04/25/2011 08:53AM Wow, Stumpy! My first question/thought was, "Was that Stumpy or did he use a stunt double?" What a great post, I am truly impressed and entertained! |

04/25/2011 12:39AM Thanks for all the nice words. I've gotta admit, there was not much in the pack other than fill (some plastic bags, another pack & a tarp). But I think I could do it with a regularly filled pack too. I had not tried that in 28 years & since I fixed the wheel on my unicycle last summer, I've been itching to try it again. It was a little windy that day, and there's not much footing (for lack of a better term), to leverage against that. So when the wind said "go up the driveway" that's what I did. I made three passes with my wife snapping pictures & each time a gust of wind, forced me to turn up the driveway. By the third pass, there were 3 neighbors watching, & two of them taking pictures...They said they were sending them to friends in Poland. |

04/23/2011 10:13PM You just never know what you'll see when you open a thread started by Stumpy. This is great! What a gifted guy you are! If I tried that I'd be posting pictures of me in a hospital bed! |
