Heading Back To The Barn!

While in Dallas, we rode on one of the few days it didn't rain, to see a Buddy, that I went through school with, Johnny Myers. These are a couple of pix, of his bike! A real beauty!

Saturday, October 24 we made a ride to Waxahachie, for the Texas Country Reporter Festival. We rode to the festiaval with my cousin Randy, and his wife Nessa, Larry, Steve, and a couple of other friends, on our bikes! This is a unique festival, as it revolves around the TV news show, "Texas Country Reporter"! All the craftsmen visited during the year, by the show, are invited to display their crafts, and wears!

The festival is set up on the town square, in Waxahachie, a really neat, and quaint town! Luckily for us, it let up raining, for the day, so it was a great ride!

Decah, in front of the Old Courthouse, on the square, in Waxahachie. The statue is in memory of the Daughters of The Confederacy.

What a neat, old courthouse!

While at the festival, we found a display of old Cushman Scooters. What a classic!

While in Waxahachie, we met up with an Ol' high school buddy, Carl Copeland, and his girl friend Amy! I guess you could call this the Mesquite Connection!

Decah, Darryl, Carl, Amy, Randy, and Nessa.

The last week of October found us making our last ride, of the season! We trailered the bikes from Dallas to Oklahoma, since it was raining, again!

When we arrived in Oklahoma City, we were finally out of the rain! On Thursday morning, we mounted our trusty, steeds, and rode 500 miles to St Louis. The riding was really good! A little cool, but spectacular! We rode through the wine country, along Rte 50, and rte 64. The trees were exploding, in yellows, reds, orange, and greens! We arrived in St Louis, early Wednesday evening, and left for Kings Island, in Ohio, Thursday morning. We called a festival there, through the weekend, and left for St Louis, on Sunday. We hopped on our mounts, and rode back to Oklahoma City, on Monday. Again, a beautiful ride!

Tuesday morning, we loaded the bikes, and started our journey back home.

We stopped off at Turner Falls, in Oklahoma, to take in some more of the fall colors!

Beautiful fall colors, at Turner Falls, in Oklahoma!

What a beautiful day to travel!

Well, what a great summer, but, we are really ready to get back home, with all our winter friends!
