The strange events of last night.

We arrived late at Cody Wyoming late last night. After we booked in at the motel we headed out to Leslie Neilson’s Ranch, just out-of-town. Leslie gave us a great meal of Salmon and mashed potatoes with all the usual veggies and regaled us with stories about his latest Sci-Fi movie. I have to say this guy is ever bit as eccentric in real life as he is in his movies.

Any way after dinner he took us out to his barn where he showed us the rocket scooter used in his latest movie. When he asked if I would like to take it for I “turn around the ranch” I naturally jumped at the chance and after a few short lessons Leslie was confident that I was ‘ready to fly”.

Having jumped on board I cracked the throttle and took of like the proverbial rocket (scooter). This thing was great, I was up and down the yard in no time flat and with Leslie’s encouragement I was about to get airborne. So much fun…………………….

Then I woke up. Rats!

I really am going to have to stop drinking Black Heart 90 proof rum.

My new best mate, Leslie Nielson. Who sadly passed away four years ago.
