Sunday Sights (July 6, 2025)



 Out on the Triumph this morning a few extra sites. New Buc-ee's is looking like one. While riding stopped and wandered around Carriage Hill Farm. Original farm preserved from the 1800s. 

Good ride, more photos on my "Racing with the Wind" page

Back to Niagara Falls ( June 19-23, 2025)

 Back to Niagara Falls,  a beautiful ride along Lake Erie, and beautiful sights at the Falls.  It is just a remarkable place to go. Had a great stay at the Marriott in Ashtabula,  Ohio, highly recommended on the way there and coming back

 We traveled back to Rising Sun to hang out by the Ohio River, listen to music and visit the local critters. Good eats at El Nopal, good music especially "Still Kickin" which was an especially good band. We had a wonderful time!

Robins Visit (May 31, 2025)





 Visited by Robins over the past few weeks after they built a nest on our porch. Very cool watching it happen. Mother Robin was more aggressive than others were here and back in my Richmond days, but was still a lot of fun. Always enjoy this and fond of things that fly. Saw a couple of first flights including the baby bird at bottom.

Niagara Falls (May 3-8, 2025)








Sights during the Niagara Falls trip, as well as sights around Lake Erie from May 3-8, 2025. Beautiful sights there. As a bonus, the Kyle Petty Charity Ride made a 2 day stop there during our visit. I did not know they were coming, saw it on the news and their hotel was just a short walk from ours. 

Beautiful and a favorite place to visit, and we have been here a number of times. We also love the Ashtabula area of Northern Ohio and spent a couple of days there as well.

Visit to Indian Lake (April 23, 2025)

Back after a winter pause...we took a ride to Indian Lake yesterday for a wonderful lunch which we split and a wonderful drive to and from the lake. It is a favorite place to visit here in Ohio and wildly popular during the summer. Spring is a great time to visit to avoid the crowds.

Christmas Lights at Rising Sun Casino (November 22-25, 2024)

 

Wonderful time at Rising Sun, Indiana where Christmas is in full color. Live reindeer, carriage rides, animated displays, beautiful outdoor sights, and Christmas music at the Casino. 

It was a wonderful time, which we always look forward to. Christmas is our favorite time of year. On the weekends they have Christmas characters to get photos with and of course Santa is there as well. 

If you are in the area, a visit is HIGHLY recommended.
