So... Nanci... did anyone ever claim it... and if they didn't, was a good bike?

It was some ancient 10-speed, which we left in front of the house where we found it, and it was gone later.

I've found logs that we (hubby and I) come back for later (a bit heavy to lug on the bike) and turn into bowls and candlesticks. Sometimes after a major storm has blown through, we toss the kids in the trailer and head out to see what has fallen.

Brandi - eww on the yellow items - but at least they're recreating safely

Fishdr. Where do you live? I grew up in Marks, MS. I've lived in Eastern Oregon for 14 years, but I'll always be a Mississippi girl.

I live in Cleveland. I've driven past Marks on my way to Oxford. Let me know if you visit the area - we'll have to get together! Oregon is a bit of a change from MS - wow!

No kidding! I usually do go to Memphis (momma) and Clarksdale (one brother) in April, but this year one of my sisters and I are taking our niece to France so I won't be there this year. But next year maybe we can ride together!

AintDoody - Awesome - that would be great! I'll be looking forward to it!

This post made my head hurt...is there a Cleveland in MS or am I REALLY confused geographically and the MS delta extends into Ohio??

Most likely it's plain as day and I'm just my usual confused self.

This should help - yes, there is a Cleveland, MS. I hope that helps your head
