Trip Home

Once I decided I was heading home, I started my journey.  I went down to Tucson, over to New Mexico and then to Texas.    At one point I was going to try and dodge storms and make my way up through to Maine.  After chatting with a friend and thinking about what they said, I decided it may be best to fly home and have my bike shipped home.  I started researching on line for transportation, and stopped at a couple Dealerships to see if they shipped bikes.  When I got to Fort Worth, Texas the service department gave me a contact of who they (Harley) uses for transporting all their bikes.  So I called to get all the information and get a quote.  It was a little more expensive, but I think it’s worth it.

After dropping my bike off for pick up I took Uber back to my hotel.  About 5 minutes after getting back the wind picked up and it started raining.  I have been extremely fortunate as the last four rain storms have started within minutes of me stopping for the day – phew!

The morning I was flying out of Dallas, Texas it was freezing rain.  With multiple accidents reported on the news that morning.  Definitely a sign I’m doing the right thing by shipping my bike home.  Since I’ve been home and watching the weather up the east coast and hearing about the tornadoes in Alabama, I would have been in the middle of all that or stuck in a hotel waiting the weather out.

As bummed as I am that I’m here in Maine while it’s still winter, I’m very grateful that I’m home safe and sound.

Love and Light to you all!
