This Hotel Bar Is Full Of People The Piano Man Is Really Laying It Down The Old Bartender Is High As A Steeple So Why Tonight Should I Wear A Frown The Joint Is Jumping All Around Me And My Mood Is Really Not In Style Right Now The Blues Flock To Surround Me But I'll Break Out After While Yes I'm A Million Miles Away I'm Sailing Like Driftwood On A Windy Bay

This Summer has totally Kicked My A$$. I have about half of a July blog in the queue. But a few days before I planned an upload, that Nasty Phuc N Grim Reaper made its presents known. Pee Wee Herman passing away so rocked my world.
We are all aware of celebrities passing in threes but there were about a dozen deaths that side swiped my cheek bone. A number of friends , significant , consequential , & impactful folks shuffled off this mortal coil over the Summer. And I just wasn't properly prepared for the news coming down the pipe.
Plus, August has been difficult in general as I miss that damn Boy Dog so much. Still riding the first day of the month in his honor.
Still stepping with my best foot forward
BIKE NIGHT THEME:
Thrift Store, so I whipped these out for everyone.
I have so much to be thankful for. Like community members, creative outlets, health, and meaning full interactions.
All the Summer jobs were top shelf. Packed up with some highly entertaining cats, totally digging the house sitting jobs, and all while prioritizing my time for two and three day getaways.
Meeting new faces with every ride and I am so proud of my $1.99 shirt. Couldn't believe my luck as this shirt carries the old pearl style buttons. The Dude broke out Bill & Jan's jewelry for the occasion. Bring On Bike Night Baby

CYCLING:
Yup, still on a bike everyday. I mean, like why not??
And I Finally Accomplished The Feat Of Circling Mother Earth w/ 40,550 KMs
SPEAKING OF Mother Earth:
The desert sends off mega charges and our grand valley topped out at 82 strikes a minutes.
That's Right, 82 Strikes A Minute. Wanna waste some time , check out this sweet lightning (
HERE ) map website I camp out on during appropriate time frames. Be careful, highly addictive website.
And over the moon about the hurricane drifting into Florida on a Blue Moon , high tide patterns, and unreal warm gulf waters. What a beautiful recipe we have here my friends.
