Take a hike Monday

After second glance they added $25 because it is a second notice? WTF? I will probably break down and pay it but the assholes are charging me $175

No sense in risking it for sure... Because in the end they will always win.

There’s a ton of that in north west Michigan as well. The whole Manistee area is chock full of 4wheel and snow machine trials.

I got a speeding ticket in the mail. Apparently in August I was tagged by a speed camera. I thought those were illegal? But this is from August and I am just now receiving it? Fuck that noise

From Ohio? I was pretty sure they did away with those here too.

Mrs Redfoot once received three tickets from the same camera. They were sending the tickets to the leasing company we had her car through and by the time they forwarded the first ticket to us, she'd already been caught twice more. That sucked.

Well that's interesting. What does he have to do now?

That sounds like one of those delicate situations where you need to establish a proper balance of correcting his behavior and supporting his necessity of defending himself at the same time.

I ended up doing some research on this. In Ohio speed cameras by themselves are not legal for issuing citations. They must have an officer present with the camera. I have seen a couple of unmarked cars parked underneath overpasses on that stretch so I am assuming that is where they are.

Part of me wants to be a dick about it and challenge whether there was an officer present but that is going to involve me having to show up for court. I think what I am going to challenge is the additional $25.00 they tacked onto the fine because they claim it is a second notice. I am pretty sure had they sent it earlier it would have grabbed my attention so I am going to write a dickish letter and enclose it with my check less the $25. At the end of the day, they get their money and I get some dick. We all win.

Timeless, it's always when you respond that it gets noticed. What kind of trouble are you talking about? Given that kids are hitting THC vapes, throwing objects and being general little assholes on a moving vehicle, flipping the bird doesn't seem like that should be a big deal. I think a nice verbal warning and move on.

There is a great place outside of Phoenix that is a pretty challenging hike. I cannot remember the name, but certain points you are doing more rock climbing then hiking but the view at the top is worth it.

That sounds like Flatiron but there are a ton of trails in the area

Toughest one I've done is two hours north in Flagstaff. Humphreys Peak 9 miles 3300 elev gain and ends at an elevation of 12,633. Best hike ive ever done!

Yeah I told him it's ok to stick up for yourself & family/friends but do it in a way to avoid trouble. Since he broke a school rule I gave him a spanking. Not a harsh one but one to get his attention.

Driver told him not to ever do it again. That's it so far on that end.
