Well, Liz, Cathy and TJ had the margaritas. I stuck with Sprite for this one. TJ caught a few waves at the beach even though there was hardly anything to catch. Then we went back to Liz's where Cathy took control as chef. She and Liz made this awesome bruschetta ...

... since my inclination is to go faster than I should, so i pulled off and got a room. at 200pm local time. Today is my day off I guess. I will try again tomorrow. If its still bad weather i'm outta here and heading to SC. Oh, i gotta say after 700 odd miles with the cramp buster, i'm sold on that thing! It makes a huge difference! my hand still hurts but mostly from the previous days' ride.

see ya on the road tomorrow, hopefully.

... rounding the top of hill after hill and there was NOTHING. This is HILL COUNTRY, people! Finally, I made it to Ozona TX and was able to fill up...now i know i can go more than 260 miles on one tank if I have to.

It was a long day of interstate riding; i got on at Fort Stockton TX and went all the way past the Astrodome. Its HUGE. When i got to my aunt and uncles, she insisted that I park my bike in their barn instead of the ...

... Beach. It’s a relatively small sand bank community just off the Florida pan-handle in the Gulf of Mexico. I won’t dwell on the bus trip but I will remind you that talking on a mobile phone while driving is legal in this country, that goes for reading birthday cards and looking at photographs whilst engaged in conversation with the person sitting behind him.

I met my good friend Mark in Gulf Shores to mark the bookend of my trip. We had a great time with his family doing the normal Gulf Shores things like lots of fishing, talking and whatnot. I did get a few pictures here, but at this ...

We decided to go back to the beach early. Invited Son and family to go. They took us up on
it. They will be going to school and our son will be in training as he is a rookie firefighter. So, it will be lots of learning and commitment for them when they get back. We could not get a bigger condo at this late a date. So, we decided to make do and make memories. The weather ...

... I can attack this story chronologically. I drove through Birmingham and was sorely dissappointed. I don't know why. For some reason I guess I was expecting there to be someting noteworthy there, though I knew there wouldn't be. Basically, there are a few modern buildings between a lot of run down shacks from the turn of the century. The problem is that people still use the shacks as if they are structurally and aesthetically acceptable. The city itself is ...
