RE: A battle to find the ideal spot.

in Silver Bloggers • 2 years ago

That is one of the most stunning pictures I've ever seen, what a wonderful place you reside. The road that you had to travel to snap that picture is more than a little bumpy, the pot holes look as though they could swallow a car.

The price of gas is very high here in the states, which makes you think twice before just jumping in the car and enjoying a pleasant ride.

Peace my friend.

    Thank you Rob and I just felt the drawing power of that picture, so come what may I was going to get it.

    Can you believe that road is not one of our worst roads. I buckled the front wheels of our car when I had go and do a wedding in a far off town. The only thing that can drive on those roads is a tractor. But of course nobody warned us.

    Ah, so it is the same as here with the gas prices and yes, we can also only go out out on short trips. Around town and the mountains at the one end and the ocean on the other end is only 6 kilometers away from us.

    Peace and !LUV also to you guys.

    Oh, and have some !PIZZA.

    Gas prices seem to be falling a little, but they have a long way to go before they get back to being affordable. I would like to see some of the roads that are on your worst road list if this one isn't.
    It seems that you have so many spectacular places to visit, only a short distance from your new home, that's a good thing.

      You are right and may I say that I don't think that it will ever again become affordable. Opec has to cover future losses, as the electric cars are slowly taking market share away from them.
      Whenever I am up north again I will send you some photos my friend.
      We are blessed with nature here and will take a long time to see everything in the close surroundings.
      But we so want to visit all of the mountain passes and there are about 85 of them all over the place.

      Have some !PIZZA and !LUV to Robin

      Electric cars are the wave of the future, but they need to build out the infrastructure so that there are places to be able to charge up the battery when on a long trip.
      If the other mountain passes are anything like this one, we're all in for a treat.

      'm happy that you've found a place to your liking, it sounds like you are very happy there.

      thanks for the beer and pizza my friend, greatly appreciated.

        Greetings Rob, and you are right, as the infrastructure should be a priority at this stage. Another factor is that the range of the electric cars are limited and in South Africa where we can travel for 2 or 3000 kilometers, it will turn out to be expensive to stop for many recharges.

        Thank you and we have some stunning passes here and I will hopefully get some on camera to show you.

        Just another transit place my friend, as we haven't found the ideal home yet, but yes it will do for now.

        Always my pleasure, as you guys also do a lot for us and we thank our Lord for your hearts.

        !PIZZA !LOL !LUV

        Ps. One cannot issue the BEER tokens in combination with other tokens anymore.

        Hanging your hat in a new area opens up a whole new area to explore and get to know, very exciting. It's very much like when we travel over the winter, all kinds of new stuff to explore and enjoy.

        Thanks for the beer my friend.

          Agreed and that will happen soon I hope, as we are still in the same area, but just in a better house that is not near the roads with all of that noise. So the silence is a blessing.
          Sad thing is that the new place has no view of the mountains and so we will wait until by grace we can get something small on one of the farms.
          You guys are lucky to be traveling over winter and yes it should be an explorers playground.

          Speaking about traveling, I read an amazing report today. One of our bird agencies caught and tagged a Honey Buzzard that visited here last year. They also tagged him with a tracker to see where he was from.
          So when he left they tracked him and can you believe that he flew all of the way to Finland.
          Traveling some +250 kilometers per day he took 42 days to get to Finland.
          From the southern tip of the African continent crossing the Suez canal and up over Belarus and the other countries to end up in Finland.
          So next year they will track his return path and so amazing methinks.

          Have yourself another !BEER my friend and greetings to your beloved.
