I took a little vaca

[Road King Cole]

Wife and I packed up the bike and rode to Florida and then Jamaica. OK, Florida MA (in the Berkshires) and Jamaica VT. Were only going to spend 2 nights, but extended it to 4. First real road trip on just the bike, you can pack just enough in the saddlebags. If we stayed any longer we would have needed to start swapping underwear! Maybe I will take the boat out tomorrow and take relatives out fishing to get that commitment over with.

OK, I know pictures...

Cruising up to mt greylock;


View on the way;


and here was the view from our motel room:


Proof I made it to Florida;


The pub at the motel:


We did do some rafting, instead of paying big bucks for the real pictures, I took pictures of the TV when they were displaying them;


Beer Stop! (albeit they do not make their own beer there)


Up in the hicks, no biker bars and actually very few bars at all. Had to improvise:


at least this one had a band...


And here's a video we made from our camera riding up to mt greylock. too bad the wind noise drives out the sound of the bike...
