There are times I really wished I still lived in Pearl City.. That was a long while back when I was in the Navy, but I sure do miss rolling out to the North Shore in my '71 vw bus/camper and spending the weekends out there. 80 degrees and trade winds year round? Can't beat that!

Man I wish I still live in Carolina. Lived there all my life and never went to the BRP.

Hey OP... do the letters "FO" mean anything? I wish I had conditions like that. But it's also nice to only pay 3.50 a gallon. Vs. 6.

Beautiful pictures! We have been getting into the mid-sixties here in Memphis. Beautiful riding weather. I am loving it. But that means Spring rain is headed our way any week now.
