Facebook Fooey!
After trying to get these photos to load for 30+ minutes on Facebook I was only able to get one of the three to load, so I gave up and just decided to blog a note and let Facebook import it.
The winds started blowing from the south yesterday and by this morning it was 63 degrees. The wind kept up most of the day, mostly in the 20 to 30 mph range, but it did bring nice warm temperatures with it -- 79 degrees at DFW airport. Joyce and I took advantage of the warm day in December and rode our motorcycles to church this morning. John and Cara were leaving at the same time so we got John to take a picture of us before church.
After church we had a meeting and then an errand. When those tasks were complete we headed out to Hard 8 BBQ in Coppell for lunch. We took this picture right after lunch.
After lunch we rode around Lewisville Lake and got back to the church building at 5 PM for the "Stranger in the Manger" presentation. The route we took was similar to a route we took last April, though we came down I35E through Lake Dallas instead of going the long way around through Argyle. We didn't have any kids in the presentation, but it was fun to watch anyway. Of course, anything I do with the lady pictured below is fun!

Always know what time it is!
I guess this might go under the category of "too much information." Anyway, I keep my dress accessories (watch, wallet, keys, pen, etc.) on a dresser in my closet. This morning as I dressed I didn't load my pockets, so after breakfast I went back into the closet and grabbed all the pocket clutter: watch, pen, etc.; loaded up, and headed out to work.
In the middle of a presentation I was attending I noticed that I was having a hard time adjsting the watch on my arm. I pulled my sleeve up to see what the problem was. The picture below really explains it better than words could, but I guess I put one watch on before breakfast and the next one on after breakfast. At least, I hope there was a time break between putting on the two watches, otherwise I'm worse off in the memory department than I feared.

North Texas Cruisers Christmas Party
Our motorcycle club had its year end/Christmas party last night. There were about 24 of us at the party, and it was a good time with the requisite white elephant gift exchange. This group calls a white elephant gift exchange "Naughty Santa," which I have never heard before, but maybe has to do with stealing other people's gifts.
Anyway, one of the reports was the number of miles we rode this year as a club. They gave us this certificate. I accounted for about 9,000 of the 142,000 miles. There were five riders with more miles; the highest was over 19,000.
