Well I woke up refreshed from the Saturday ride. No riding on Sunday as I went to Van TX and helped a friend get ready for a garage sale this weekend. Did ride on Monday (99 temp) after work about 20 miles. Nice tune up ride. The silly cat and I went to her retreat on Sunday also. This retreat takes care of her when I leave for a couple of days for whatever reason. The retreat is approx 3 acres with ducks, rabbits, and birds in the yard and she watches from the windows. They also have 2 parrot type birds that fascinate her.

Work has been semi busy with lots of different help as we "lost" 5 technicians to the local police last Tuesday. Not much being said about the charges but I'm sure drugs are involved and futures and licenses are on the line.

Now for the new toy. It talks to you in the car and tells you where to go!!! I like setting a destination and then going a different way and making her say "recalculating" and then continue on my way. Now you all can guess in is a Garmin GPS which is just a toy because if I do not know my way around Dallas after 33 years (yes it is has been than long) or by using a map I should not be driving. Funny thing tho is that if you watch the screen it does not show the traffic in front of you - just the road - so one might run into the back of the person in front of you.

Mmmmmmm . . . "you might run into the back of the person in front of you." Have you experienced that already?
