Just a Thought

There have been occassions (though few and far between) when I have a profound thought, a great idea, or even an enlightenment of unknown origin that I need to set down in words. I have needed an outlet for such thoughts and this seems to be it. If I amuse you, great. If I cause you to think, awesome. If I cause you to ponder, fantastic. If I cause you to change, I have completed the purpose given to me by my maker.

Our neighborhood version of "Bike Week!!"

Yep, it was a very unusual sight for our otherwise very quiet neighborhood. Not something you see every day. Glad I had my camera to capture just a snip of it for posterity!!

The guy on the right is Ken. I met him today when I saw an unusual sight with a whole bunch of people. They were hanging out just around the corner from where I live. Posted by Hello

Well, turns out that it was a 54th birthday party with a few intimate friends. Posted by Hello

Everywhere you looked there were bikes... motorcycles that is!! Posted by Hello

They lined up on both sides of the street. Posted by Hello

There sure was a bunch of them. Posted by Hello

Not the normal life of a quiet suburban neighborhood. But I think they had a great day! (Say Ken, If you found this blog... put in a comment so I know you were here. Posted by Hello

This is Ron (But he likes to be called Jim now). He and I grew up together. We lived just around the corner from one another for most of our younger years. Clear up till he went into the service. I hadn't seen him in 30 years almost, and one day I heard that he was living RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER from me. Well it turns out he and his wife live just two streets over. We had a long talk the other day, and I am going over to his house to meet his wife very soon. It's great to rekindle an old friendship. Posted by Hello

He's a good friend. Posted by Hello
