Santa Claus Since I was ahead of schedule due to skipped stops, I decided to stay a couple of days in North Pole since the camping was free. I thought I’d go see the Santa house and check the place out. I’m no fan of Christmas, but my daughter is, so I could potentially get […]
It has been a while, how are you all? Though a lot of circumstances have led to less riding and less time to write about what is going on with me, it definitely doesn’t mean nothing is happening! So, in the effort to keep you all up to speed on the happenings, I thought I

Anxiety The check arrived about 2:30 Thursday afternoon, and my BFG and I hit the road. That was a very long 450 miles, but my BFG is fun to talk to and we had a good time. We checked in to our hotel and I told him I wish they had sent me the owner’s
