Virginia Beach, Virginia (September 16-20, 2021)
Hampton Air Power Park (September 16, 2021)
Richmond, VA (September 15, 2021)
This was my house in Richmond. I got a kick out of seeing it again. Saw that the big tree in the front yard is going. Wandered around for a bit and checked out the old neighborhood. As mentioned we had lunch at Legend seen below. My old employer is below that, an amazing complex of buildings.
Made a stop at Scoot Richmond, which is now at a new location. It is from them that I purchased my Triumph Speedmaster. That is one great motorcycle shop (and I have been to a few). No Triumph dealers in Dayton, so good to see those motorcycles again (I get my motorcycle here worked on from a former one...also it's very good place to go). Had a great time in Richmond, and a nice overnight. There was a group of motorcyclists at the hotel, who were going to a rally in New York (former firemen) and we enjoyed hanging out with them.
Cumberland, Maryland (September 13-14, 2021)

Carriage Hill Farm (September 10, 2021)
I enjoy coming out here, both with my wife and via the motorcycle (though today was in the Honda Civic while out getting it washed). It is a beautiful place and very peaceful. In wild times such as this being in an oasis of calm is a welcome thing indeed.

Enjoying this Labor Day 2021 though no longer really labor (at least not in a paying job) though still lots of work to do out there. Hope your holiday is wonderful

West Virginia Days (August 24-26, 2021)
Short 3 day trip to Wheeling, West Virginia and to Mountaineer (aka Chester) where we also spent a day. Two overnight trips to see some nice places. We have been there before and will be again in the future. To the left is the bridge at Wheeling, one of the oldest suspension bridges in the US. It is now closed to traffic but makes for a cool walk over the Ohio River. Below are three photos from Chester: the Teapot, the military display outside of the city, and horses racing at Mountaineer Casino. My wife and I had a wonderful time there with beautiful weather and fine people.
