Some Fun in the Spider (Video)

[DUCeditor]

A gorgeous morning here in the Monadnocks (NH) this morning. Clear, dry and about 75 f degrees. My Dear One and I took out the Spider to enjoy some local back roads and Jan recorded this short video for me on my iPhone.

Up for a short ride?

Reminded me of Tron, around 1:10

Now you just made me homesick for Oregon. Eugene was surrounded by these kind of roads. The ones in Arizona are hours away and for the most part are so poorly maintained, they rattle every nut and bolt loose on the car.

Now you just made me homesick for Oregon. Eugene was surrounded by these kind of roads. The ones in Arizona are hours away and for the most part are so poorly maintained, they rattle every nut and bolt loose on the car.

We lived in Boston for many years. Weekend mornings were spent going elsewhere in search of roads. One, two or even more hours away. Then we'd drive them for an hour or two before heading home. Into (%@&!) traffic.

That's when we decided to eventually move to -- where else? -- where those roads were/are.

One group of favorite roads found then begins at the end of my own "street." And that "street" itself is a wonderful drive. Horses, ducks, --even for a time buffalo -- around each bend and beyond each rise and dip.

Sometimes what life requires puts us miles from what we love. My wife Jan and I determined that eventually that'd no longer be true. We bought property in the Monadnock area almost twenty years ago. Put up with a daily commute the other way -- for work! -- for a time. Now we are here 100%. Retired. And loving it. No more hours looking for roads. They begin at the end of our (long) driveway.
