Out and about!

This morning was a tad cool, mid 40's...

Yet, I braved it, and went for a ride around town.  Rode on a few familiar streets, thinking, "OK, I remember this... oh, look, I remember that!"  Then of course there was a few moments of, "WTF?  That wasn't there before!" And of course the, "Where did it go?!"

I marvel at how much has remained the same, yet how much has changed!  I lived in TUC for several years... attended the UofA... started out as a Paramedic here... 

As I saw the cloud band moving in, I retreated.  Didn't quite make it before the rain began...  So I stopped at a bar & grill.  A few bikes out front, figured a good place to stop and have lunch/wait out the storm.

Now, since I ride,  I can pull in almost anywhere like this, as long as it is on a bike, and be welcomed.  If I come in as a 'cager,' a brief discussion and explanation, is at hand, and usually, all is well.  Today was no exception!

I still left and rode "home" in the rain... and as I started up, I saw in my rearview, my peers...

Peace!
