RV’s are for the old more mature people that love homes on wheels so that we can cruise and kick back wherever we please so long as they have a few amenities that we can hook up to. Bill and I love riding bikes, but we also like some comfort and we have been looking at the motorhomes that we can carry our bike and scooter in.

Retirement is a time that should be enjoyed, but with the cost of gas it’s getting harder to travel around in any sort of comfort and see the country the way we want to. If we can find a used RV that will accommodate the bikes then we’ll be happy because we will be saving gas money by using the bikes to sight see when we stop.

Motorhomes have been the seniors ideal way of traveling and viewing the country for many years because it was always economical and even younger people with families have viewed it as an ideal solution for traveling and saving on the vacation hotel and motel bills. Having special time together by camping out a bit has always been viewed as an idyllic family time.

I checked the site above and I will keep my eyes open because we have to keep all our options open when looking for any type of  motor vehicle or RV type, especially if we are looking for bargains. Money is limited for some of us while others can afford brand new, which is great, but we prefer spending the money on bikes and the Grandkids. I do sincerely wish everyone a Happy 4th.

Are we humans ever happy with anything? I’m going by my own history and other humans that have shared different parts of my life span. Many times in my life I have wanted something very badly whether it was a toy, camera, a piece of clothing or whatever and then when I got it maybe I used it a couple of times and then decided I had to have something else pretty badly and wouldn’t be content until I got that also just so I could discard it too.

I have noticed this pattern in many people during my life time and have come to the conclusion that it’s more fun to anticipate than to actually possess. There are exceptions of course, like my computer which I use all the time and love and the same can be said of Bill. Not that I use him, but I certainly do love him and love to spend time with him and I can’t ever imagine wanting to discard him or getting tired of him.

I wanted my scooter pretty badly, but since I’ve mastered riding it I have decided I want a real motorcycle now so I can go faster and be a real cool Nana instead of a wuss that rides a sissy scooter. Better watch my mouth or typing rather because I’ve seen many men riding scooters and I certainly don’t want to offend them. Bill loves riding my little scooter because it’s like a toy to him after this monster.

I have gotten better with age though as far as learning to be content with what I have instead of always wanting something newer and better except for wanting the bike of course and I don’t count that. I see that as a new learning experience because I’ll have to take the test and safety course and learn how to shift gears, so there’s much for me to learn. I would love to ride the freeways with Bill and take a trip on our bikes, that would be so cool.

My son called over the weekend to let me know that Ethan David may be here a month early. He also said they had to give steroid shots to help develop the baby’s lungs or maybe I misunderstood that part. I’m not a very medically inclined person, but Bill’s daughter is a nurse and so is Eric’s wife and Bill thinks because his daughter is in the medical field that the knowledge rubbed off on him, so he tries to explain stuff to me.

I never really thought I would ever be a biological Nana so I’m really thrilled and can’t wait to see what he looks like or who he takes after. I have been gathering baby stuff together for our visit and I told him to call and let us know when she starts labor so we can be ready to jump in the car and go. It’s kind of hard to ask for vacation time when we don’t really know when the baby is going to be born.

I wanted to be there when Ethan is born, but just so long as he’s there and healthy when we get there I’ll be happy. I hate that they live so far away because I wont get to see him very much and watch him grow. I’m very happy that Jodie let me be a Nana to Nate so Nate will always have a special place in my heart. I’m pretty sure Eric will call me Granny to Ethan because that’s what he called his, but I like Nana and I don’t feel like a Granny.

I didn’t get to be Nana to Bill’s two Granddaughters because Chris’s Mom wanted to hold that title. I also didn’t want little people calling me by my first name so I picked my own name that would be easy for them to use, Ju-Ju. Jodie is also going to deliver a little girl August 19th by cesarean so we’ll be here for that. I was concerned that the two births were going to coincide, but it doesn’t look like that will occur, I would hate to miss either birth.

