Thoughts Of A Free Man

I'm riding around exploring the places of my past. Its funny how some chapters are laid to rest with a bookend.

Well Summer has strained, wheezed, and flared up a time or two and it looks like next week it might make it to western Washington to stay. This week has been rainy and cool so I drove over to the coast for a change of scenery. I wanted to get some good photos of the sunset but there wasn't much,... Sign in to see full entry.
