For anybody who doesn’t already know, I created this site for a class project. If it had not been for this class, I would never have even thought about putting all of this together. It’s just not something that I would normally do to fill my time.

But… Now that I have put words down on these pages, I can say that I have had a great time doing it. It has allowed me to explore a creative side of myself that I have never really looked at. Do I think that I’m the next great copy writer in line for a position at Yahoo? No.

Do I think that I am going to try to work this site into something that is going to put a couple extra pennies in my pocket? No.

Do I think I have found a new, fun, creative outlet where I can spend some time talking about something that I really love? ABSOLUTELY!

So, to answer the question that I posed to start this post- "where do we go from here?" I don’t know where you are going, but tomorrow I plan to head to Haymarket, Va. where my wife and I will join in on the Officer Down Memorial Page Ride (www.officerdownmemorialride.com) the first thing Saturday morning. I plan to take a few pictures, then come home and share them with all of you while I talk about what a great time we had.

After that, on May 1st I plan on riding my bike up to Burlington, Vt. I’ll spend a few days riding around northern Vt. then shoot across to upstate NY to meet up with an old Army buddy. Then maybe down to the Poconos to meet up with another old Army buddy on my way home. Once I get back, count on me letting you all know how that went.

Can I promise that I’ll keep this up forever? No, I can’t make that promise. Do I want to? Yes, I do. I’ll tell you one thing, the more feedback I get, the longer I’ll keep going. As long as I feel like I have somebody who is listening, I’ll keep talking. Join in with me and we’ll travel many miles together.

So, as I’ve said before, “Come on—climb up on the back seat, or saddle up next to me, and let’s hit the road. The highway is calling and there are plenty of miles of open road ahead of us.”
