051311 – Monkey on a Ural

Vince — Sat, 14 May 2011 04:47:31 +0000

I went down to the Jersey Pine Barrens with my brother. We met up with a bunch of guys who have the same make of motorcycle that he does, and went riding around in the woods. I rode in the sidecar - the slang term is to be the “monkey”. It’s surprising what terrain these bikes can handle, considering they’re also quite roadworthy. We went through sugar sand, water crossings, and road craters. We skipped the 2nd night at the campsite, but got a lot of riding in between Friday afternoon and Sunday night. We were on the bike for 7 or 8 hours on Saturday. I’ll add video in another post once it’s pieced together. There’s only a couple of pictures with me in them, since I was the one taking the pix!

In June of 2010, we spent 5 nights on the Carnival Glory, in an outside cabin on Deck One. Two friends from our Kingdom Hall went with us – it was their first cruise.

We went on a “2 Night Cruise to Nowhere” from Manhattan on the NEW Carnival Dream in November of 2009, with Kim’s mom and her niece. Several tropical storms came together and made it a very bumpy ride.
