My Drive Home!

I-66 East... Just me and few thousand bikers.

I had a cool experience driving back from western Virginia this afternoon.

I entered the Interstate and was a quickly annoyed with how slow everyone was driving. (Come on, really. 60 mph in a 65 mph zone is too slow when you drive as much as I do) Well, I manuevered to get a look of what the traffic was like ahead and all I saw was a few motorcycles. I thought to myself 'self, what is the deal with the traffic?' Then as I crested the hill, I was suprised to see thousands of motorcycles. As far as I could see in front and behind me were motorcycles.

The group of motorcyclists I was near were all wearing normal motorcyclist's clothing and their bikes had small American and POW-MIA flags flying. Naturally, I was curious to know what was happening, so I turned on the trusty News Talk Radio to be informed of the traffic. Yes, they informed be to be cautious and watch for motorcyclist riding in DC.

It turns out every Memorial Day, the Rolling Thunder have a national ride to Washington DC to remember the POW-MIA. (check the link it goes to pictures on their website.)

What more can I say. An awesome experience to share the road with this group. I respect what they are doing and I am in total awe at the large numbers they bring in support.

My Entrance to the Legitimate Blogging Community

So I have given in to the 'blogger' craze.

After researching the website and being enticed by the new changes, I have joined the rank and file of thousands of "Blogger" members.

Honestly, my wife sold me on the idea by reminding me that we might not keep internet service with my current host.
SO, I needed to find a new home for my little blog.

I am pretty impressed with the changes and the ease of use that has been integrated. Especially, the audioblogger. In the next few posts I will explore the extensive usefulness of "Blogger."
