J.B.

I'm late to the party, and you always arrive before the host has put out the horsd'ouevres.

Just so you know I am appreciative of the words you write. I love the early days and traveling pieces. Now I'm locked in place by my my feet and legs, but that wasn't always so.

I read your words slowly, letting them melt in my mind like candy. I can see the prairie grasses, and hear the speeding wind rushing past my ears.

I'm glad you kept a firm hold on those grips, or-else you might not be here today to share your experience. All of your musings are loved by me, but none more than the early Jim Bob stories.

Thank you, and please keep up the great work.

Always appreciate your thoughtful comments. And I don't intend to quit; I lived a bit and have stories to tell. The question is time, but I've been cranking 'em out for over two years, now, twice a week, so seems unlikely I'll stop. I like the early motorcycling and hitchhiking stuff, too. I had some great times in my youth, hell, as an older guy, too. So, there's no shortage of material. - JB

Your story is a ride in itself, taking us both to memories of past rides. What I used to like, the speed, now I’ve throttled back and enjoyed a more leisurely pace. I’ve been so fortuned in such travels. I look forward to more miles ahead.

There will likely be a ride leaving westbound the second week of September. But it is way westbound. And it would only be better if'n you were along.
