Not Much to Report

May 22, 2006

Not too much to report today. It was about 45 degrees when I pulled out of the driveway. I passed Nina on the way down Washington Street, as she now works a similar work shift to mine. I guess we will have to think about car pooling, but she takes a lot of things to work, and I don't think I have the luggage space!

I cam home around noon time, as I scheduled an appointment to get my truck sprayed with a bedliner material. I had gone long enough, and the paint in the bed was in bad shape, so this would be a worthwhile investment. I rode home on I-70, thinking it would be thin traffic. It was pretty thick in spots, I felt like I was back in Houston, but it was about 30 degrees cooler, and I knew where I was going!

The weather looks good for Tuesday, it will be a long day, two jobs, so I will see you on the other side!

Thursday, May 3, 2007 So you probably all know by now that the first Thursday of the month means another Cruiser Club Meeting. For those of you who just want to hear about the riding, here it goes.

I get off of I-70 at 465 on the east side of town, heading south until the Washington Street exit. Now, on to something else. I wasn't on the bike, or at home early this day, I was in Nashville , Tennessee. I was at the funeral for a friend of mines mother. This is one of my friends that I have had since High School. Many of my friends I have known for years, even decades, and this f

Riding with Veterans

Saturday, November 10, 2012 I have a riding friend that I hadn't ridden with for a long time. Actually, both he and his wife ride, and I always enjoyed riding with them, and the company when we stopped. He had emailed earlier in the year to set up a ride, but we just never got it planned. He hit me up on email once more, and we planned to ride together in the Veteran's Day Parade in Indianapolis. Now, I am not a Veteran, but my riding partner is, serving in the Air Force during the first Persian Gulf War. She is disabled from what she experienced there with the oil fires and such, and so it is an honor to take her and have her participate in a parade in her and other's honor. We started at the Speedway American Legion, coolly numbered Five Hundred, and it sits just across Georgetown Street from the famous oval. Here is out trip from the post to downtown: We had to wait a little bit, but then we got going on the Parade, it took a while to cover a very little distan
