Terry,
That's what I love about riding too, I feel so much more part of the surrounding.
Any time you and the GF want to come up let me know. We'll make room. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] I asked Donna the other day if she'd be interested in heading down to Bama sometime. Sooner or later we'll be passing through. Then I can post pics from there too.

The same invitation is extended to you and Donna...I've got an extra bedroom and room in the basement for the bike. Any time...I've even got access to a nice lake house (my best friend) and there's plenty of room.
My best friend is a licensed Therapist...we've both laughed about how few bikers he ever sees in his office...the bike IS therapy for me...those rides like you just took are good for the soul....
