Enjoying a fantastic day in Richmond, spring is just a few days away, and it was a good day to get out, get off the computer and take a walk. Walk...because I just got the heating bill from last month; and might be a good idea to save a little fuel cost. Sure the people at Columbia Gas are planning to take the boat out on the James this weekend...they are swimming in cash (ours!). Was a cold winter, and apartment living is more of a "shared heating" sort of thing; apartments are not real big on insulation. Much bigger house in North Carolina (my other place to live from time to time) was much cheaper this winter utility wise. Anyhow, back to happier things, did get out and saw this Super Bee on Midlothian Turnpike. A nice classic car and in pretty good shape. Never know what you will come across during a walk.
I also stopped into Ultimate Cycle on Midlothian Turnpike, kind of a motorcycle person (ride a Vulcan 1500...which like my family and house is also in North Carolina) but big on Vulcans. Got to think Kawasaki is kind of on a Star Trek roll; not just Vulcan line, but also has a big touring bike called the Voyager. At any case, liked this bike which I think is probably a 900 (but would not swear its not bigger...sometimes its hard to tell). Nice to get out and enjoy the day, great to get out and get moving a bit after being largely cooped up this winter. Spring officially starts this upcoming Saturday, but I think this "preview" has been super, and just what we all need. Looking forward to some fantastic spring weekends in both Richmond and Charlotte in the upcoming days and weeks. Get out and enjoy it!
