Gettin Lost

Post by Nomad »

Ive been exploring. Not too far but Ive found some treasures. Ive been riding my motorcycle every free moment. Usually I dont have a destination in mind I just hop on and go. Sometimes Ill look at a map and pick a direction.

West today !

Last weekend I headed south.

Theres a little town 5 minutes from me I didnt even know was there. Its kind of hidden away. I went through the town and on the other side a vista opened up.

Wide open lushness.

The roads were hilly and winding with a river running alongside it, bluffs on the other side, historical Indian sites along the way and the road was dotted with little towns that had church steeples and tiny markets with peple that smile at you.

I leaned way back and cruised that road all day long.

Thats what Ive been doing.

Its been really good for me. :)

It sounds great, my country is too small to get lost, but I had similar experience's cycling in Burgundy, France. So next week I'm off looking to get lost in Brittany, France. I may even get a couple of tickets to see one of the Rugby world cup matches thats going on over there. Incidentally your comment I leaned way back and cruised that road all day long. means in English translation that you were looking for trade, you should try 'cruising' around Clapham Common in London

That was a beautiful story. Touching...sweet. Young lives embarking on a journey, making memories. Only to be hacked up into pieces like so much cattle merely for being in the wrong place at the right time. Consequences are the stuff of life though.

Did you say you were riding past Indian reservations? I love those. Do you ever buy Mexican jumping beans? I used to buy those at the Indian reservations when I was a small child.
