A little last minute shopping. Had preferred parking, walked nearly everywhere with peace of mind that my ‘Glide was safe here. Thank you Active Ride Shop Redlands for not discriminating against bikers!

The wife and I had the chance to ride to Church this morning!

We ride to church a lot for the Sunday evening service and for Wednesday night bible studies. But I hardly ever ride for Sunday school and Sunday morning worship service. Church is sacred and I believe in dressing appropriately in respect for the Lord.

But this morning I let the dog out and it was WARM. It is a over cast gloomy day and we had rain yesterday but I felt the need to ride. I asked the wife if she would mind if I rode to church this morning. Her reply was no as long as she was ridding with me! So we put on our jeans and boots, Harley shirts and leather jackets and got on the road. Traffic was very low and sadly attendance at church was also low. We have many families out of town and several that were out sick.

Thank you Lord for your son Jesus and for sending him to earth to die on the cross at Calvary that his blood was shed so a sinner like me could have eternal life.

Remember the reason for the season! Jesus

The greatest gift of all time is Free for the asking.

John 6-14
"I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Great day for riding today. Took PCH from Long Beach to San Clemente. Then the 5 down to the border. Turned around and came back up the 15, over Ortega, then the 5 and 91 to my first “stop” in Bellflower.
