Interesting days ride, though a short one on February 20, prior to work on a very nice Saturday. Sunny skies and warm was a real change of late, and with a lot of cabin fever took to the roads. Dodging the potholes, I drove out to Cary Street. In between, learned that Richmond Police ride Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Thankfully I did not learn that "the hard way" but at least two drivers did. Not just police motorcycles but a lot of motorcycles out riding on a fine day. I rode by this house on Cary, had seen it before, and its quite a remarkable place. Some fine houses in the area, but this one certainly stood out in a big way.
Did not have a great deal of time to explore, but did make it by Patrick's on Jefferson Davis Highway on the way back to the apartment. Got a kick out of this; this being the non-smoking area of the bar. Due to Virginia law, smokers have to be segregated from non-smokers; and this was their solution. They put another wall with a couple of doors in the restaurant and that is where non-smokers (at least two of them) can go. Not a smoker myself, but found this amusing and a very creative solution to the law. By the way, Patrick's has some pretty good food.
Had to get back to go to work, night was pretty good and on Sunday....well, will save that for the next post. Did enjoy the Saturday drive and the fine weather; bring on Spring!
