Home again home again jiggety jog!

We are back from a wonderful vacation and already back in the swing of things...whatever THAT was! We had a FANTASTIC time with my parents and brother on our 2 week ride on our cycles to Yellowstone and back! It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. When you are on a motorcycle, you EXPERIENCE the ride with all of your senses. You smell the pines and water,you feel the cold rain and wind on your face!! You don't just ride in a "cage" protected from all these sensational spectacles! The ride up and back was just as breath taking as Yellowstone itself. Actually some of the places we went were better than!! We saw SO much diversity in not only the LAND we rode over, but in the PEOPLE we met! It is incredible to me that we get caught in the vacuum of our own little world and don't even realize what is out there!!We miss so much by being confined to our own priorities. People are strange, incredible and always have a story if we will only take time to listen and learn. The land we have in America is awesome and diverse, from 14,000 ft.above sea level to Tulsa Oklahoma, the beauty that was created by God is overwhelming! And all the while the Middle East is at war,Sudanese are being murdered,soldiers are being shot,people have life threatening illnesses...our world and lives are full of tragedies, but it is and CAN be full of beauty and wonder as well, if we will stop what we are doing long enough to see,hear,taste,smell and touch it.
p.s. check out the pics!
