This is a follow up on Twisters pasture mate, Cutter. The deal between the former owner and Texas daughter was that she had to agree to take both horses, Twister and and her pasture mate, Cutter. He paid the shipping costs and told her that if Cutter didn’t work out, then she was free to find her another home. Cutter […]

Van dad and mom made it back safe and sound and are now planning the journey back to Michigan., but not before enjoying the Texas Star and her family for another week. I will let the pictures do the talking

It was an amazing ride. I got to add 1680 miles to my odometer. Now I hope that I can get a bath,

Staying two nights at Cowboys and Angels gave van dad and mom time to relax and take me on a leisurely ride on some great motorcycle roads. It also gave van dad time to check out the various old farm implements that decorated the property. He was especially pleased to determine that the two bottom plow was a Case plow. […]

The plan was to buy a Senior National Parks pass, […]

Even though they were riding way down south, they still packed ALL their gear, including van moms heated jacket and pants. With a stop to put on warmer gear […]

Van dad and mom found themselves in Texas with not only moi, but Beamer as well. This provided them with the perfect opportunity to take a long motorcycle trip. I would stay on the farmstead and be entertained by the Texas Star who is constantly on the move and runs a verbal narrative at the same time. I am going […]
