Mr. Silver hasn't gotten his new bike yet. And I haven't figured out how to get our new pic into the avatar. It keeps saying it's too big. so here's it is for you all to see.

Great pic Silver! You need to reduce the file size. I usually do that in adobe photoshop. You can both change the size by going to image size, and also when you save as jpg tell it low, med, high resolution until it is both small enough AND legible. I usually do a combination of the above two methods.
Mr. Silver, I bet you can't wait to get your new ride!!!!!!!!!!

I know how to reduce the image size and how to crop but I don't see any way to reduce the resolution. I do not have Adobe photoshop. I'm using HP image zone and photobucket.

Great job Mr. Silver! I agree that you should keep posting your milestones. That's what this forum is about.

Roll Tide!!!!
Ahhh BAMA fans!! Almost moved there, friends nephew goes there, love the tide. I wear my Bama shirt with pride!
And I had to laugh when Lisa SH posted that picture... I am the one on the left! I swear!! The bugger thing about it is since I'm short, my legs just look fat most of the time. But when You get up close you realize, no those really ARE all (well mostly) muscle! My running coach teases me about my calves!
He says thats how he recognizes me in a race! OY!!
And the body builders at the gym drool over them. I'm not so impressed!! I do NOTHING to encourage them! sigh....

Pictures Promised!
Here's the deal...hopefully, we'll be at the beach next week. What that means is Silver is going whether I can or not...so hopefully WE'LL be at the beach, since I've got a pending legal issue in Indy where I may have to testify (ironically, probably just down the hall from IndySteel). SO....
If I can get that behind me and can still catch a flight to meet up with the family, you'll have a picture of us riding at the beach in Gulf Shores, Alabama a/k/a "The Redneck Riviera"

Hmmmm......looks like that means that silver is driving to the beach (11 to 12 hours) with the 2 kids plus friend, plus luggage, plus my bike and possibly his new bike.
And you're going to be flying in? *sigh* I'd better get some free time for some serious miles! at this point in the long midwest winter, I'll take that for some sunshine!

Why of course, if you bring my new bike (it arrived, but I don't have it yet...), then WE'LL have some serious free time for miles... Originally Posted by silver

Too funny!!!
At dinner tonight I was lamenting to mr. running mommy about how we needed to get a beach house in gulf shores and have our friends meet us there.
We have friends that used to live in Hoover, but now live in Villa Rica GA. And some friends in Texas that we want to get together. I'm thinking that a good ol trip to the redneck riviera is in order!!
The Florabama is up and running again right??
