Featured Sturgis Trip On My (non) Triumph

Oh, yes, Annie was thrilled when we walked through the door! That said, she did great while we were gone with her new dog sitter. The dog sitter I've had for 12 years is moving to Washington in a couple of weeks. We did a "trial run" overnighter with the new dog sitter a couple of weeks before heading to Sturgis which made us all (including Annie!) feel much more comfortable. Our new gal works remotely via computer so she could spend most of the day with Annie. It's always nice to know that someone is also sitting our house in addition to our dog, too. Thanks for the nice comment re. the thread, Vulpes. Glad you enjoyed it.

 

You're welcome, Cyborgbot! Get out on that bike and do a trip--life's too short to simply think about it! What's the thread you referenced? I'd like to check that one out.

 

Thanks, Billy! I'll plan to share photos and stories from our October Las Vegas trip, too.

 

Thanks, Joe! The stories nearly wrote themselves and there were so many great photo ops. I took all those pics with my iPhone. I was thinking I should have brought what I call my "big daddy camera" ( a nice Canon DSLR) with me but didn't want to haul it around for that many days and miles. Shoulda, woulda, coulda.... Maybe I'll take the Canon to Vegas!

 

Thanks, Bikerman! You are so right about having some fantastic memories. I I really enjoyed sharing my trip with you guys. In a way it made me notice some things even more knowing that I wanted to share the experience with the forum. Vegas Bike Fest, here we come!

 

Thanks, Dartplayer! I appreciate your feedback. Yes, back to reality--part of which is planning our next adventure! And I really do enjoy the planning and the anticipation as well as the trips themselves. Speaking of "well documented with facts", that was fun for me. I learned some new things about places on our trip, too.

 

I may just take you up on that offer to go there for a forum meet up, DD! Thanks for your positive feedback and comments on my trip writeup. I truly enjoyed sharing our adventures with words and pictures. The only thing that would have been better is if you'd all been on the ride and trip with me!

 

Hi there, Foxy1. Glad you landed on this thread that you you enjoyed it! It was my pleasure to write it and to share our adventures in words and photos. Thanks for your positive response!

 

What a terrific jacket, @Bikerman! Thanks for sharing the photos of it. Very cool.

 

Wow!! That is truly an amazing jacket, Bikerman!! What's cool is I'm sure there are a lot of stories that it can get started.....
