In less than two hours, I am officially on a 3-week vacation - the longest I've been able to enjoy since I left the Navy 10 years ago. Ann and I are packing up the bikes and headed to the mountains of New Mexico and southern Colorado for a two week jaunt through the mountains, visiting with family and friends along the way.
We. Cannot. Wait.
We leave tomorrow morning at 5:00 a.m., but Ann was packed and had her bike loaded up and ready yesterday morning. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif This is her first multi-state trip on a motorcycle, and I can almost guarantee she won't sleep much tonight ... neither will I. I find I can barely hold a thought in my head.
I will endeavor to forget about every care in the world. No technology, no computers, no bills, no kids and no job. The Lovely Ann, me and the open road...
Pictures to follow...

Hope you have a great adventure. Sounds like alot of fun.
Since you are not taking any computer you will not read this till you get back, but enjoy every minuet of the time you are going to spend together. It is great when your spouse loves to ride as much as you do. We are lucky men to be sure.

I wish you two a great time. I never knew TC was such a romantic.
but enjoy every minuet of the time you are going to spend together.
I guess I'll follow suit. I hope you enjoy every dance too. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

I can relate.....the night before a multi day ride I feel like I did as a kid the night before Christmas.
When I pull out of the driveway I leave all my woriies behind...and usually a few things I forgot to bring! ;)

Ya'll have a great wonderful safe trip. I know when Ken and I take trips on the bikes it's so much fun when we stop for gas, food or for the night. So many things we'ver shared/experienced on the road...again have a great time.

When I first opened this thread, I thought maybe you were riding back up here for a Halibut Burger at Big Lake Bar and Grill....which my wife and I both happened to have enjoyed just yesterday.... http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/cool.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif. Ride safe and keep the dirty side down!
Have a great time, enjoy yourselves and get home safely.

Keep a check on roads in New Mexico as they are having some really bad fires. You might have to reroute if you aren't careful.
