Back to the internet

Finally, I'm alive and I've got an internet connection. Paul doesn't have the internet out there in Texas!

So, Wednesday wasn't much of a day anyway I rode about 550 miles through the oil fields of Texas. The weather was nothing special just really cloudy. Finally I got to the Ducati Dealer, Advanced Motorsports Ducati Alvarado. They were nice people. I had my oil changed and my chain lubed it was quick and easy. Then 40 or so miles later got to Paul's house. Went out to the Outback had dinner and relaxed for the evening. It was great to see him.

The four days in Texas were great. Thursday I got to see all of the pits Paul mines in Texas and I got to meet some great friends of Paul's the area. Friday Paul had a checkup so we went to Dallas for the afternoon only to have the car battery die. Spent that evening running around the area to get a new battery and put it in. Turns out it was still under warranty. Thank you NAPA. Saturday we ran errands. Stopped at the pits and stopped at the air field to see some great plans from ww1 and 2 I believe. They also had a Russian helicopter. Then we went out for a nice motorcycle ride. Paul has a couple of bikes so he let me take out the Big Dog Boxer. It was a great evening. Sunday was another great day but it was a little warm. We woke up relaxed a little then went over to one of Paul's pits to do some shooting. I had a a great time we shot some skeet, some rifles and a SA AR-15. Had a nice relaxing evening and got to bed early.

Today was yet another long day of riding out to Toomsuba Mississippi. It was nice for most of the day and progressively got cloudier as I headed into the areas that just got a ton of rain. There wasn't much to see on the trip but it sure was nice to see some evergreen trees. Louisiana wasn't all that impressive to me and had a real distinct odor to it. But as I moved into Mississippi and across the Mississippi River the scenery got nicer, the trees got larger and the road actually had some hills and turns in it. I'm now at KOA that doesn't have the greatest internet connection so I'll post pictures tomorrow. Unfortunately Paul has all of the pictures from Texas, but he said he'll send them up soon. Tomorrow its off to the Barber Motor-sports museum and then Deals Gap to spend the night at the Two Wheel inn. You get your own personal garage! Sorry for the wait. Be home soon.
