Ride Like the Wind...

...I wasn't sure if everyone would be interested in reading about my motorcycle "adventures" or not, and I was undecided as to whether or not I should begin a new blog. For now, I will continue my bike adventures here. Hubby and I went on a ride today for about 1.5 hours. We rode to a nearby lake and dam. We love to go there in the car, but the experience by bike was completely different. Today is a bit overcast and it is looks as if there may be a storm trying to develop. Today the fragrances were a bit different for me, and the sights were a little bit different as well. The smell of rain assaulted my nostrils mixed with honey suckle and freshly turned earth. If only I could bottle that smell. What a comfort it is to know that there IS a higher power out there that truly does appreciate the finer things in life, and that feels us worthy enough to share in them as well. Call "him/her" what you will, "God, Allah, Buddah, Gaia, etc...." it is all the same. Agree with me or not it doesn't matter. What I experience defies naming. You name your baby, dog, cat, fish....how can you place a name on what defines EVERYTHING??? Anyway, I digress, I have taken a few pictures of my journey today. I hope you enjoy them. I really hate that I didn't get a snap shot of the Osprey?(I think) diving into the water for a fish, or the huge turkey hen that watched us as we drove by. I was too busy watching them in amazement. Life is certainly a blessing...
