Default Finally!!!!!!!

The sun was shining, and the temps hit 60, so you know what that means, yeah l got the old girl out for a spin. Lots of anti skid still around, and lots of snow melt flowing on the roads. But YEEEEEHHHHHHAAA! Got in what I will consider my first "real ride" of the year.

PMS is gone for the day, but we are expecting up to 4" of that nasty white stuff tomorrow night.

Bet it felt good, too! I'm at a hotel in Monroeville for a few days. A bunch of 'em out over here today. Getting the fever myself, but I'd like to see a good rain first, and get everything off the roads.

I am heading out that way tomorrow, actually to Pittsburgh for work. I was up your way last fall, I went to check out the little Grand Canyon.

Rode to the beach Sunday. Sunny and 75. Maybe spring is finally coming. The pollen says it is anyway.

Supposed to become cold again tonight, with light snow on Thursday. But today, it was great for riding. Got mine out also, and rode it for an hour or two.

It was wonderful! Fell in love with that big ole gal once again. ;-)

I'm gettin' outta here tomorrow! Turnpike to Bedford & then up. Should be before it snows. Been at Residence Inn, down past Monroeville Mall, behind Sheetz. You should head up 219 sometime & check out Kinzua Bridge & Kinzua Dam. On route 6, up near Kane. Not a bad ride for you. Also, go check out the elk in Benezette.
