So remote in fact, we had to get there by helicopter. Here is the heli on it's return landing to pick us up after five hours of filming. There is no other way into this canyon or to the site of the plant other than by air.

More info about the abandoned power plant can be found here.

The Iron Butt Association certifies distance/endurance motorcycle rides. I documented my ride to Mississippi for my cousin Jessica's High School Graduation.

Iron Butt Ride Photos and route

Here is where I work from day to day. This image was merged from 4 separate shots. It was my first try at a photo-merge.

I was trying to take a picture of my house with my iPhone while piloting the Cessna Skyhawk with the other hand.

Vicky and I are sad to say that Otis is no longer with our little family. His cancer had taken the use of one of his legs and continued to grow very rapidly. Otis has been a member of the family for eleven years now and has spoiled us with endless affection.

We concentrated on making certain he had joy in every day he had left with us. I love my Bubba dog.

This fella was sitting outside our manufacturing facility at work this morning. If he knew that everyone inside is a hunter, he prolly would have chosen a different resting place. Fortunately for him, you can't hunt in city limits. I bet he knows that.

I was told that he looked up at the camera and was comfortable enough to lay back down. Smug bastard.
