Yesterday's 400+ Mile Day (in the twin SS 1LE's). Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, and many other roads!!
Video always looks so slow..lol. However, Mike was taking it easy to learn the car / tires and I was driving with my left hand only, holding my phone with my right hand and Not shifting at all... stayed in 3rd the whole time. Tiring on my shoulder...lol

@Big Swole If I hadn't become a pilot, my second choice would have been a law enforcement career (FBI, State, local). And when I've told friends currently in law enforcement that, their usual response is "You're kidding, right?"

Yup! I'd never recommend it anymore.. So much has changed. I just don't see it it being worth it anymore.
I took annual leave the past wknd. and on Friday (My Shift), the Rookie that just got cut loose on his own and another STEP officer had to shoot a guy that was walking around pointing a gun at passer by's. He would not comply with demands and kept walking toward them. Allegedly pointing it at them. He ended up dying a day later.
Could have been me if I hadn't been on vacation.

I know I'm making light of the situation, ... but, me thinks you had a better day!

Would LOVE to have you come down and show you around the mountain roads !!!
Thank you Sir! A most kind offer!
I've been trying to coordinate a trip out east (he's in Virginia) over the past few years (COVID prior/post), but we have not be able to align our schedules, hoping this year may be different.

Could not agree more, I find the history, architecture and roadways in the east to be way different than those of the west - sure, we have history out here, but back there, you have more.
