Our Motorcycle Trip

Since Tim and I missed going away a few weeks ago, we decided to participate in a Police Memorial Run this last weekend that wasn't too far away from us. We rode over with two other guys who are in Tim's motorcycle club on Friday and then participated in the run on Saturday. I don't know how many bikes participated, but I heard anywhere from 2000-5000. It was amazing to see all those bikes lined up and the whole freeway was closed off for the run so it was just motorcycles as far as you could see in front and in back of you. I tried to get some good pictures, but it is really hard to take pictures when you are riding and can't really see through the LCD screen. It was a really beautiful ride and then afterwards there was a big barbeque with all kinds of vendors of people selling things.


Dinner was a bucket of seafood....yum

Bikes leaving....all you could see were bikes in front and in back of you

That night we went to visit our friends that we tailgate with for football games(they also own the parents of Duncan) and had dinner and stayed the night with them. We made plans to go to the first game of the year in just a few weeks. I can't believe that football season starts in just a couple of weeks! To me, that is the beginning of the holiday season with all of the birthdays and holidays we celebrate in the fall through Christmastime.

Yesterday I spent the whole day catching up....unpacking, cleaning up, laundry. Why does it seem like when you leave for a weekend, it will take the whole week just to catch up? Today is Jenna's birthday so I will take her for her birthday lunch and to go see "Mamma Mia" and tonight I am doing my annual "Pride and Prejudice" night (yes, we watch the 5 hour version!) with friends. Tim isn't home so we will do Jenna's birthday dinner later another night.
