Excuses, and new trips.

Sorry, guess I was too anxious in my previous post.  We reserve the right to change our minds, and exercise that right frequently.  Sis is really opposed to large gatherings of people, much more opposed than I realized.  She was going to Nashville because I said I wanted to.  When I cancelled, she was a very happy camper.  So, no more rally's.

We were also going to ride to Maine, but I changed our mode of transportation the night before we left, and we took the truck.  Reason, it was too damn hot in Florida, Georgia, and the Carolina's.  Above 100 most of every afternoon, and I didn't feel that at our age we were up to riding in that kind of heat.  However, when we were driving along the Skyline drive I was sure sorry we weren't on the bike.  Oh well.

A week from tomorrow we leave for Cumming to visit our daughter, and my brother and his family.  Have some things to take up for our niece, Megan.  A couple of days there, then we're off.  We think to Cherokee, NC or maybe Bryson City just down the road.  Ride the mountains and see the sites in western NC then head to the coast and follow small country roads back to Florida.  We are both really looking forward to this trip.  The weather has cooled and we're excited.

Drop by and see how we make out.  I hope to post some pictures of the leaves changing in NC.

Cheers,

Mike & Sis
