Blow away those winter blues

Returning home today from a week in Florida and the Nomad went along courtesy of a friend's trailer.
Stayed on the East Coast side and took several rides up and down the coast. The hightlight was the "Daytona Loop" described on Motorcycle.com. The daytona strip, aride along the ocean, then through miles of Live Oaks with hanging moss. Now that will take your mind off winter!!

That picture reminds me of home (I am from Long Island). At least you got some warm weather riding. It's snowing right now.

Sounds like a great trip Mike.

By now you have arrived back in Southern Illinois -- hope the weather is treating you better than were are getting up here at the further northern border of Illinois. It was around 32 degrees last night. We should start seeing the end of that soon though.

I am going absolutely nuts so far from the weather.
