Jerry and I had planned a September "loop" trip to Niagara Falls, the Adirondack Mtns and Lancaster, PA. We always take one long bike ride, yes, motorcycle, every year with our good friends, Randy and Janice. This year it was to be Niagara Falls. Anyway, Jerry's sister got married in a whirlwind courtship and wanted to take her honeymoon on their Goldwing ..... so now there are six!! Come with me as I re"ride" all the wonderful sights and sounds of our 2006 ride.

Day One

September 15, 2006

Me and Jerry through the lens of Nelda's camera.

Janice and Randy (hereafter referred to as J&R) rode up from their house in Starkville, Mississippi, to meet us at our house in Mount Olive. Jim and Nelda (J&N) were loaded and ready to go, so we hit the road around 4:00 in the afternoon. We had originally planned to leave early Saturday, but we thought that if we could get a head start by leaving on Friday afternoon, we could make Niagara a day earlier than planned. Geepers. Are we rocket scientist or what??

The miles clicked by as I listened to the XM Radio. The best invention since sliced bread. Country or 60's? Such a tough decision. We went around 250 miles before turning in for the night. That put us over the Tennessee/Kentucky line and we were pleased with ourselves. Now we could probably make Erie, Pennslyvania, before nightfall on Saturday.
