I got to celebrate my niece's birthday the other day with family. The adults sat around and talked, the birthday girl, off to play with her cousin. Only saw her for presents and treats! Yet I still smiled...
I recalled some of my birthday parties... wondering who all the adults were, yet was happy to go off and play!
Phoenix had some stormy weather over the weekend. When I left the festivities, I was once again questioned by family regarding safety gear.. I smiled again!
A body, hugging a machine, traveling at 65, 70, maybe 75 mph or more... my leather jacket, chaps, even a helmet... it will make no difference.
I rode that night. I rode home. I rode on the freeways at speeds greater than 65 mph. I just rode...
Watched my windscreen get wet, saw the rain in my headlight, saw the dark patches on the streets. I never got wet!
It wasn't until I got on the streets, that I experienced the rain. And when I did...
I smiled again!
Happy Birthday Emma!