The list of bloggers below were nice enough to give me feed back on this template when I asked over the weekend and I really appreciate it so to thank them I thought it would be nice to list them all together in this post so everyone can see what nice people there really is that are involved with Entrecard. There was also Josh, but he didn’t leave a link that I could add here.

I’m afraid to mess with this theme anymore Josh and I’d follow your instructions, but I really don’t know where to put the fixed width or how to add it. Like I said I really do appreciate all the feedback. I visit these blogs when I’m dropping, but I don’t do much on the weekends. I usually read the recent posts of these bloggers and think that they all have great blogs. So Thanks for taking the time to be helpful to a fellow blogger.

Well, one thing I can say for sure is that I certainly admire technical people. I have spent the last week tearing this Wordpress theme apart and modifying it so it doesn’t look exactly like all the other ones on Entrecard and it wasn’t fricken easy. This whole theme is put together in tiny pieces and just like writing a piece of code if you have a dot or coma out of place you can spend hours looking for it. I am dead tired It’s almost 10:30 am and I still haven’t gone to bed.

Yea the weekend is here and I’m sure everyone has big plans, but if I don’t go take a nap I wont get to enjoy any of it. I hope those of you that usually drop here will let me know if this blog template looks okay, and works right. I’m sure I will have to do a lot of readjusting to make it okay. I like free stuff and it’s great when you can modify something any way you want as long as you leave the persons link that put it together in the first place.

I was like some of those men that throw the instructions away when putting something together and has about 50 things left over that should go somewhere, but at a certain point you just don’t care. I’m thinking I will have to have someone make one for me that knows what they are doing further down the line unless this one holds up. I’m really sorry for any of you guys that stopped by in between my testing and if it was screwed up I certainly do apologise.

Have a Great Weekend

When Bill and I go on vacation we always look for Harley shops because we like to get different t-shirts from the different states, but we also like to ride. We don’t tow ours so we normally look for a place to rent one for a couple days. I found EagleRiders online and they have locations all over the USA and in many other countries. Maybe one day we can try a vacation on the bike, but it gets kind of tiring at our age. Maybe a trike.

Since this is a well established chain I was looking to see if they have a franchise in Kentucky, but they don’t, bummer. We’re going down there when my Grandson is born in August so we’ll be looking for a bike to ride. My son rides, but he said he was going to sell his so we’ll have to call around. I was really hoping EagleRider was located there because we get lost easily.

They even set up motorcycle tours and that would have been perfect for us to ride in a group ( Bill likes a gang ) and not get lost in an area we don’t know, but we could have enjoyed the sights knowing we’d get back to see our Grandbaby all in one piece. I know different cities give guided tours on buses, but I had no idea that anyone actually did Motorcycle Tours. Now that’s a cool idea.

I’ve been looking for a small bike so Bill can teach me to shift gears and use a clutch because as much as I love my scooter I want more power and I would feel safer with a bigger wheel base. My scooter doesn’t take corners like a real bike so I have to be extra careful. I was just checking the different routes they offer and the package deals.

Motorcycles are our thing so this would be perfect for us when Bill retires, some people take cruises we like to ride and someday unless I die unexpectedly I’ll be an EagleRider. I did see that they also sell preowned bikes so I’ll check into that and see if they have a little Rebel. I’m getting anxious to learn now and if I knew how to change gears I could ride along with Bill and not have to worry about the traffic being too fast or me too slow.

 Besides renting motorcycles they have ATVs, dirt bikes, scooters, snowmobiles, and watercrafts. So that’s handy to know encase we visit someplace like Branson where they do have a shop and I have been wanting to go there for a long time. I rather doubt that we could afford a franchise, but that would be cool to open up in our hometown. I see they have one in DC, but that’s one city I have a hard time getting around in.

They even have one way rental specials where you can pick one up and drop it off in another state. Okay that’s enough from me I need some sleep.
