Breakfast was at Harry’s Roadhouse as stated earlier here. We got there later than normal and therefore Harry’s was very busy. We finally were seated at the counter. It worked for us, plus I got counter carat going with the lady sitting next to me and the staff working behind the counter.
We left there and drove through Madrid and just kept going. We had thought about stopping, but the parking there is tough. We turned off of NM Rte. 14 and headed toward Edgewood where we hit I-40.
We jumped off 40 on NM Rte. 41 and stopped for a break in Galisteo. Pretty little NM town, not too different from San Jose.
Once we mounted up and started out again, we headed for Eldorado and lunch at La Plancha de Eldorado. The first time I was there was with Catherine while Nina was in Chicago this past winter. I had always wanted to go back there with Nina and today it happened.
They had a killer brunch there. We both had different things and I have to say their cheese enchiladas are absolutely GREAT. We went home after that.
Today I stopped at SF H-D and find they were having a blood drive. Since I’ve never donated before, I figured now was the perfect time to donate. Questionnaire excluded me.
I did get to meet the channel 4 weatherliar, but I didn’t rip on him since we don’t watch channel 4. We watch channel 13 and since I have no clue if he sucks as bad as 13’s weatherliar, I left him alone. And besides, he was there pimping for the blood drive. I had to ask another biker who he was and he was surprised that I didn’t know him.
Oh well, I did get to SF H-D, but I never made it to AT&T or Chicago Dogs and I did have a nice ride. When I got home I washed the bike before parking it. I noticed I’m almost at 1600 miles already. Not too shabby.
Weather permitting, Nina is joining me on a ride to Madrid NM, an old mining town just south of Santa Fe. Breakfast at Harry’s Roadhouse and we’ll head south from there. Madrid morphed from mining, to almost ghost, to an arts destination. Many bikers head there for a destination day trip, they also have a bar.
I brought Erin to Belle this morning. Nina and I met at Dick’s Liquors for lunch so it was convenient.
Dick’s has the greatest lunch specials! I had salmon with a strawberry vinaigrette on a rice pilaf. It was great!
Nina had a Rueben so I gave her a bite of the salmon to let her see what she missed out on.
We are watching Tori’s little piss machines this weekend. yay. I’m going to start locking them out during the day and pray for an eagle or owl.
The ML pic is pretty much how she sits lately. She is so focused on destroying any old picture of her having fun with friends and family that I think she’s developed a permanent slouch at this point.
THE FIRST THREE MONTHS! Happy New Year, America!! Here is what happened on January 1, 2014:
Top Income Tax bracket went from 35% to 39.6%
Top Income Payroll Tax went from 37.4% to 52.2%
Capital Gains Tax went from 15% to 28%
Dividend Tax went from 15% to 39.6%
Estate Tax went from 0% to 55%
Remember this ‘fact;’ if you have any money, the Democrats want it! All these taxes were passed with only Democrat votes. Not one Republican voted to do these taxes. Remember this come election time. And make sure your friends and neighbors know this info too!
These taxes were all passed under the affordable care act, otherwise known as Obamacare.
