I have to admit that despite the fact that it was a gorgeous day and the bike was in fine fettle, I wasn't. The two incidents that brought my thyroid problem to a head took place several hundred yards down Arnoldstown Road and in the parking lot across from the arch. Things are getting bad again, and going back there was difficult, because it had enough of the same "feel" about it. I almost didn't stop. The rest of the trip was hard-fought, but I was determined to finish what I started and I got through it. I wasn't real pleased with the way it went from a technical standpoint.

The only good part about any of this is that I can now get more blood work done and get back on track toward figuring out what this thing actually is.

Sorry, that veered off topic.

I have no idea what you're talking about. The engraving at the base says "MARK LIKES PIE."

Monument marking the spot where MG Joseph Mansfield (USA) was mortally wounded at the Battle of Antietam, Sharpsburg, MD.




Now here's the new one:


This place holds a Guinness Record from 1988. Have fun

Think Christmas

Found and confirmed it with some help from Google, but I'll leave it to someone else unless I get up that way.

It was a beautiful day to ride. I've been waiting to get this one for awhile. It seems like every weekend has been bad weather for the last month.





Here is the new location. I figured we could start the year off easy.



Enjoy!!!

Cool I know that sign !! but I think I'll leave it alone and see what happens , thanks Craig and what a great day it was for a ride !!!

All roads lead to Thurmont...

Thanks for getting that tag! I was starting to think the other day that I needed to move it.

The place shown in my tag is Clemsonville Christmas Tree Farm. They hold the world record for the world's largest wreath. The house shown is the Clemsonville Manor/Farm house

The weather has been great, someone get this moving

Thought about it today. I've got class tomorrow evening, but I might try.

Gene should have a couple pictures to post tonight.

Ok after a few fun hours winding around the small mountians of central Md we have a great spot for the next tag and there is a reward at the picture site!! yum yum !!

And now the new one

The South Mountain Creamery was a pretty cool place. Truely a hidden gem. Great Tag location.



Here is the next Tag picture. This will either be too easy or too hard. As a local to this area it seems easy, but if it proves to be too hard I can drop some hints.

It looks familar but I can't place where yet ? Maybe Mont Co ?

I want to give Jed some time to see the Tag. There is probably a good chance he will know it. We need some more Maryland people.

I saw an ST going through Hampstead over the weekend.

I also passed an older gentleman that was trimming his hedges that yelled "I have one of those!" I'm not sure if he meant an ST or just that he had a motorcycle.

So how was that ice cream !!

I think I know exactly where that is.

Lisa and I both think we have seen it to but can't place it but one of us will find it

I think I know where it is, too, but I'm not likely to nail it anytime soon. Have at it, young man!
