Check out the Blog Archives to read about our cross country motorcycle road trip from MA to CA in the summer of 2011. During that trip we attended the Annual 2011 National Women On Wheels® Ride-In in San Jose CA. Then we just rode. We traveled over 11,000 motorcycle miles in what ever direction we wanted to go for 61 days. We visited friends and family, saw the country, met some amazing people. We made memories we'll never forget. These memories are what THIS BLOG is made of! That was only the beginning. We've been traveling and riding and blogging every since then. Enjoy our stories while we make MORE memories worthy of posting here for your enjoyment.

To Ponder 2019

Time to ponder 2019 and what it has to bring. 
Cooper and I will do another solo trip together on the bike like we did in 2018. 
That trip was 3,200 miles in 13 days of camping and exploring while visiting some friends along the way. 


2019 will have good times and special people from beginning to end.
Watch our stories here as I do my best to document our best days with great pictures.

Wish We Lived Closer

It would be so good for all of us to live closer. 
It takes us nine hours to drive to NY for a visit with some of our favorite family members. 


Cooper is very happy with all of them. 
It won’t take long before we’re back. Couple more months. 

Cash I Cooper’s Main Man

Where ever Cash goes, Cooper is sure to be right behind him. 


Cooper has never been well socialized with other dogs. 


So visiting in NY is both exciting for Cooper and also stressful. 


By the time we leave, he is completely exhausted and so so happy.

Cooper And Colby

This is Colby. 


When I got Cooper he was only five years old. 
They’re both all grown up now. 
It’s so hard to believe!

When ever we visit in NY we are welcomed by our canine family as well as our human family.

It Was Snowing In NY

We were in NY for my grand daughter’s baby shower. 


He had snowed while we were there.  We didn’t have snow in Massachusetts. 


Cooper loves snow even if I don’t. 
For me, the best part about snow is watching Cooper play in it.

Happy Got Ya Day!

These pictures was taken on the anniversary of the date when I got Cooper 12 years ago.

  

I wished him a “Happy Got Ya Day”.   And so did everyone else

Matching Race Car

How perfect would it be for Cooper to get his own race car to match his hair?


Not this Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas to all who read our blog!

Christmas Time Memoriea From 2007


When Cooper was a puppy I made him his own Christmas stocking.



I stuffed it with good toys.



These pictures aren't great,





But they are treasured memories.



He's so cute as he opens his stocking for the first time all those years ago.

Sometimes It Just Feels Good


Did you ever just find something that felt good?


Cooper found a soft stick that just felt great to sink his teeth into.


He hasn't done this since this time either.


It's been four years.


Usually a dog who likes to chew will do it a lot.


But this one stick was the only one he ever chewed up like this.

Trouble with my blog

I guess now is a good chance to tell you about the trouble I’m having with my blog.   I can’t sign on the usual way any more. I can’t access my blog by way of computer at all. I can’t get customer support. I'm trying to manage a new post daily but its been very difficult. I’m hoping to find the help I need but until then I’m confined to managing the best I can by using my phone.  Please bare with me.  I’ll do my best!

2012 Ride In With Pam


Sometimes you look back on old pictures and you find someone who is no longer with us.


This is Pam.  She passed away a few years ago.


This was actually the last time Cooper and I saw her.  


We got to buy her lunch this day and we talked for a long time.  We feel good about that.

Ride In 2012 With Rebecca

That group of pictures I mentioned yesterday...


included these pictures of Cooper sitting at the welcome table with Becca.


I forgot to mention the ride in was in North Carolina.


Becca lives in Massachusetts with us though so Cooper knows her well.

Zip Lining in 2014


Wow!  This was a long time ago!!!


We went with a group of friends to New Hampshire for a weekend.


Most of the group went zip lining.


Cooper and I stayed on the ground 


and let the dare devils go do their thing.

Sleeps Through Anything

Sometimes you can just click pictures and he never moves a muscle.


He's out cold and nothing can cause him to stir.


Not even a crazy in love photographer who can't seem to get enough of this little guy.


Yup... that would be me.

Thanksgiving With Gramma


Cooper hasn't seen my mom in a while.  


She has been in and out of hospitals and nursing homes.


We had Thanksgiving at my house.


Cooper was happy to see his Gramma.


He wasted no time figuring out how to lay on her lap.


We had to use a pillow so he wouldn't bruise or scratch her legs but he was very happy with that.
