Last year when we drove up to Montana to visit my parents we had an odd thing happen. We were just outside of Idaho Falls in the predawn. I was driving that leg of the trip and out of the corner of my eye I saw a flash of something and then heard this THUNK sound. I knew I'd hit a bird........
We gassed up in Idaho Falls and continued on our merry way as the sun started to come up. When we hit Salmon, Idaho and gassed up again. I was more than ready to let Brian take over the driving. He walked around the front of the truck and got a funny look on his face and beckoned me to get out of the truck and come and look. There stuck in the headlight was a falcon. It had hit dead on and stuck with its butt and legs sticking straight out. Kind of morbid but looked quite funny.

When I get on a motorcycle or quad I can't control myself. I can't quit laughing and smiling and the faster I go the more I bust up laughing. I passed a couple yesterday on a motorcycle and I had a vision. The male driver was sitting there behind the bug splatter glass while his wife (I presume) was sitting perched up behind him with her face in the wind. All I could think of is if it were me I'd be laughing my head off, mouth wide open catching bugs and some big ol' falcon would come diving in after them............SO, I want my own Harley with my own bug/falcon splatter glass because it isn't lady like to have bird feet and butt sticking out of ones mouth..........I would know.........I've spent a lifetime eating crow................
I need to catch up. I need to jump on a Harley. No, a horse, and run fast and catch up on all these bloggy-things and have some fun and play dodge the falcon and stop feeling like the escalator just keeps going up and down, faster and faster.
