Friday: Rides to the Past and a Feast!

George had to pick up some parts for his tractor at a special store so we [he, Ace and I] rode through some beautiful, windy, mountain roads to get there.

Along the way we passed through many little old towns from the 1800s where people still dress up like people from the past.

Later it was time to prepare for the Feast!

Leg of Lamb



Miles [George's contractor] and his family & parents joined us for dinner that Jacqui and George cooked to perfection... A person could get used to living in this place... ^_^

I had fun at this end of the table entertaining the young girls.
Kept them laughing for most of the night.

It's now Saturday morning... George, Ace and I are headed to the mountains on a ride that will take us above 10,000 feet in elevation which means we leave in 80+ degree temps but have to bring winter-wear with us because where we are going there is still snow and cold temps.

I'll try and take some action shots from the bike today...

Stay Tuned!
