Very nice. So 2004 Sprinter conversion == $16,xxx. Got it.
That should indeed happen automatically. Title shall be mailed to you via DMV in a regular old envelope.

damn even my backwater state does it automatically once the lien is released
Oops, shouldn’t have left that in there. And also, no. That vintage of Sprinter with a nice build out is gonna easily run you $20-30k even with 200k+ on the odometer. I got lucky and found a guy who did a really nice job on the build out and wasn’t interested in getting a premium for it, particularly as he hasn’t even listed it for sale yet and we are friends-of-friends. He could’ve gotten over $20k pretty easily I think.
Meh. At least in Denver County it works like in PA. I paid off the Land Cruiser and a few days later got a clean title with no registered owner or whatever the verbiage is for the lienholder.
For that matter, the DMV also sent me the clean title for the Tesla yesterday, even though it was paid off by a third party with instructions to send it to them, as I sold it...
And now I know your middle initial is M! Surely for Marvolo or Markinowicz or something exciting
Manischewitz?
You were at least listening to Wu-Tang Clan, right?
Enso silicone ring for riding or work stuff. If I squashed my tungsten ring that badly I don't think I'd have a finger left.
I should probably just give up on rings or go the silicone route.
Though losing a ring finger would be a fitting ending to the story. I've broken each multiple times in gruesome fashion, but never anything else. Darn piano hands.
I didn't even get married!
living in sin ftw!back from glamping. What an awesome week. Highlight of the year for sure.
moonrise over the lake:
family campfires:
a bit of rain did not dampen our spirits:
not with how awesome the swimming was:
mermaids!
I even had time to read a whole book!
Kids are in camps, so I'm doing full workdays this week for the first time since lock-down. Kinda sucks. A lot.
At least I have something to look forward to next week. We rented a cottage on a lake, about 15 minutes away from a mega-super-awesome riding area, where two of my buddies have been living since lock-down.

Damn... that looks like a nice getaway.
As your ring expert, I can confirm.Generally speaking, wearing any kind of jewelry when riding or doing heavy work is not to be recommended.

we had a place rented for a week in Maine but unfortunately that got covid'd.
ugh, that must have been a punch in the gut.
luckily, things are trending in the right direction here, so I don't think that's going to happen...
I love the mountains for hiking, biking, and skiing. But canoe-camping on lakes and rivers will always have a special place in my heart...
Yeah, but you live in a first world country.
it was, for a number of reasons (especially as we haven't been on a proper vacation since the accident). we still could have gone to our family's cabin, but its a long drive with 2 young kids and there's no internet. if there was (or even just cell reception) i'd have gone up for a month at least since i'm working remotely anyways.
Quebec. Outaouais region. Sites are by reservation here: http://sage31-milles.ca/ what's nice about this lake is there are very few motor boats, and there are maybe 25 campsites in total. There must be at least 10 miles between each site. Went sleep with the sounds of the loons calling every night.
the lake my family's cabin is on has loons. and a few years ago a bald eagle took up residency. some motor boats but not. the swimming in front of the camp could be a LOT better, but we just paddle out to the middle of the lake and swim there.
We initially tried to rent a place for a whole month since we can work remotely. Air BnB was locked down, and when the Quebec government lifted the freeze, places booked up in 2 days... We got lucky to get a week in.
Hopefully you get to make it out sooner rather than later. As they've been saying in Quebec :
Work computer just took an hour to install updates and restart. And you know what, I'm okay with that.
I think taking my kids camping there every year with their cousins is probably the best thing I've done as a parent. At least it's one of the things I'm the most proud of.
ours is owned by a family member (and will stay in the family when they pass) and isn't rented out, so we can go whenever we want. but it's an 11 hours drive.
sounds like star gazing heaven....
ha! probably. but I was asleep by the time the stars were out. kids were wearing me out yo!
Have to get out there later in the year when the sun sets earlier!
Time to throw some weight on my back and do the rocky up and down for a few hours in my weekly attempt at keeping depression at bay. 90+ and chance of Thunderstorms should keep the mouth breathers away.
The view from my hike yesterday was largely skunked by a lenticular cloud formation. I was waiting for it to burn off but I got too cold sitting around.
Not too shabby!
Thunderstorm approaching from the southwest...
Meh.
Today was fun. Ass has brown stuff on it, not really sure if it's the mud from the steep rock slabs or poo from my but. TBD.
Crushed 2 liters of water and a beer on today's ride. Need more tomorrow.
This does not look like the Greater Golden Horseshoe area... you in Quebec?
Yes.

I hope for you that Maelstrom opens in time for your dose of Wolverine.Yes.

Did a little over 8 miles in 4 hours with the only break being for a quick stretch. Didn't sit down once and pushed a 2 mph pace. Only encounter was a small group of 20 somethings, huddled together near the start, without anything resembling a face mask. The female gave me the creepy old man look when I stepped off trail to avoid their germ cannons. Other than them it was solo time in the woods.
