I appreciate comments from faithful readers, such as yourself<br /><br /><b>Chuck:</b><br /><br />I had a great time too. You are great company. You are the artist and I am the photojournalist. I have spent many years doing street photography on the east side of Vancouver.<br /> You should do an article on the strengths and myths of that 3rd wheel<br /><br /><b>cpa3485:</b><br /><br />For many years I have surrounded myself with photographers, and familiar with their antics. Before I document anything I have a purpose outlined in my mind. I already decided before this trip that I was going to do a post on Chuck and the photos I took during those days only re-inforced my direction. I even told Chuck during the time not to be offended with what I posted as it would only be done "in fun".<br /><br /><b>Mr Conchscooter:</b><br /><br />I consider you my friend too. I only wished that you lived closer. Being on the opposite ends of the continent doesn't make it easier.<br /><br /><b>Mike:</b><br /><br />Common bonds give us a reason to interact. Whether it be through bikes, scooters or photography. Once we understand each other's attitudes and philosphies and find that we have similar interests then friendships are born.<br /><br /><b>Lance:</b><br /><br />His "booth" is on the street level towards the west, nearly straight across from the original Starbucks Coffee <em>(hint, hint)</em> He loves his coffee<br /><br /><b>Ms M:</b><br /><br />I look back on our days together with good memories. If only . . . it didn't rain so much on the first day. It was a washout for pictures, we didn't want to ruin our cameras.<br /> An internet stick is about the size of a USB flash drive.

An accomplished photographer taking pictures of another excellent photographer, taking pictures of scooters and BMW's.<br />I myself will admit to some fondness for that BMW. It's a nice size and looks great. If I ever take up touring, that might be the vehicle for me. But then again, that MP3 looks great also.cpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-92088706944336046772009-09-24T23:38:30.547-07:002009-09-24T23:38:30.547-07:00Dear Bobskoot,

Thanks for the memories, the ride, and your sincere flattery.<br /><br />For the record (as Mr. Toad say's), I've no interest in that BMW upon which you show me astride ... other than the academic question so often posed by one such as I possessing significant vertical challenges. As you know, my MP3-400 had barely 800 miles on its odometer when we began our odyssey and my opinion of the scooter was still being formed. I will tell you that after riding some 2300 miles in the 10 days after leaving you in Vancouver, I am completely satisfied with my decision to purchase that machine. The ride is awesome.<br /><br />Also, just for the record, it was indeed coffee. The real story is that you woke me up way too early that morning and I needed a short nap -:)<br /><br />Thanks, Bob, for your kind documentation. You're right that when it comes to cameras, I'm usually the one focusing and not the subject being focused upon. A refreshing change and my thanks for your photos. We will have to plan another adventure before too long. One request, though ... please pay a bit more for your weather advice next time around. <br /><br />With my very kindest regards,<br />Chuck PefleyChuck Pefleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02886326288618029812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-52199114182929530542009-09-24T22:09:00.881-07:002009-09-24T22:09:00.881-07:00Dear Bobskoot:

You have presented your readers with a rich tapestry that blends light and color -- time and time again -- with interesting text that is informative and highly humanistic.<br /><br />I hope it was a good experience for you, to look over the shoulder of Chuck Pefley... Because he was undoubted looking over yours when you stepped up to the plate. <br /><br />I hope you will continue to take us to the spectacular overlooks around Whistler and Squamish, as well as the fish markets, coffee houses, and bordellos of Vancouver -- from your own perspective. <br /><br />Still, it's great running around with new riding partners. <br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack • reep • ToadJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.com
