This is in fact one of the Great Mysteries of Life, right up there with where do scrunchies and single socks go. The real cruncher is when they turn their heads to check for traffic, look you right in the bloodshot eye, and THEN step into your path.Originally Posted by LadyinWhite

Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

The inlaws have a summer home on the ocean in a small summer community called Ocean Point, just outside of Boothbay Harbor. We go up every year, usually for at least 2 or 3 weeks. We have a 22' sailboat we keep up there. This year the summer was so packed with other stuff we didn't get up. Originally Posted by Mr. Silver

This was ok by me, after 24 years of OP, I'm ready for a break but the Mr. really REALLY misses not going up (his childhood summers etc etc). SO, even though the boat never got in the water this year, we are popping up for a very quick visit.
I'm not thrilled about it but it is letting the small stuff slide that has kept me happily married for 22 years. If it's that important to him, buy me a bag of red licorice for the drive and I'm in.
All packed and set to go, still on the fence about bringing the bike. The Mr. doesn't want to b/c we have a cumbersome rack that prevents the hatch on the car from being opened. He thinks we need to buy a more $$ rack that swings away. However - he's no dummy - he said "Honey, if you want the bike, we'll take the bike."
If momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy.
Leaving the laptop home. Actually unplugging from work for a few days - WOW!

ps: Red licorice AND tiny bag of Peanut Butter M&M's already set to go for tomorrow. God I love riding and being able to eat the occasional crap with a clear conscience!!
pss: born and raised in VT here.. and you are right JuJu, it is NOT flat!! LOL - I've been in NJ for 22 years and my whole family (still in VT) has said I'm officially a flatlander now. A "city girl" AND a flatlander!
