Interstate 86 in the West lies entirely within the state of Idaho. It basically replaces old US 30. It runs from I-15 just north of Pocatello westward 63 miles to connect with I-84. I have never been on I-86 but I have driven US 30 across that stretch many times in another era.So I personally am no longer 30, far from it, for today I am 86. 86, "would you believe…"
Well, then you ARE old, Someone said. "I asked you not to tell me that," I said.
Another day to enjoy this life "…and loving it."
Couldn't resist the references to my favorite agent. "sorry about that, Chief."
Tried to work in a couple more but "missed it by that much."

A right beautiful day to celebrate 86, dear friend of Maxwell.
Chuck, I wonder if only guys of a certain age catch the reference to agent 86.
Happened to think of you and your blog today; hope you are well and happy!
Jim, I appreciate that you thought of me. I am still on the top side of the sod, so thankful for that. Actually, I am doing quite well given the standard of my age. Spouse struggles with cancer, which is to say we are both struggling with that issue; but we are blessed in many ways.
