at a level that others could still enjoy visiting. He did a great mix of country and pop. Several commented that his services were the best they had experienced. Thanks so much for helping us bless our children and guests with a memorable evening.
Wonderful Service!Reviewed on 10/23/2014 Alexa L
I booked Music Host Entertainment for my wedding this past August. My brother had them as their DJ for their wedding back in 2011 and they did a great job back then. From the very first conversation I had with my DJ, Jeff Schroeder, I was impressed! He was incredibly professional, personable, funny, and very thorough! I had a hard time picking songs for the special events of the night and he was quick to throw out some great suggestions for me. He came to our meeting well prepared and covered things I hadn't even thought of, like what attire I would prefer him to wear the night of the wedding. At my reception, we had a pretty strict time frame because it was Friday night wedding, and I didn't want things to go too late. The bridal party ended up arriving late but Jeff was so great at speeding things up and keeping us going through the toasts, cake cutting, and first dances without it feeling too rushed. Everything ended up falling in on time! Jeff was great at song choices and timing throughout the night. He could really get a feel for when the guests didn't like a song and knew when to move on to something else. Overall, Jeff and Music Host Entertainment were incredible. I am a firm believer that the DJ will make or break your reception and I have no regrets choosing Music Host Entertainment for my big day! I will recommend them to every future bride I know!
Great MC/DJ Service!Reviewed on 10/22/2014 Alisa C
Our wedding went off without a hitch in large part due to our MC and DJ Jeff Schroeder from Music Host Entertainment. I would highly recommend him as he is professional, personal and a pleasure to work with. He did everything just as we wished. I couldn't have asked for a better service or experience. Thanks Jeff!
Smoothly orchestrated and very thoughtful :)Reviewed on 10/21/2014
We had the honor of initially meeting DJ Joel at my now husband's brother's wedding the year before we got married. At their wedding and ours, he did a wonderful job of presenting and orchestrating the night. In our talks prior to our wedding, we were very impressed by the level of thought he put in to song choices for certain dances and the order in which to play them to keep the party going. Moreover, we were very pleased at how easily Joel coordinated with our other vendors, in particular the live band that played during cocktail hour and dinner :).
WeddingReviewed on 10/20/2014 Olivia V
Our wedding was nicely done and Jeff did a nice job as our disc jockey. He did exactly what we wanted as an introduction and kept the night moving right along as we wanted to. He was very responsive and reliable during the pre-wedding meetings and answered any questions we had going into the big day. Overall it was a good experience for us both.
No Worries with Music HostReviewed on 10/12/2014 Becky F
Your reception is in great hands with these guys. We would especially recommend our DJ, Joel, who did a phenomenal job with the pacing and organization of the reception. Joel asked for our input on certain important aspects (e.g. "Would you like to transition to the first dance now or give it a few more minutes?") and took care of the rest in a very positive, professional way. Everyone had a great time, requests were played, and Joel kept the music coming.
Awesome experience!Reviewed on 10/11/2014 Liz K
Our DJ, Joel, was amazing! Very organized, and seemed to be very flexible. Extremely knowledgeable with many different genres of music, and was able to play everything we were hoping for! Our guests LOVED the music - the whole night! Also, he was very professional not only at meetings, but also at the reception. I am 110% pleased with our experience! I know many others who used Music Host Entertainment who also had amazing experiences. I would recommend them to anyone!
If you want a classy wedding, look no further.Reviewed on 10/10/2014 Melissa L
I could not be more pleased with the music at our wedding and owe it all to Kurt! He did an amazing job with the flow of the reception and kept our dance floor packed ALL night. Our guests didn't want to leave! We received, and continue to receive compliments on how wonderful and CLASSY it was. Perfect for my "simple, classic elegance" theme. Absolutely loved the Jazz Trio for my cocktail hour and dinner-it made the room feel like I was in a dream. One of my favorite memories is of my mom singing a song with the Trio and my sister singing our fist dance song. Kurt even gave us a CD of the songs at the end of the night to add a personal touch. I can't say enough good things and how glad I am that I chose them for our special day!
Great company!Reviewed on 10/10/2014 Melinda P
Very professional! Our DJ, David White was awesome. Very accomodating, funny, and was a great emcee for the evening. Wedding music can be hit or miss, but David really made our special day unforgettable! Thanks David!
Wow, wow, wow!Reviewed on 10/09/2014 Lauren B
What a wonderful company to work with. Very professional. We worked with Andrew who did a great job and was really patient with us. Highly recommended from a someone who appreciates good quality and great service!
Andrew was fantastic!Reviewed on 10/07/2014 Ashley C
I was very impressed with Andrew and VERY glad we went with him! He was great about checking in just the right amount of times and made sure that we were having fun! We even had a bride from another wedding at the B.O.B. walk through the dance floor on our mother/son father/daughter dance and blame him for the mic coming in downstairs....he handled the situation exactly how I would have wanted, by staying calm and collected...especially since it wasn't his fault. My husband and I asked for song requests on our RSVP cards so we had a rough playlist for the night, but Andrew still took requests that night (and paid attention to our do not play list). Everyone raved about the music! I would definitely recommend to others!! Thanks, Andrew!
Professional and fun!Reviewed on 9/17/2014
