Rolling again Mt Rainier, WA
Savoring the moments with each mile with an incredible handling rig, Mt Rainiers breathtaking beauty, snow in July, incredible weather, great company, a happy Spirit what more would I ask for! I must have done something right to deserve all this. What an accomplishment on Andys part to have spend unselfishly so many hours reconstructing the rig from ground up There is Karma, I cannot ignore it. It makes me await the future with excitement as the times to come can only be filled with the great pictures of a life that can only have more positive aspects

Just like a maiden voyage. WA
No having my usual Internet connection has been enjoyable seems like we have much more time a double edge sword however the jury is still out. This feels as part II of the Journey everything has been fixed redone realigned I just wish I was more mechanically inclined as I have, it seems like, done my share of damage and ill repairs
The sights are incredible camping by ourselves only silence only the birds in concert

More local riding and stuff WA
The word on everyones mind is HOT 104 degrees today uncomfortable after being used to some cool weather. Have to watch Spirit closely, stay under cover or keep moving. After a day at Dauntless, having the sidecars disc brake reworked on, great results by the way, courtesy of Jay, we even went up the pass to I thought lay on the snow and cool off. But no more snow! All has melted, except on the peaks of course.

Mt St Helen weekend WA (part I)
What a coincidence to be on the same route and destination as the Northwestern Moto Guzzi riders we end up camping close by and enjoying their food and company Learned a couple cooking tips after all these years a ride to Mt St Helen
Today however I have written some thoughts about Life and this Journey following some interesting conversations with other riders tomorrow will be about the weekend all on the [URL="http://www.theoasisofmysoul.com/"]website[/URL]. Lets think about this as a two part to Mt St Helen

Up Mt St Helen WA (part II)
Does not seem that I can write it all in one page or so too many pictures also It was a great weekend being close by the Northwest Guzzi riders a great and kind group of riders After all, I was the outsider!
I will leave my feelings toward Mt St Helen for the next time eerie transcending deep thoughts ground zero of a 9/11 with Mother Nature responsible for such destruction and taking so many lives
In the meantime you can check out how to make an omelet in a ziplock bag and the sights of this Tropical like forest we have been in[URL="http://theoasisofmysoul.com/?p=152"] all on the website[/URL].

Seeing Mt St Helen is believing WA
We finally have made it to the Olympic Peninsula which will start riding tomorrow seems to be a lot of riders going around most heavily packed must be a destination
But today is about the last day up Mt St Helen I promise this is the end of it with the salmon and a little dish of my own a favorite that I have been craving since I left Georgia

Lake Cushman and back... WA

Lake Cushman and back WA
Miles and miles of logging roads to ride around here, we did some with Jim for most of the day as the rain was on and off sparing us a bit.
It is relaxed laid back not much of a choice as the rain gear never dries out. Better days are in the forecast to ride on the other side of the Peninsula ans see the Ocean again.
The rig is doing great, solid, and as Jim rides an identical one we took some time to inspect each others ride
There is an oyster Farm just across the street we had some and more, all on the [URL="http://www.theoasisofmysoul.com/"]website[/URL].
You be well send us some sunshine.

The Olympic Peninsula loop... WA

The Olympic Peninsula loop WA
A long riding day for us considering we stop often for Spirit you know and what a great day it was! With the windshield removed I am still amazed at the difference in the handling, speeds and gas mileage
The loop is awesome and I do now understand why so many bikes pass by here never to be seen backtracking. Beautiful coastline, Indian Reservation little town, friendly people how can they not be when they see Spirit wearing his Doggles
I even made an illegal U turn right on 101, never seeing the Ranger parked across the road decided I better have an excuse and ask her for some phony directions before getting a ticket she was laughing her head off when she saw him!!! Spirit the savior not a word about the U turn!
And much more of this great day on the[URL="http://www.theoasisofmysoul.com/"] website[/URL]

The road to Neah Bay and more WA
What a day! How come many had told me to skip 112 to Neah Bay when I find it one of the most picturesque and challenging road on the Peninsula? Trying to keep it a secret?
Some sand sculptures in Port Angeles and the best meet? Zak and Duchesse 3 years on the road this is when one can say a picture is worth a thousand words.
Breakfast with some great Adv Riders before their 3 to 4 day take off for a big circle of the land here what else? Just have to see it all in the [URL="http://www.theoasisofmysoul.com/"]website[/URL]
Be well
