When we left the Ski Lodge & restaurant at Mt.
Lemmon, we took a ride to an area near
Summerville that Bill had seen some bears. Here is Bill leading the way in. REMEMBER: if ya want to see it bigger, click the pic.

Here is Dale heading to the bear area..

After seeing no bears, we heading back down the mountain. Here is a view off to the right I took on the way down.

Here is Dale on the way down. Bill took off on his Triumph and beat us to the

At the bottom, we headed home. This was the last shot I got in Arizona. Dale heading to his house.

On Sunday, the 27
th, I left Arizona at 4 a.m. (AZ time) 6 a.m. Texas time, and headed home. I stopped at a rest area near El
Paso to rest the butt.

The final shot of the trip. Miss Clone at the rest area outside of El
Paso.. I did not go non-stop home as the wind was blowing about 30 mph from the east all the way, so I stopped and spent the night in Abilene Texas. Got up at 8 a.m. on the 28
th and rolled into the house at about 10:30 a.m. I had a great time in Arizona & it was great to see Bill, Jackie & the kids. I have a new friend, Dale who is a righteous guy. Dale was a Marine in
Viet Nam and he stepped on a landmine..Long story short, when he stepped off the landmine the force blew out not up, thus saving his life..All his injuries were internal & he has all his limbs. Dale says that he closed his eyes, stepped off the mine & woke up on a hospital ship a week or so later....Janice has agreed to let this be an annual m/c trip for me, so you know I am counting the days & can't wait for next year...Maybe Russ will get to go.......Enjoy the blog and keep the wind in your face & the rubber on the road........JOHN