I used Andrew Rounds for our DJ and he was so great to work with and knew exactly what we wanted for our wedding music he was also a lot of fun for our wedding guests as well. We also used Rick Reuther and the quartet which was SUCH a great idea for cocktail hour and beginning of reception they were awesome and so much fun! Great music in all!
Danced All Night!Reviewed on 9/11/2014 Abbey G
This company was great to work with! Joel was appointed to our wedding and he was fantastic! Could not have asked for a better DJ! He knew exactly what to do and when. He really puts you at ease and really is the narrator of the whole night. Between myself, the photographer and our DJ, we were in constant communication as to when each piece of the night would happen and it all fell into place. Our guests danced all night long and we received tons of reviews from these guests as to how our DJ really knew what kind of music to play. He knew how to read the crowd to see what was keeping people on the dance floor. Joel was great to work with and I could not have asked for a better DJ and "captain" that night. He kept everything going.
Outstanding DJReviewed on 9/10/2014 Katie T
Right from the start, our DJ, Joel, was incredibly professional and understanding. He was quick to respond to emails and set up meetings to get to know us and what we wanted. He was never pushy and provided examples of what would work well for us. We told Joel we wanted everyone to be out on the dance floor the whole night and that's exactly what we got. He played a variety of music that encouraged everyone to dance. He did an outstanding job of controlling the night and making sure everything ran smoothly. I would definitely recommend Joel as a DJ for anyone's wedding!
Best DJ EverReviewed on 7/12/2014 Karen S
I used Music Host Entertainment at my wedding and could not be happier with my decision. I found the company through a recommendation and am so glad I did. Jeff was my DJ and he did a fabulous job! We met together several weeks before the wedding for well over an hour to plan out every tiny detail. Jeff did the music for my ceremony and reception. Everything from the songs switching depending who was walking down the aisle to announcing introducing the bridal party and speeches went off without a hitch! They really do run all the major events so you can enjoy your night and not have to worry about timing. I prepared a song list and Jeff stuck to it super well, some guests requested songs, but he made sure he had a "do not play list" from me to make sure the few requests he did allow were okay. My friends who are engaged asked who our DJ was at the wedding because they liked him so much. We also had people comment that the music wasn't too loud, apparently at other wedding they had been to the music was so loud that you couldn't talk and it really turned people off. The music was the perfect volume, he stuck to our song list, and he ran the whole event from start to finish. If you book music host entertainment you won't regret it!!!
Talented, Experienced and ProfessionalReviewed on 7/11/2014 Kristin S
Music Host Entertainment was recommended to me by event manager at my venue. She had told me there was no other DJ company that she referred clients to. After experiencing the service firsthand, I totally understand why. Andrew was the DJ at my wedding. He contacted me several weeks before the wedding day with a detailed and comprehensive list of the information he needed from us, then arranged a meeting at a time/location that was convenient for us to discuss our ideas. He was organized and the meeting went quickly. He was in touch again the week before the wedding to make sure our plans were still the same and to see if we had any questions. From that point, he coordinated with the venue and needed no further assistance from me. Andrew was dressed in a black tux and looked very polished. He was in communication with us throughout the night with updates on timing so we were never caught off guard. We were most impressed by his ability to read the crowd and play music that best suited those on the dance floor. Our friends LOVED the music he played and the dance floor was packed the whole night. I don't know what the going rate for DJs is, but in retrospect I would have paid twice as music for this company's professionalism and experience.
This company deserves its 5 star rating!Reviewed on 7/05/2014 Leah B
We hired Music Host Entertainment for our recent wedding and it was one of the best wedding decisions we made! The company and staff are exceptional. Our DJ was professional, friendly and fantastic at what he does. He ensured our evening ran smoothly and most importantly, our guest were on the dance floor the entire night! We "upgraded" and had the Jazz Trio play at our cocktail hour and during dinner. The trio sounded amazing and it was a perfect addition to our evening. I kept looking back at the trio in awe and we had multiple guests say how impressive they were. Everyone is still talking about how much fun they had at our wedding and it is due in large part to Music Host Entertainment!
Happy Customer - Fun Day!Reviewed on 5/01/2014 Brittany D
Our DJ, Andrew Rounds, did an amazing job! He was flexible with our busy schedules, he was timely and professional, and he kept us in mind as he made sure to play all of our requested songs throughout the night (trust me it was a long list). In addition to all those wonderful things listed above, Andrew from Music Host Entertainment also played music that was enjoyed by a wide range of ages. This made our wedding fun for not only us but all of our guests too! I was continually being told after our wedding that it was the most fun they have had at wedding in a long time. I feel a big part of that compliment was due to the music played by our talented DJ. I am not one to write reviews, but I was happy with the great service and felt compelled to share. Thank you!
Couldn't Have Been Better!Reviewed on 4/29/2014
From our first phone conversations, to our face to face meeting, to the wedding day, it was clear Music Host Entertainment was THE BEST! Rick was great to work with, and made the process fun, simple, and stress-free. He had an extensive knowledge of all musical genres, an extremely charming and classy demeanor, and got our guests up on the dance floor and partying all night. We had a blast - I 100% recommend!!

