Well the year started with a managing firm taking over where I work.  Cut staff, cut pay and hired a bunch of illegals, then told us to be thankful we still had a job.  I got to do the chemicals all year at the pool so that meant I had to be there at least 6 days a week. You have to love the American way don't you. After that the third operation on my nose in April.  This was to correct two earlier screw ups.  It didn't.   Combine that with a cooler and wetter summer then most and just didn't have the time or money to ride like I usually did. A lot of local event were rained out. Thank God Pam and I got to go down to Arkansas for the Bikes, Blues and BBQ rally.  I did take a lot of photographs of other topics.  They can be viewed at " My Other Photographs" from the home page.   Hope to do better next year.
