Just heard that the offer I made for a town house, in old town Occoquan, was accepted.  WOOHOO!!

 waytogo waytogo   Those Indian names are as bad, or worse, than Hawaiian names.

So does that put you nearer to or farther away from work & the other CAM folks?

It's about the same distance to work as the the place that I currently live is, just in the other direction.  As far as the CAM thing goes; doesn't really matter.  Everyone up here is spread out all over the place.  There's even quite a few who live up near, and past Baltimore.

As far as the place goes: it's pretty neat.  Occoquan is a small, "pre-revolutionary" town that is on the Occuquan River.  The town itself only has about four main roads, and several alleys/lanes, but it's really cool all the same.  The place I'm buying is on the hill top overlooking the town, and comes equipped with a brick/wooden walkway down the hillside, straight to the Belgian cafe.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

It has a shared lawn, but a park just down the street.  And yes, it does have its own garage.  Nothing huge mind you, but big enough to get both bikes, tools and all the fixings in.  Poor VW will have to stay outside...

Did another 175 miles on the Gixxer 1K today, it's a fun bike with a very smooth power delivery...we were going to do Mount Palomar but it was rainy and cold, so we spent our time in the valleys, at point doing more than 50 consecutive miles of twisties... [moto]

Yea.  Les' isn't stock though.  He's done some intake and exhaust work, and remapped it to suite.  Might have even slapped some high-comp pistons in it, I can't really remember...
