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.

FaceBook Memories 2 Field Of Honor

These pictures come up all the time on my FaceBook Memories.


Leave it to Cooper to find the camera and pose all on his own.

FaceBook Memories 1

 I'm going to post pictures that have come up in my FaceBook memories.


Some of them I don't even remember where we were.  Like this one.  It's a great picture of Cooper on my bike but, darned if I know where we were.

Visiting The Neighbors


Every day when I let Cooper out to pee he goes to check on our chickens.  


He watched them grow from fluffy babies to full feathered birds.


These were about 5 weeks old when this was taken.

A Ride Before Surgery 2 Video

I keep my phone in a phone mount on my handle bar so it's hard to get a good angle.  I leaned sideways trying to get Cooper in view.


I was able to get him to come to the side so I could get my arm around him.  Not a great shot but it made me laugh.

A Ride Before Another Surgery 1

Our last ride was before our car accident in October '19.


I was concerned he wouldn't want to go because he's very nervous in the car.


I was worried about nothing.  


It makes sense that he's afraid of cars now after being in two car accidents with me.


I'm so lucky he considers the bike totally different from the car.


You can't see his face but you can see the poof of his hair behind my shoulder.


He didn't lay down much.  His nose was in the air the whole ride. It was just a short ride but it was all we needed before I had to have surgery again.

Perfectly American!

A little kid showed up at bike night with a little toy motorcycle and his father put it in the line up with the other bikes for a picture.


It was so cute to see the boys excitement.

He was happy to let me take a picture of Cooper with his bike.  I really love the patriotic look of this.  Red and white flowers, red bike, blue and white Cooper.
Perfectly American!

Rockin' The Cool Hat

Some of these posts include pictures from a few years ago.  


I've been laid up after my car accident since October.  


Eight months now, we've been in the house side by side without much happening. 


So now we remember our good memories and retell some stories.  


Like this memory of my cute boy wearing my friend's hat.


He has so much personality.

The Tree




This is Cooper's tree where he likes to pee when we're at work.








I call it his news tree because it's where all the other dogs pee and they also sniff like crazy as if getting news from all the other dogs.




He also likes this patch of leaves where apparently the other dogs must also pee.

Happy At Work

This is Cooper's favorite place to sit at work.


Right next to me where he can look out the window.


He can also see through the rest of the house so not much can escape his view.

Chill

Summer is here for sure.  This is the look of an over heated Cooper who came inside to cool off.


He really appreciates air conditioning.

Baby Chickens Get Out Of The Box

Look what happened when I cleaned out the chickens.














Brave babies.  They were only about 3 weeks old but they got up there by themselves.






Cooper was really concerned about them.


He seemed to want to make them go back in the box where they were safe.


He didn't take his eyes off them till they were all back in the box.

Half Off The Chair

I was going through some things and put a bag together for my kids to take.  Cooper climbed on the pile on top of the chair and laid across the bag.


He's so funny to slide half way off the chair to cover the bag.

A Visit From Sara

This is Sara.


She lived with us for a couple of years.


Cooper loves her as you can see.


It's been a long time since Cooper has seen this good friend.


I love how content and calm he is with her.

Let Lazy Dogs Be

Lazy dog.


Happy dog.


So very content in his little world.


My perfect boy.

Cool Doggy

 Cooper is so funny... Sometimes he lets us get a good picture of him being a goof. 


Check out this doo rag on this biker doggy.  He's so cool!

Loved These California Cops!

This was taken about 9 years ago in California.


These cops were game to pretend to scold Cooper as if he had done something wrong.  
I'll love this picture for EVER!

Best Co Pilot Ever

There is NO DENYING that Cooper is the best co pilot anyone could ever have.
  

This is our 13th year riding together.  I'm the luckiest person in the world!

Flat Tire

We helped my daughter with a flat tire.


I usually put Cooper somewhere so I don't have to watch him.


The bed of the truck is usually a great spot, until I turned around and saw his front feet were on the tire.
He doesn't get that it could roll away with him on it!

What's Your Wish?

Remember Zoltar in the movie "Big" with Tom Hanks?


This is the machine that granted his wish.


I don't know what Cooper would wish but I'd wish for happiness for everyone.  
What would you wish for?
