Great Trip in Liberal Country
The sign in front of a Vermont hardware store read:
"We Fixed Wall Street in a Weekend, Why Can't We Fix Health Care?" I knew I was in Liberal Country! We had a great trip, some 1800 miles through some beautiful country. We met at Port Jervis, NY, and rode along the Catskill State Park as we backroaded our way up to Woodstock, VT, through the Green Mountain National Forest. Beautiful country! The next day took us through New Hampshire, where we rode the Kancamagus Hwy. What a beautiful ride. The White Mountains were a great backdrop to the ups and downs of this road. Thanks to whoever recommended the Kancamagus Highway. It was well worth the detour! We worked our way over to Booth Bay Harbor and spent the night. We'd planned to go to Bar Harbor, but one of the Harleys needed a 5000 mile service. That cost us a few hours. The next day saw us working our way down the Maine coast, stopping at Kennebunkport to view the Bush estate. Very nice layout. We got to my brother Tom's house in Hopkintown, MA, and spent the night. Yesterday we road the 522 miles from Hopkintown to Alexandria. Rain the whole way. Absolutely miserable motorcycle weather. But, we made it. This morning Robert, another brother, took off for Winston Salem, NC. Altogether a great ride with no mishaps. Next year will be Kentucky, some eastern Tennessee, western North Carolina, including the Dragon's Tail. Can't wait! -- John H "BEND OVER - The 'change' is coming!" |

Our friends from Holland want to head up to Nova Scotia and see Maine on the way. -- John H |

Now, if you would have driven your BOAT 1800 miles....THAT would be something to talk about. The above story is off-topic ****. Post it in alt.cheesymotorcycles. |