Charlotte, NC to New Delhi, India - The Journey Continues

It's not an ADVenture if...
something doesn't go wrong.
My Royal Enfield 350 Bullet has decided the journey is over. Bad "CDI", or coil, will not allow it it to start - ever - until replaced. The bad news, Srinigar, Kashmir is not a big Enfield town like Delhi. No part means bike on truck, Mike on Van-Bus-Cab 18 hour marathon to get back to CJ's place. As we speak, he and Sharad are riding back on their 500's, will arrive tomorrow.
To say this trip has been amazing is a HUGE understatement. I never thought I could hurt so much on a bike, or have such awe inspiring moments on a bike. Like riding up these passes, putting my left foot down while stopped for a passing truck - then realizing 4 inches further would be a 3 THOUSAND foot drop!!!! Long days riding in that terrain stretches your endurance, concentration, and desire. You REALLY have to want to keep going. A couple days I wanted to park it and camp, but that's not possible up there.
Before Chris and Sharad get back, I want to say a couple things.
Chris's inspiration and joy are what kept me going. He is one of the most giving and supportive people I've known and deserves every bit of credit coming to him. His and Richa's willingness to put me up, put up with me, with open arms and smiles has been unbelievably comforting. They will always have an open door to my home - no question.
Sharad, will never know how much it means to me that he stuck by me when it got tough. He helped me learn the Enfield's unique operation, offered advice on riding here in India that kept me out of ditches and Tata grills (more to come about this subject). When the 350's death rattled started, all the lights went out. We had to cross a lower pass (12k-13k ft) into Kargil and Sharad rode by my side giving me light to see. If you don't think this would be difficult, ride blindfolded on a 1.5 lane road with a couple thousand feet drop on one side - see how it works. Sharad saved my life in my opinion.
They'll be bringing all the photo's and their thoughts tomorrow, this is just my update - this is gonna be good!

The bottom thermostat is stuck on. Once the temperature in the tank gets too hot, it trips the top thermostat. Replace the lower thermostat.

