I should have been getting chores done but this morning i took a little ride to my favorite hiking trails. They have a cabin there that was constructed in 1830. It was moved here when the lake was made so it would not get flooded. About two years ago they put siding over the logs to protect it...

My uncle had a horse that played chase with a racer every morning. The horse would nudge the snake and chase it to the end of the feild. Then the horse would turn around and the snake would chase it back. One morning my grandmother said the horse looked bad. She went to the feild and it had been...

Over the years i have had a snake that lived in a car i had and I had one year a huge rat snake that lived in my shop. I had a bag of dog food in the wheel barrel and it would curl up around the bottom of the dog food bag. It got to know me really well and trusted me. I would get dog food every...

Unfortunatley this was not a pleasure trip. Going to say our final farewells to a cousin. But it was in a beautiful place and a few of his biker buddies showed up on bikes too.

Love that bike!

Yea i thought the same thing! Haha

I hope you have some help on the roof! I tore off shingles replaced some decking and put metal on my house a couple years ago by myself. I found out im not as young as i used to be! Go figure? Haha

Thoughts and prayers are with the people there.

this may not be weird or i never think of it as weird because it is near where i live and i ride by a lot. Today i was thinking about those caddies on 66 down in texas so i thought i would stop get a picture and share this.

I really didn't know what thread to ask this question but here it is. I have traveled only in the US and Canada. I have been watching bike reviews from Europe and noticed strange to me markings on the roads. I was very curious as to what they mean and are used for. First things is the zig zag...

I absolutely agree with this concept. when i have the time that is the only way to travel for me. Without a doubt that is when i have the most fun traveling. I usually wind up rushing at some point in my travels because of time limitations. I am rushed every day at work then at home, so when i...
