-Sweet! you added driving! youre the best Ryan Image
now i can post my "TR" from last week! :D

Ok, some of you know, I had major jaw surgery 2 weeks ago, so I cant hike n run around at all. but, I was goin crazy
after being trapped indoors for 10 days, so I went for a cruz up 74 last wednesday for some fresh air and speed.
I was really lucky, in that my whole way up 74 there was NO one in front of me. which was so cool, cause a slow
moving chicane woulda totally ruined half my reasons for going. anyway, i felt a million times better after my drive.It was
good to get the car out too because she'd been just sitting fo 9 days..

On that long strait through the trees I got to go 100 since no one was in my way. (she can go 140, but didnt feel like pushing it because after sittin in bed so long, 100 felt plenty fine for now :D ) And my car was lovin the nice cold air, it always amazes me how much of a difference I can feel in the car between hotter n colder air. anyway, heres a few pics

The back side of San Jacinto (as oposed to the palm springs side anyway..

I is making joke, tall girl.

Peoples who don't know mountains come up from the desert in shorts n' stuff. The classic is the woman who wears heels up to the top of the tram and tries to walk around in the snow.
