If you don’t want to read about me and my Harley, move on. I’ve put on over 10,000 miles since May 1st. Two trips helped me along on that figure, the first to visit Mom in Michigan and the second was a short 1000 mile trip to Silver City and Pinetop Arizona and back. Add to all that, I’ve been using the bike to run errands that don’t require a truck to handle.

Yesterday I hosted a breakfast for chapter members and I buy for one lucky member. These have proven popular and generally lead to a ride afterwards. Yesterday’s ride led to a gun shop and then to lunch for Jim G. and myself. While I really don’t need a new gun, I still like to check out the inventory and fondle any new models. I did fondle the new Glock 10mm, a very big piece of firepower. Not a concealed carry item for sure. I also inquired about the S&W 686-7, a revolver with a surprise extra shot.

Leaving RIBS, we headed through Madrid and Jim and I caught several tourists taking pictures of us, something that’s pretty normal in Madrid. The movie Wild Hogs was filmed there and it turned out to do more for tourism there than any chamber of commerce could.

Today is another Harley day. I’m heading to the dealership as soon as I finish this piece and helping out with an open house event there. It should be fun and I get points for being there.

Life is good and Harley helps make it so. Peace!
