The Art of a Motorcycle Ride in Late May

Yesterday my car died.  It DIED.  My dad got a tow truck to bring it home for me when he went to town today.  Now it's sitting in the backyard as "lawn art."  You know, like those toilet bowls that have an arrangement of flowers growing out of it?  Yeah, like that.  (And I really saw that in the front yard of a person's house one time.  Not kidding.)  So today, because of my car's death, I was stranded.  I had wanted to go hiking, but instead I asked my Dad if we could go for a motorcycle ride.  And we rode all day, from 1pm- 7pm.  That's 6 hours!  But we did stop a flea market for about an hour, but the rest was pure riding.

So many things went through my mind as we rode today:

That's a pretty tree.  Wow, the sky is so big!  Is that country music that we are listening to?  I want to play this song on the guitar.  WOAH, BIG CURVE!!!  Wow, God, you are amazing.  What a beautiful world.  I want to write a magazine about small town life and tell people where great places to eat, camp and play are in Tennessee.  Is that horse rolling around on the ground?  My butt hurts.

Hahaha, but seriously,  I thought all of those things while riding today.  And now for a plethora of bike pictures!  I took them all on my camera phone and they are pretty clear considering that I took them on my camera phone.
