I mentioned in the bitch of the day thread that I had washed the scooter yesterday evening, and then it rained last night. It was still spittin' when I suited up to ride to Marshall Field this morning. On the way, I think I got a little taste of that which Don endured Sunday evening on his way back to Joplin........no sooner had I turned onto I-70, it came up a BAD cloud. WOW! And my back tire isn't the greatest right now. Thought I was hydroplaning a few times. Now get this. I'm tooling down I-70 in a real turd floatin' downpour, I round the bend, Marshall Field comes into view...........and our Soldiers are out there doing PT...........running in the pouring rain. Like we always said when I was in the Army, "If it aint rainin', it aint trainin'! God Bless those kids. I remember those days........PT in the rain.........probably why I haven't run a step since I retired.
We had a REALLY great day here. WOW! I keep wondering how this trip just keeps getting better and better, but I've stopped that and accepted the fact that I am very blessed to be where I am doing what I'm doing right now. You gotta LOVE IT!

It is supposed to rain again tonight, but I couldn't help myself. I had to at least spray off the scooter, wipe her down, and cover her up. Just doesn't seem right to put her to bed dirty.