About the Owner
Guestbook comments from the owner
We arrived at the house late one evening after Road Tripping for 6 days from DC. House was easy to find in a good neighbourhood and great location for the parks ( and right side of city for easy trip to Busch Gardens, Tampa)House was spotlessly clean with a few of those nice presentation touches you only get at some 5* hotels. I had forgotten that the house was 4 bed (although sim in price to many 3 beds) which was great for our 4 kids (3-16).
Our kids loved it, the pool (with kiddie guard), games room and easy layout. We all slept really well every night which I think is an often overlooked factor in recommending a property.
Had intended to blast the parks for 5 days but chilled at the house for one of them. Supermarkets (Publix) just round the corner with good Chinese take away beside it... but watch portion size twice that of the UK!!
Kitchen was well equipped with much more than we needed.
As owners of Commercial, Restaurant and Holiday Rental property ourselves I can confirm this house is very professionally maintained and presented. And it seems to me that the owners enjoy being hospitable. You could spend a huge amount of time searching the net for properties as there are hundreds or You can save yourself some time and rent here with some assurance. I don't think we'll be back in Orlando soon but if you are we can recommend this house.
Thank you.
Mr & Mrs Rogers.
Owner's Response: Thanks for the great review, I agree it's a great location and I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay and your tour of the USA.
Your family is welcome anytime.

Taiwan to raise press freedom in landmark talks with China
Published on Feb 10, 2014 4:57 PM
TAIPEI (AFP) - Taiwan said on Monday it would raise the issue of press freedom with China at their first government-to-government talks since 1949, after media outlets were refused accreditation for this week's meeting.
The Mainland Affairs Council, which formulates the island's China policy, said its chairman Wang Yu-chi would "discuss issues related to equal exchanges of news information" when he meets with his counterpart Zhang Zhijun, China's Taiwan Affairs Office chief, on Tuesday.
"Press freedom is a universal value. We've repeatedly said that the most important thing regarding news exchange between the two sides is the free and equal flow of information," it said in a statement.
The talks in Nanjing in China's eastern Jiangsu province, and a later visit to Shanghai, are the fruit of years of efforts to normalise relations and mark the first official contact between sitting governments since a split six decades ago.

can you have sex when you take your nuva ring out for you 1 week?
I've been on the nuvaring for several months now but can never seem to get this question answered. When you have your ring in for 3 weeks it is required that you take it out 2 have one ring free week, well I was wondering how long the nuvarings hormones are in your system? Can I have unprotected sex before my period it supposed to start or am I at risk of getting pregnant?
I ask this because usually when I take my nuvaring out I start my period 2 days later so dueing those 2 days I have had unprotected sex.... so I guess my question is am I still protected 2 3 or even 4 days after taking out the ring before I start my period?

I had a car like that once. It still ran good, but it was to the point where they'd total it if a bird pooped on it.

I heard him say, "I can't believe I just did that."
I said, "Well, at least you didn't smash an expensive car."

