If you checked out the latest pictures you noticed several people doing an odd salute. They hold one thump to their head and palm forward extending their four fingers upward. You will notice the whole group at the restaurant, the waitress, JB and Suzy, and Dee our motel clerk all doing this salute. I am not participating in any of the photos. Now for a little history behind this salute.
On our way to the north end of Maine up Route 11 we were told there could be lots of Moose along the road. Shortly after heading up 11 I spotted a moose, no mistaking that head, off the side of the road in a stand of deadwood by a pond, I pointed to it but the two bikes behind me didn't see it. After we stopped I told everyone of my moose sighting and the ridicule started immediately, everyone was sure I just saw a cow. Now whenever we pass a heard of cattle someone in the group holds his thumb to his head fingers up in an approximation of a moose antler.
This has now become a running joke and Al has forced total strangers into making the moose sign for the Road Captain.
I will get even, maybe not today,maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

You're so funny, Dad! Your friends should know by now you WILL get even. They might be making fun of you (it is rather hilarious!), but do they know how silly they look?!? Love looking at the pics! Have fun, and watch out for those antlers! =) Love you!
