New to posting, not new to board

I'm woofhund, mrsmaxib. I recently was at Grattan and took many pictures, 175 to be exact. All of the pictures used by maxib in his post.
I rode a silverwing up until a year ago when arthirtis forced me to get faux knees. Which, btw are workng out ok. Sometimes I walk a little like a drunk w/o benefit of alcohol!! And I'll never be able to kneel again but I am no longer in constant pain.
I just have to work up the courage to ride again.

Woofhnd

Thanks yall for the warm welcome!! Even though you know maxib yall are still willing to welcome me into the fold. I am not nearly as windy as he is! Or as knowledgeable. But I do feel as though I have many, some of whom I have never even met. Others, I have pictures of.

Thanks again, I'll be lurking.

fixed it for you dear...

Yes we do Juan...sorta scary isn't it?

Seriously, we haven't stopped talking about MCADX days at Grattan since we got back. She had so much fun there and meeting everyone that she just had to join, and that's saying a lot for someone who only uses her computer for playing solitaire.

I never laughed so hard as when I sat with y'all at dinner at the Timbers. It was all I could do to keep my composure, or try to. I don't know y'all well enough to cut loose and say what I really think. Especially regarding the ball tip steak!!

Hey mrs S, I have sort of been lurking in the background for a long time. That is behind maxib when he's on. I know most of the online names and a few of the people from 2 years ago at grattan.
I had a blast at Grattan this year taking pictures and hope to go again next year. Glad to have met and talked with you. Wish I had your moxy to get out on the track and ride!!
