Nashville in the morning!












OK how great is this....I open the door to my room and the view directly across the street is the "HOOTERS" restaurant! LOL!



My first email today was from a friend who found this and immediately thought about me. As I read it .....I was totally shocked! You tell me what you think!


Virgo (August 23 - September 22)Your planet, Mercury, is being supported by dark lord Pluto, ruler of our unconscious minds. More than ever, you can use language to shine light into obscured areas of your imagination. You are now like the mythical Phoenix, a bird that was reborn from the ashes of the ruins of destruction. If you can visualize the creative forces of evolution at work, then whatever difficulties you have faced can be released.


Last night it rained cats and dogs for hours. We hit some wind and rain just prior to getting into TN. But we made it OK. I dropped Chuck off at the meeting place his family arraigned, filled up the van and then hit the road on my own. Now I am truly on my own, I can't say I am not nervous, it would be a lie that's for sure. Its exciting just as much as it is scary!

So of course I missed my exit for the motel and had to back track about 30 minutes. Apparently there are two Motel 6 locations here about 3 blocks apart. Of course I went to the first one I saw, it was the wrong one. I pulled in and there lined up all around the Motel 6 parking lot are literally a hundred motorcycles! I would like to have got a photo but was too dark and I was too tired! Amazing! So I find the right place and drove around the lot and pulled into a spot head first and broke the rule for trailer towing, know how to get out before you get in! I was too tired to mess with it, I registered and went to my room.
This morning there were a bunch of bikers here for a meeting, it was a group who were Vietnam and Desert Storm vets. A really cool guy, his road name when he rides is "SNAP", gave me a crash course and helped me to pull out the trailer and park it along the curb ! Once again, thanks to someone for lending a hand. Thanks Snap and have a safe trip back to Maryland with your buddies.

Well it's time to get moving and head out to face the day. It is bright and sunny and just a little chilly, but I can't wait to get out on the road. I am meeting a friend who lives here and were going to do some sight seeing.

See you all later!
