Photos from my ride 9-29-10

There is Irony in the first shot. As roads here become no longer necessary they are no longer maintained and a sign is placed next to it as a warning. I hope this warning is unnecessary.  The next is of my freedom, my way to loose myself, my way to think, my way to feel alive.

Got a tree, artistic ability, and the time? Someone did.

Never did find the gold at the end of the Rainbow

I awoke this morning

from a dream. I was in uniform, shiny black shoes and white pants, a blue uniform jacket and white hat. I was walking past caskets of the war dead but couldn't look at them as they represent the loss of real people and the loss was to real, to close.

So now I am awake and one of the first things that crossed my mind was "If I was twice the man I am,  would I still be only half the man I should be?"

Thanks to all who have served our country and helped to keep me safe and tears for all of you and your families if it didn't turn out for all the best. 

And now, once again, there is a tear in my eye.
