I'm on the road again. I'm off on a two week ride. Main goal this time is to get to Big Bend National Park in Big Bend Texas. No real reason for this except that I have never been there and the distance and travel frame should work out about right. I left this morning and took the interstate to get thru Georgia. Actually had very little traffic and getting thru Atlanta was a breeze. I saw an awful lot of blue flashing lights today but I never saw any in my rear view mirror. Obviously law enforcement was taking the holiday traffic seriously, and they were really out in force. Once I got past Auburn in Alabama, I took to the secondary roads and kept heading south and west to angle down towards Mobile, Alabama. Really love cruising along on the county roads that have very little traffic on them. Only problem is how the speedometer seems to just creep up on its own when I'm out there. Luckily for me, all the police cars seemed to be out on the major roads today. One note to add about the blog for this journey, I no longer have internet service for my tablet. That means that I will be at the mercy of free Wi-Fi service (good thing that I find McDonald's coffee acceptable), so I'm not sure when the posts will come thru, but I will try to continue to post once a day. I hope that everybody had a great Memorial Day, and maybe had a chance to reflect on the meaning of the day for a few minutes.
