.........a day that will for ever live in the memory banks..

......and...a day that will make History in the tiny Northern Michigan town of Grayling..
...got some LES last night...Lake Effect Snow...was kinda depressing ...thought that ol man winter had finally turned his angry head...and was about to get mean...
....woke up this morning....peered out the window...and most everything was covered...in white...got some coffee...wandered into the bathroom to make pee pee...and happened to look out the window at the thermomater.....hmmmmmmm......43 degrees..

....got a shower...nother cup O joe....and did some thinkn.....43 degrees....sunny....December 1st....were usually inundated with more snow then I care to remember....but what little we got from the night before was now gone...and the roads were drying up nicely....so I had me a thought....why not break or make some kind a record in this tiny lil redneck town.....and ride out for coffee....problem was...and I knew this was gonna happen...for the first time since I moved here almost 6 years ago....I cancelled the insurance on the bike for the winter.....now...I was in a dilemma....lil devil on my right shoulder was jabbin that lil fork in my neck goin.....C mon !....whatta ya waitin for ?!??!?. ...Lets RIDEEEEEEEE !!!!!

. ....but....the lil angel on left shoudler was goin...I dunno Dave...you know how yer luck makes that ssssssssuuuuuuuckkkkiiinnnnng sound....just yer luck...some asshat with a cell phone is gonna take you out...and yer gonna sit there looken at yer baby all crumpled up on the ground...while yer trying to explain to some Sheriff how yer a "local"...and ya just coundt resist...just...one...moreeeee....ride.....

....but then I thought to myself...Dave...if it was 10 years ago...you wouldnt even be having these...apprehensions...and thoughts of bad karma.....you know what yer motto is....Roll The Dice !!
.....it was right about then that ..that lil devil jumped up and ran around my head and started kickn the crap outta that lil angel until he lost his balance and screamed alllllllll the way down to the floor...*SPLAT*..
.....and that lil devil came back around to his side...wiping his lil devil hands off ....grinned and said...
......Screw Him !!. . .....Lets RIDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !!!!

....and so we did..


....yep...this is definitely...My Kinda December.....weatherman said tonight that we could expect some ...lite lake effect Thursday into Friday...but that it could be .."mild"....Alllllllllll Next week !
