Not me.
I have lived in Rock Ridge my whole life.
Saw Mongo come to town riding a bull once. Saw him knock out a horse too.
We had a new Sheriff for a short time. Nice guy, from out of town, but he wasn't related to anybody so he didn't last long, but he gave a great speech! Great post! 👍

I'm 100 miles to the grocery store.......350 miles to my Doc.......500 miles to my dentist. Pard, listen Pard this was geared to the fine pards in the lower 48. Pard 79S; Good afternoon to you sir, I hope that you all had a decent weekend and that your weather has been tolerable as of late too. We've had some seasonally chilly temps, but missed the dump of snow that our daughter who lives in the Lower Mainland got. That'll be one ugly commute for most of Greater Vancouver tomorrow... Anyways sir I am cognizant that you've stipulated lower 48, am also at times painfully aware as a Canuck we're not part of that, but felt I might be forgiven for answering as there is an understandable language barrier between Canucks and everyone else, you know? My wife and I were born and raised about a thousand miles from here and drifted out west nearly 40 years back now to seek our fortunes after taking a financial shellacking farming. Last summer we drove up to Dawson City so that's 1800 miles one way and we took the scenic route home. We can highly recommend the Cassiar and Alaska Highways both if one has the time by the way. In 2018 we flew down to San Antonio which is a wee bit further south than Dawson City was north, then we drove down to San Padre Island. We both enjoyed our short stay in Texas, part of which was the Alamo which was a bit of a bucket list pilgrimage for me. Before that we've been to Oahu and Maui a year apart when the girls were still in school and enjoyed the sights and sounds there immensely. We'd like to go back to see a couple more of the islands there. In ancient times I was through Europe with one sibling and my folks, then we spent a week in Kenya. It was a different planet then in some ways, but in others it was just after the Munich Olympics killings, the Red Brigade and Baader Meinhof Red Army Faction were going strong and then Jomo Kenyatta was still in power so it wasn't exactly a peaceful time then either. Speaking personally, we've planned to travel a fair bit in our retirement, but whether that'll be doable or not only time and world conditions will tell I guess. Anyways 79S, once more if you wander down past our place, drop me a note and the coffee will be on for you at our place. Dwayne Pard you are well traveled and heck yeah on the coffee. You are a Pard, if you noticed iffy Pard Olson never offered coffee but still wants to be a Pard.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Not a frequent poster so probably don't qualify as a pard but I have been to AK, Japan, Korea, Afghanistan, and most of the lesser 48. However I don't hold a candle to my son who flies generals around as his job in the Air Force and when he's not doing that he can borrow the jet for training purposes and go nearly anywhere he wants (within fuel limitations) with it. He flew over Tikkanut's house not long ago for fun. He's in Qatar now but he travels farther from home just about every week than many people travel in a life time. He and I were talking about this very subject recently.

Yes. Not much in the last 5 though.
Years longhaul trucking count?
3100 miles per week average. (In a 55mph truck.)
Border to Ontario and PQ. East Slope to Atlantic.
Always the traveler, never the tourist.
This is as far east as I've lived.
The furthest West was about 30 miles from here.
Talking about a trip to KY.
Gonna see the Ark.
