This blog is basically just a collection of my "random thoughts". I must warn you, though. I have been told that "I write like I talk", so if you don't understand what you are reading... chances are, if you met me... I wouldn't make much sense to you! Feel free to comment if you care to. Or not. I'm good either way!

It Just Gets Better and Better!

I just found out that while we are visiting David's brother and his family in Virginia, we will be spending one of our days on a motorcycle trip through the Shenandoah National Park!!

David's brother has a motorcycle and he is going to borrow a friends motorcycle so that we will have two. It should be a fun day!

Here are some pics that I found online of the park...

While we are on our motorcycle adventure, the girls are exited because they will be spending the day with their cousins!! They aren't sure how they are going to spend the day, yet... but, they are talking about going to a big amusement park in Virginia called... Kings Dominion!! I can't help but be a little it jealous. I am a theme park and roller coaster fanatic!! Take a look at a few pics that I found online of the park...

This roller coaster is one that I saw on TV not too long ago. It is named after the famous NASCAR driver, Dale Earnhardt. He was known as "The Intimidator". Photo Source

Bucket List #67-69

#67 --- Learn how to drive a motorcycle --- Yes. This is something that I really DO want to learn how to do! Hubby has had one ever since I met him and I never wanted one until just within the past two years or so. I think it must have something to do with me getting "older" (the ugly word!!), because I am wanting to do crazy things like that! I have always been a "thrill-seeker" and have always enjoyed a good adrenalin rush, every now and then, though. I am not sure that Hubby is too "thrilled" with me following thru with this item on my Bucket List. I am not sure if it is the cost of it all -- the cost of getting a bike and the high cost of the lessons, as well --- or if it is that he is really afraid for me to do this. I don't know. I do love motorcycles and I find myself starting at them as I see them on the road. It IS something that I see myself doing someday! I want a bike like this, or similar to this one. This is a 2005 Kawasaki 500 LTD.


#68 --- Learn to drive a stick shift --- No. I don't know how to drive a "stick". My dad tried to teach me, way back when I was first learning to drive. My family only had one car as I was growing up, because my mom didn't know how to drive! At the time that I first started driving, we had an "automatic" car. But, then... right as I mastered that.... Daddy went and bought a car that had a "stick shift"!! He tried and tried to teach me, but I just couldn't get the hang of it. So..... he bought me my own AUTOMATIC car!!! YAY! But.... to this day.... even with Hubby having a truck with a "stick" --- I have never learned to drive one! I am afraid that there might come a day when I NEED to know how! So, this is why THIS is on my Bucket List.


#69 --- Learn how to knit and/or crochet --- I am not sure why this is on my Bucket List. I have tried and tried to learn to do this and can't do it! My fingers just won't work that way! Dtr. #1 can do it beautifully!! Nope! Not me! I give up on this one!
