Some think that Sturgis is about the bikes. To be sure, a ton of magnificent mechanical machine art andcengineering was on full display. I saw Elvis! 😉 and some of it was even for sale! In the end though, never forget rule 62!

Had great fun today watching the Ironhorse Rodeo in Red Lodge, Montana. Starting with a former Soecial Forces and Golden Knight bilateral amputee delivering the garrison flag! These guys were riding 'em like they stole 'em! Who says a Harley-Davidson can't perform in the dirt? Gotta Love America!

Rode the Chief Joseph Highway and the Beartooth Pass Highway today. Had some really challenging weather with heavy rains mixed in with pea sized hail that made capturing the enormity and grandeur of this gateway to Yellowstone National Park very difficult to depict in photographs. Nevertheless, I submit a few of my lame attempts to do just that here in the Hope that you will still somehow be able to see this spectacular part of creation and be encouraged to one day visit.

Folks if you've never been to the Olympic and Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs, you MUST go. The artifacts inside are priceless and the views outside are stunning! So excited shouting USA,USA,USA over here that I forgot to post the incredible purple mountains majesty view from outside the first time posting.

I traveled to Iowa at the beginning of July. The folks there, especially the farmers could use your prayers. The flooding was everywhere. In speaking with a local business owner, she said that they had received over 80 inches of rain since the 1st of May! Last year I rode past many fields that had withered and died due to drought. Strange what a difference one year can make.

Day 7 of things that I Love which bring me joy and make me feel truly alive!
Well, it looks like I'll only get to 7 before the New Year.
I Love how God shows up in my life in so many unanticipated ways. He always knows what I need. Many times this happens before I even know that I have a need. Like the time that these crazy Canadian bikers ( Shawn ) insisted that I ride in the Rolling Barrage to raise awareness for PTSD. That began some real healing for me and those guys are my brothers now.
The day that I lost my leg that caused my physical and relationship life to change forever, He sent me a human savior. ( Bruce ) We, too, are brothers now. Though my struggles are real, I have been strengthened.
The countless days on the road that begin with no certain stopping point. Yet, there is always a place for me and more. This has routinely led me to meet some amazing people who go on to be lifelong friends. ( Colette ) This family and many others are now"family" to me. In these exchanges, I get my questions of God answered and my belief renewed. With each detail large or small that He never misses, I grow to trust Him more and more. Though I physically feel great loneliness since Ella departed, I have actually never been alone. This level of Loving care is beyond true comprehension in this life. The best part of all these miracles, great and small, is that I get to share these stories and His Love with countless others. There are so many of these gracious times over the years that it would literally fill a book. So...Thank you to all the folks highlighted here and numerous others that have blessed me in myriad ways!
May y'all have a very Happy New Year!
May your 2024 be blessed beyond measure!

Day 6 of things that I Love which bring me joy and make me feel truly alive!
I Love being immersed in creation. The first time you lay eyes on a mountain so big that it is as if it has given birth to other smaller mountains that adorn its sides, clinging to their "mother" like their lives depend on it, you're jaw will drop in astonishment. To ride beside the buffalo, the bear, the wolf, the fox, the eagle as it hunts, is to be swept away in the currents of the wind, gliding along a path not of your control yet eagerly longing for where this nexus will lead. Set sail from any port and its plethora, unending busyness and you will soon find yourself utterly alone, no land anywhere in sight. Your scream goes unheard but for the random curious whale, shark or barracuda as you look up what seems like a seven story building at the massive swell that your vessel navigates as it shudders under the stress. You're mind races, asking, "how could this be?" Just yesterday you were swimming with giant sea turtles in the inviting and strikingly beautiful azure waters. To bare witness to all this majesty, is to be laid bare. Stripped of all grandiose designs has of one's stature in this world and humbled to just be an infinitesimal,yet critical, part of the magnificence that is God's creation!

Day 5 of things that I Love which bring me joy and make me feel truly alive!
I Love challenging myself physically and mentally. This has always been true but has been especially invigorating since losing my leg. In my younger days, it was all about the competition and proving myself to be better than another. If I crushed you, then all the better! This evil drive probably serves a purpose for a gladiator or a soldier. That is a sad but honest reflection of the state of my heart in those days. I still compete since losing my leg but, now, it is all about the heart. I don't win at anything anymore (from a purely narcissistic societal view). I may never finish on a podium. Yet, I win with every agonizing stride and all the painful yard sale wrecks. Because my mind says, "Oh, you can't do that," but my body doesn't listen as I pick myself off the side of the mountain or run through the pain to the next corner, and the next, and the next. Despite giving it my all and gasping for air, these moments are demoralizing. Ultimately, character demands this of us! Since I don't live in a vacuum, many of these feats of futility are witnessed by others. Others who, astoundingly enough, are actually encouraged and motivated to explore their own human fragility to discover their real stength. Ponce de Leon has nothing on these intrepid explorers! The reciprocal energy drives me onward. In the end, the indomitable human spirit rises to unprecedented levels. The elation that I feel leaves me emotional and exhausted. We collectively elevate each other to become more and the devil who would keep us in chains can't stand against that! In fact, I've learned that a one legged dude can actually stand pretty tall, even if he finishes last!

Day 4 of things that I Love which bring me joy and make me feel truly alive! Merry Christmas!
I Love cooking and eating great food. Whether simple or complex, it rejoices in the good gifts that a Loving God provides. The creatures great and small that sacrifice their lives are honored in this act. The fruits, vegetation and spices all elevate the bland to exquisite while acknowledging that all things in proper proportion make a whole greater together than the sum of their parts alone. Ones senses of smell and taste are heightened to seemingly cause a giant smile, a silly frown or a yikes face. How is it that our muscles are controlled in such a way? These moments cause people to come together in ways that most other things cannot begin to approach. When enjoyed with others, no matter the meal, it is always better. As such, so many of these bonding moments cause us to recall people and places that impact our lives dramatically. Each element represents something that points well beyond mere consumption, energy, or the passage of time. It is deeper than the surface depicts (although that artistry is inspiring in its own right) and in that precious time, we can all revel in the glory of gastronomy!