I just had to take a pic of these pretty clouds
Following Al to his house in High Level
I had a great but short stay at Al's (Agplant). While his wife Melanie was in town we talked bike and travel stuff, but once she was back and I noticed that she crocheted, the talk switched to creative stuff
So I sat and knitted while Melanie crocheted, and we talked about family and other things.
I had pitched the tent in their yard, and it was very comfy!! They have a really nice and quiet yard.
complete with strawberry patch behind me.
Al had to go to work early and Melanie shortly after, but they let me use the kitchen to fix my oatmeal and finish packing.
I left fairly late that morning, as the tent was still wet.
Once I got packed I hit the road, it was drizzling unfortunately, but I was hopeful it would dry up fairly soon.
The beginning of Hwy 88 to Red Earth and then Slave Lake was a tad dull.
I did see these things in the fields, but have no clue as to what they are. I'm hoping someone can enlighten me
They are about 6 to 7 foot high
After Red Earth however the scenery turned way nice, rolling hills and a few curves does much to improve one's riding!
Once the rain let up I parked Spirit on the side of the road. sat down and had a snack.
These yellow shrubs where all along the road, making the scenery very sunny and lively, and putting me in a way more cheerful mood
Mixed in was some clover
While sitting there eating my snacks and looking at the flowers I realized that I was positively getting addicted to these!:
They are made with just corn flower, oil and salt, no cheese or anything, yet they taste totally cheesy!
Of course, one of the things that happens when riding down a not too challenging road, is that one looks at the speedometer more often, to see how far one got.
As I looked down I was a few miles away from this
I just had to slow down and then stop right as I hit this number
I hopped back on the road after a while until these amazing flowers caught my eye (more like the color caught my eye)
Side view
top view
I just love clover!
After a while I found myself getting tired again and automatically started looking out for a good spot to camp.
Then I decided on a whim that maybe it might be nice to stay at a camp ground for a change, and grab a shower.
Looking at the map I saw one near Slave Lake. I found it easily. It was a fancy road, and even saw a deer in the bushes.
Once I actually got to the entrance the place looks just too fancy!
RVs everywhere, kids running about and huge building for showers. Yikes! Something tells me this is not a $12 camp ground!
LOL, it wasn't but truthfully it was not as much as I would have guessed, namely $24.
Still I wasn't willing to spend that much for a small piece of dirt to pitch my tent, and probably not even get much sleep with all them folks about!
I turned around and spent the next hour trying to find a place to crash. Some of the roads I got on were just too muddy and I found Spirit doing the old tail swinging again. I really am not comfortable with that feeling!
Lesser Slave Lake, there was an awesome day park, and I was very tempted to sneak Spirit into one of the little hiking trails and hide there. The gate closed at 11. Yeah, I really didn't fancy getting caught and having to break camp up again, so I left
Finally I rode through Slave Lake and headed toward Lac La Biche.
About half an hour later (after a few wrong roads) I saw a steep dirt road veer off to the right. I drove past it not wanting to deal with steep mud, but then I turned around, maybe there would be a spot right on the top with a view.
I walked up the hill first to see how thick the mud was, not too bad! And yes!! a gorgeous spot on the top.
So even though I was tired and didn't need the challenge I decided to go for it and rode up the steep hill.
Spirit made it easy!!!
The only thing wrong with the location was the amount of garbage people left lying around! Why do folks do this???
I pitched the tent in no time and crawled in. It was bear country but I decided to just be aware but not to worry too much.
It was a very cold night!!
I woke early, 7 actually, and the tent was covered in dew and condensation. I turned around and went back to sleep for an hour.
Yeah, in no time at all my tent turned into a sauna!! It was time to pack up!
The ride toward Lac La Biche was pleasant and quick
lots of yellow fields, which Jeff says is probably Canola
Stopped at the visitor Bureau in LLB and according to my GPS I was parked in the water! Sorry, blurry!
I sat outside for a while enjoying the scenery and the fresh air
And the birds
And some more of those amazingly beautiful blue dragonflies
Tomorrow Jeff and I are going to Edmonton (wasn't I just there with Mitch???) to get a new rear tire for Spirit.
The 130/80 is just too small. I have a hard time parking and believe it or not, but that tire is almost worn out!!! I've only done 2,500 miles since Fairbanks. I've never had a tire go bald on me that fast before.
I wonder if it spins a lot more because it is so much smaller

Actually, that is the correct stock OEM size. It's just that most aftermarket sizes are 130/90..... They do make more turns for the same distance.
Wearing out so quick may be because it is not aired up enough... & your load

The little huts are for leafcutter bees, used in Alfalfa fields to pollinate the flowers for Alfalfa Seed. The huts are the "hive" locations as they need to stay dry to keep a healthy hive. They are scattered all across the fields as they only fly so far from the hive and the entire field needs to be pollinated for seed production.
Glad you had a good ride down and good luck on the tire swap.

