Look at the photo and try to figure out where it is. If you can’t figure it out ( I wouldn’t have if I hadn’t been there),here are three clues. 1) It was the meet up point for the kayak trip I took yesterday on the Dragon Run with the FODR. 2)The 1680 Acts of Assembly at Jamestown ordered local officials to establish 20, 50-acre port towns and this one was named in 1705. 3)Virginia State Oyster Shucking Contest is held here during Virginia’s official oyster festival. }

Urbanna is where the rich people keep their boats. Pretty town. Definitely worth a visit. It's at the top of the Middle Peninsula on the Rappahannock River. Great riding country up there, especially Matthews County. If any of you HR Buellers want to head there, let me know. I am GPS equiped. Where's this Buell-round 2. Clue 1-I did 111 ( according to my GPS) over the sound bridge to get to this town.

Been no where in the last week...or have any trips in mind soon. But all it takes is the urge to roll. The Diamondback is planned in June. Had to decline a Dragon trip in May and a Laconia trip in June. Next round is anyones go. |

No clues yet. Anyone going to the 2011 Armed Forces Run and Rodeo at Ft. Eustis tomorrow? Surely I won't be the only Bueller there...will I? Anyway, if you go, stop by the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) booth between 1300 and 1500. I expect to be assisting there then. Copy and paste this E-invite for details. It says RSVP by May 4, but what the heck. https://einvitations.afit.edu/JointBaseLangleyEustis/anim.cfm

It's about 37 miles south of the Planters Peanuts Store in Suffolk, just west of route 32. I do canoe too in that part of the world. If I could just figure out how to make a safe canoe hauler for my Uly, I'd really be livin'. |
