A nice Fall day for riding

The morning started out dark but clear and 45 deg. and stayed clear for the most part and warmed up to around 80 deg. I left Dalhart, TX at 6:30 am and arrived in Medicine Lodge, KS at 11:30 am. I had a nice visit with Bob and Dorothy Stutler. Bob was my boss for about 17 years at Ruger. He seems to be enjoying his semi-retirement by running his gun shop and keeping Medicine Lodge in order as their Mayor.

I left there at 1:30 pm and arrived at brother Steve's house at 6:30 pm.

Tomorrow we'll put a new front tire on my bike that I've been dragging around and do a little relaxing.

The front tire I'll put on tomorrow. I put a new rear one on the bike before I left but wanted to squeeze in a few more miles on the front one.
