Must be nice! Probably won't see that here in MD for a couple of months, and it probably won't be walking down the street unless she's filling up her car with gas!!

Going to be some time before that happens here. Only way I see that is going to the beach, that is months and 60 miles away. Oh well

Think your right, but then (except for snow, sleet, rain and temps in the teens) I try to ride year round. Been really nice recently, keep passing all these cars and trucks with Harley emblems plastered on their rear window. Didn't know Harley made cars and trucks?

Oh = forgot to post - really love the picture with the shepard. Brings loving fond memories of the one I used to have. Really miss mine (Oscar De Grouch) a lot.