So yeah, when I did check my tire near White Horse, I had 5 psi in it! So I might have rode from Dawson City to there on basically no air. Still, that was only 300 or miles, maybe less. That doesn't seem like a lot of time to wear down so much.
Maybe they were already low on air when I rode the top of the world (that might explain not wiping out

I had fun today! Went ATVing More later.
Saw a fox walking in the yard
Yesterday, Saturday, Jeff and I drove to Edmonton to pick up the Shinko that he found at Alberta Cycle.
Stopped to take some pictures of these tiger lilies
When we got there we looked around to see if maybe .. they had a 130/90/17. The one he put on hold was a 140/80/17.
Lo and behold!! They did, Jeff found it. I was happy, the 90 is taller and so much easier to slide your hand in when pushing the tube valve through the rim hole.
We walked around the store for a while looking at bikes and goodies.
Then because Jeff paid for my Shinko, I told him I'd take him out for lunch at Guru, and indian restaurant.
LOL, he had never had Indian food.
I think it hit the spot!!
The food was awesome, and we almost finished the whole order. (Ended up with a tiny doggie bag)
We stopped at a few other places, including on the highway to take a photo of this mosque,
and got back to Lac La Biche around 8
Jeff asked if I was interested in going for an ATV ride on Sunday, I said sure, sounds like fun.
When I got up this morning he was at his neighbor's picking up an ATV for me to use.
I took a quick cruise around the yard to try it out.
Then Jeff took me on a trip around the property, which I later found out was so that he could gauge how well I could ride the ATV.
It was good to have a few obstacles to run over before we set out, because the road (Hmmmm, don't think I can call it that) was quite a challenge here and there!
I'm just going to post a bunch of pics:
Following Jeff
Lots of those little blue dragon flies
It's amazing how a beaver can fell a huge tree!
Stopped at a beaver dam
dragonfly in flight
A little too much light, but Jeff is in really deep water there!! He had to back up as the ATV started floating!
Tomorrow I'm going to replace the tire, change the oil, clean the air filter and maybe figure out why my heated grips don't work.
The Shock is not here yet, my brother sent if off the day I got to Lac La Biche .
According to DHL it just left Cincinnati. Yeah, we'll see when it gets here ..

Cool pics, thank you for sharing :)
The ATV riding looks like a blast, especially the mud holes!
As far as your heated grips not working, not sure what kind you have but I have the Oxfords and mine konked out once. Turned out to be just a bad connection on one of the plug in connnections. I just pulled the connector apart, put some dielectric grease in the plug and reconnected it, no problems since.

I've got pain in muscles I didn't know existed!! Yep, ATVing is good for arm development!
Changed the oil today, and again had some metal slivers in it, not too much like at the beginning of my trip a few years ago, but still some. Mostly aluminum, but a couple of tiny slivers looked like either bearing or stainless steel (bolt?) There were only a couple and about 2mm in size. I'm just hoping that these were wedged somewhere that I didn't get to when cleaning the engine after cracking it open and replacing the worn out bearings. I never did remove the electric copper coils (stator?) so maybe they were wedged in there. Still, she sounds and runs good so I'm not going to worry.
Afterhaving changed the oil, I loosened up the rotor bolts and the axle before lifting her up and putting a frying pot underneath her.
Who would have thought such a pot could have a double use??
I removed the rear wheel and one of the bolts attached to the links. Took out the shock bolts and then took the shock out.
As I looked at the shock I thought "What the???????"
I was baffled at first until a small piece broke off . I had never seen dirt accumulate like that before.
I'm guessing the red stuff is shock oil, which really shouldn't be leaking out like that though .
As I had to take the plastic covers off to get to the shock I figured that my air filter would probably like a cleaning as I'd been riding through a lot of dirt and dust.
I took the screw out and removed the cover, then noticed a small strip of plastic that had slid down and wedged against the frame. Whoa! isn't that supposed to be attached to the air box cover?
Never thought I'd see that! Well, nothing some plastic glue or duct tape can't fix!
Yeah, she looks like this again So much for my silent hope that I would not have to work on her for a few months.
I had put the new tire in the sun for a few hours, and started to remove the little 80 off the rim.
I am very thankful that I didn't have a real flat tire along the way, i.e. a nail or so.
This little bugger was hell to get off!! Had to use Jeff's C-clamp to squeeze the bead down. Even then it took me quite a while to get it off.
Putting the 90 on was a piece of cake!!! So much more room to work with. Had the valve in the rim hole is just seconds. I think it took me half an hour last time to get it in while I had the 80 on it, and ended up with bruised knuckles and fingers to boot.
Yep, I am so happy to have been able to find a 90!!!

