Sometime, like most of us, I take my life for granted and how fortunate I am. We overlook the small things that create so much happiness in our lives. Look at this:Every morning I get up to put the coffee pot on, look out my front window and this is the view I’m given. What [...]
After a week up north on business, I made the Goldwing trip back to Selma. It was a glorious day to ride and the entire trip only took ten hours. The only down side was a summons in Virginia for speeding. This appears to be quite distasteful as it will mean a trip back to [...]
It been a hectic week of taking care of business back here while the roomie swelters away in Selma. But there was a bit of a reprieve last evening as I was able to take in some MLB in the nations premier park–PNC. The New York Yankees came to Pittsburgh this week for a three [...]
I’m usually dispensing information or doling out advice from the “bully pulpit”, as Theodore Roosevelt called it. However, this time I”m asking for some.

Coupled with that, 12% of this year’s corn crop will has been devastated by the Midwest flooding. How does this effect fuel prices? Gasoline must have a certain amount of ethanol prior [...]
The is where I’m going to write a generic post without putting anything into Word and then reposting it. I’m trying to write and much fun stuff to read but it’s 10 after 1 in the AM and I’m beat from the day. I spent a total of 12+ hours trying to get this damn [...]
The weekend over and most of the world back to the week’s normalcy. Another Father’s Day has come and gone. Now there’s a day I don’t give much thought to. My own father passed some twenty-seven years ago, while I was still in my 20’s. Funny how it doesn’t seem that long as thoughts of [...]
It’s been twelve weeks since we hit the road and headed south from the overcast skies of southwestern Pennsylvania. Motoring in our Revolution has been more than a trying experience to say the least.
