There are guard rails on roads like the High Road in Rocky Mountain National
Park? I didn't notice any there, I guess I should open my eyes when I drive
it next time.

Wife: "why are you driving down the middle of the road so slowly?"

Me: "Because no one is coming toward us and I don't like the "express route"
down on your side of the car."

just a sly fox, and remember, my opinion and $ will buy coffee at the
trading post
