Home Again, Home Again.

  Well, I made it home this afternoon. It was a great ride and trouble free, except for that little glitch with the electronic display that I ultimately fixed. But Hey! That was just a minor inconvenience. Yes the weather was a little iffy on a number of days and the wind was definitely a factor but you know, if …

Timing is Every Thing

I’m in the home stretch after a fabulous week long ride to San Antonio on the Harley. Last night I left you in Roswell, New Mexico. Tonight I’m in Alamosa, Colorado, a scant 3 hours from home.I had lunch in Santa Fe and was in pretty good shape to make it on home today but the wind was brutal so …

Down San Antonio Way

Headed to San Antonio, Texas for a couple of days. Riding the Harley of course. I just couldn’t take it anymore. I had to get out of town and warm up a bit. I picked San Antonio for a handful of reasons, the primary one being that it’s warm down there and I could use some warm right now. I …