The red color might also be a leftover of what once was a red bump rubber.. Looks like it's been bottoming out for quite some time, mashed as it is.
Help is on it's way (please, please let it fit!)
Your tire wear.. might it have something to do with the altitudes you've been driving at? Not sure how high up you been, but there's already a noticeable difference in tire pressure over 4500ft altitude. At 6000ft, milk cartons, crisp packs, brought from the lowlands, are already likely to burst.
Just a thought..

Interesting bear in camp story. You don't carry Bear Spray?

New martial art classes start in Calne
12:40pm Tuesday 15th January 2013 in Latest News
New classes have started at Calne Leisure Centre on Tuesday and Friday evenings for adults to come along and learn the ancient art of Ninjutsu.
Anyone is welcome to come along to Calne Budo for the first three lessons where there is no obligation to become a member. Classes take place every Tuesday and Friday from 6:30 to 8pm at Calne Leisure Centre, White Horse Way, Calne. Students can come along to just one or both classes per week.
Beginners start with a white belt, similar to other martial arts. When graded for the first time students will earn a green belt and the rank of 10th Kyu. The green belt stays with you as you progress through the Kyu grades, from 9th Kyu up to 1st Kyu. This is followed by a black belt at Shodan level (1st Dan). The maximum level you can reach in Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu is 15th Dan.
Calne Budo is run by Jamie Wilson, who started Shotokan Karate in 1988 and went on to dabble in boxing and Kung Fu. In the beginning of 2005 he found Ninjutsu and he currently holds the rank of 3rd Dan For more information about Calne Budo and Bujinkan, or to speak to Mr Wilson about starting Ninjutsu call 07766 770991 or visit www.calnebudo.co.uk.

Latest Crab Nebula Stories
NASA's Space Shuttle Columbia carried the Chandra X-ray Observatory into space 15 years ago, deploying it on July 23, 1999.
WASHINGTON, July 22, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Fifteen years ago, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory was launched into space aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia.
University College of London researchers have explained for the first time the details of how the Sun's coronal mass ejections behave when falling back onto the star's surface.
A new model developed by researchers at the University of Southampton explains how the spin of a pulsar slows down as the star gets older.
In a galaxy not that far away, astronomically speaking at least, researchers using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory have detected the first x-rays emitted by the debris of a young supernova, SN 1957D.
Astrophysicists have detected pulsed gamma-ray emissions from the Crab pulsar with energies that exceed 100 billion electron-volts (GeV). These gamma-ray pulses surpass what current theoretical models of pulsars can explain.
Beginning Sunday, September 18, 2011 at NASA's launch facility in Fort Sumner, New Mexico, space scientists from the University of New Hampshire will attempt to send a balloon up to 130,000 feet with a one-ton instrument payload to measure gamma rays from the Crab Pulsar, the remains of a supernova explosion that lies 6,500 light years from Earth.
"Zombie" stars that explode like bombs as they die, only to revive by sucking matter out of other stars.
WASHINGTON, May 11, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The famous Crab Nebula supernova remnant has erupted in an enormous flare five times more powerful than any flare previously seen from the object.
A gamma-ray burst released by the Crab Nebula on April 12 has shocked astronomers.

Pulsar -- A pulsar, which originally stood for pulsating radio source, is a rapidly rotating neutron star, whose electromagnetic radiation is observed in regularly spaced interval, or pulses. Pulsars are closely related to magnetars, the main difference being the strenght of the object's magnetic field. History Pulsars were discovered by Jocelyn Bell and Antony Hewish in 1967 while they were using a radio array to study the scintillation of quasars. They found a very regular...
Crab Nebula -- The Crab Nebula (Messier 1, NGC 1952) is the object the which started Charles Messier logging non-cometary objects on his Messier Catalog. It is the expanding cloud of gas thrown off in the explosion that gave rise to the 1054 supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers, now more than 6 light years across (the nebula is currently expanding at 1000 km/sec and the total mass of ejected material is about 0.1 solar masses). The supernova which produced it was bright enough to...
