I keep trying to drag out these summer days, but it's not quite working out for me. I need more vacation time...
I hit the road a couple of days back to deliver some newly recovered photos of my cousin's son's birthday party. Three months is a little long for them to wait to get the photos, but they were quite happy and surprised to get them. I logged over 200 Km on a day that started off scorching hot, but slowly turned in to a hell of a lightning storm. It was a beautiful ride down to Oromocto and it was still a gorgeous day once the black clouds started rolling in. I got sprinkled on a bit, but managed to ride out of it and never saw water again until later that night during the storm. I stuffed my camera in the saddle bag, but as usual I never stopped for any photos. I love snapping pictures, but I hate interrupting my ride. Once I'm moving I just don't want to stop. Hell, even pulling into the parking lot after a days ride is tough to do.
In other news, me and Joey celebrated our 7th anniversary this week. Wow...7 years. Where does the time go. Most times I wonder how she even puts up with me. :)

Well, another year and I still have this blog running. I think that's a record for me. Nothing sappy on this anniversary, but I am a little sad that I haven't been able to get Selene on the road yet. Seems like this winter is trying to hang on as long as possible.
Seeing as I can't ride, I've been hibernating mostly and geeking out when not hibernating. I don't mention much about my regular life on here, but suffice to say I'm a gamer and computer geek. When winter comes, I have lots to keep me occupied. I've beaten several games that I recently purchased and I'm currently building a new computer for myself.
My chapter of the CMC (Canadian Motorcycle Cruisers) is still running and I'm hoping to get a stronger membership this coming season. It will take some doing on my part. I'm not much of a social animal, so I'm taking this as a test of myself. I want to see if I can do this and it would be nice to get a strong group of people to ride with. I'll definitely have to get out to some of the events in New Brunswick so I can start getting the word out about CMC.
Also, I don't know if I mentioned it, but I'm now the Provincial Officer for New Brunswick. That means that I have three chapters to keep an eye on. Talk about testing myself...lol.
So, here's to another year, upcoming warm weather and just enjoying the ride while we can!
