Birmingham, AL

My friend Dale posted some pics of the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Birmingham, Alabama. He and I rode our motorcycles there over a 3 day weekend, the 6th through the 8th of August. We had a blast although it was hot (including heat index it was about 110 degrees every day). We rode blue highways there and back and really got to see t...he character of the places we were riding through. It was a trip well worth suffering the heat to take. This is one of the premier motorcycle museums in the world and well worth the visit for anyone into motorcycles.

And on to Charleston, SC

After visiting Asheville, NC on our vacation, we moved on to Charleston, South Carolina. This city is wonderful. Lots of historical stuff and welcoming people. We thought that Savannah, Georgia was our favorite southern city before visiting Charleston. Now Charleston is the winner. We even discussed what it would take ...to get us to move there (winning the lottery).

Trip to East Coast

Michelle and I took a vacation last month. We visited Ashville, North Carolina so we could see the Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands judged show. It filled two floors of the Asheville Convention Center and was awesome. Before a person could display there they had to be elected members of the Craft Guild. I bought a ...little hand made leather pouch to carry "possibles" in my pocket and Michelle bought a pair of ear rings. Together we bought a numbered print of cats to go in our dining room. This show will repeat in October and we plan on returning again then. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2070677&id=1528986072&ref=mf#!/album.php?id=1530695562&aid=2069811

I am going to try to incorporate my twits and my facebook posts (at least most of the ones that matter to me) into my blog just to try to add some permanence to this and make a (sort of journal) out of this blog. Maybe I will be my best reader...
