Holiday Weekend Plans?
« on: May 23, 2008, 01:42:08 PM »
Other then honoring U.S. men and women who have died in military service, what do you have planned?





Remember all those that have served or are currently serving our nation.

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.” -- General George Patton

We are doing yard work on Saturday, going out Sunday night to celebrate our anniversary, and having a cookout on Monday.  Should be a good weekend!

ETA:  I even bought new outfits for my dogs for the Memorial Day holiday.  Pics to be posted soon.  Yes, I'm insane, I know.

I also just e-mailed it to a lot of people around here.

1981 CB750 with only 19k miles.  It needs some work (brakes) and it's been sitting since June, so I'm having it delivered.

It's a little dusty. 

Here's a picture of my last bike...



That one was ten years old and only had 10,000 miles on it when I bought it.  It was like driving a brand-new motorcycle.

Looks like it would be fun to take it for a ride on the Natchez Trace some Saturday.

I took my last bike to the Smoky Mountains and the Cumberland Gap.  I had it for two whole summers before someone in a Ford Festiva ran a red light and tore the front end off of it. 

I'd like to go to the beach.  I was thinking of riding down to Mobile next month.

I always hated the Festiva....but the good news is, you did not get killed!

I am packing my gear and cleaning my digs, pursuant to ending my current hitch, probably the last time I'll be on extended active duty, so it's a bittersweet time.  However, I live for the "Now," and this weekend "Now" means finishing all the packing today and then cleansing the Hinesville apartment of all traces of human habitation on Sunday and Monday so come 0900 Tuesday I can get it inspected, stop in at the office one last time, and drop off my cable box and DSL modem on the way out of town forever.  Leaving behind some great friends both on the military side and in the Savannah area, but going back to family and friends I've only had a chance to be with about nine months out of the last three years.

We're bbq'ing out in the back yard tomorrow, having a few neighbors and some of my former fellow workers over for ribs and beer.  Stocked up on the Corona, the pork ribs, and corn on the cob.  Then we've got to start packing as my wonderful wife Ginger and I are off to "foreign lands" next week for a week long vacation in Acapulo!!  Sun and golf -- ah, the good, semi-retired life.   :hyper:

Went to a BBQ yesterday at my sister's house. Played some Wii Mario Kart. That was fun.

Right now I'm watching NASCAR, eating some pizza, and chatting with y'all.

On the agenda for tomorrow is a run in the morning, chores, and relaxing. I don't go out the cemetary like my family used to do every year. Maybe I should do that too.

I've been so busy over the last few weeks with moving, my wife's baby stuff, and work... hadn't had time for much else.... including here. So, it's beer, barbeque, and baseball for this weekend until Tuesday.

We did it. Had a birthday party for my son which was essentially a nearly day long cookout for family too. Tomorrow is just going to be resting, schoolwork, and relaxing.
