MY LATEST OBSESSION

Anyone who knows me will laugh about my obsessions. I get stuck on an idea and I don't stop until every detail is complete. Not the best trait but it is how I am wired. This motor scooter is my transportation now that we have one car. It finally warmed up enough to ride comfortably but mornings are still chilly.

I am going camping about 100 miles south of here with a bunch of sober guys. They are avid fishermen and I am trying to find a retirement hobby. I plan to pack my bicycle camping gear and a few extra creature comforts and take the back roads and trails to the camp.

This is only a temporary distraction from the bicycle. I have had a hip issue that is now healed. I have had major dental work, a small surgery to remove a mole and a physical so I'm good to go.

Tonight in a group I attend we talked about being a talker or a doer. I learned this from a very influential person in my life. It was expected of me that when I said I would do something I would without fail do what I said I would do. I am grateful for this instruction because I became a better man.

I will continue my training but right now I'm having a blast riding this 100+ mpg distraction.
