I use to get up in the middle of the night and  just go for a drive...I just stayed away from the cities and made sure my door was always locked.

(smiles) Now let's hope there's still plenty of those backroads left, I'd like some taste of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance! (big hugggsssssss) I love this, sweet friend, your style always amazes me, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Sue- Even your achingly short wrties are complete and descriptive and outstanding reads. Is there anything you can't write??
outstanding job.

We are all equal but we’re individually different
and able to reach the impossible if we try.

Ceinwyn's reply was adorable.

I have more dials and buttons and controls in my car than I know what to do with!--literally! I'm still finding new gadgets and gizmos!--but I love how they look at night when they are dimly lit!--and I love going for drives in the country when the stars are bright and I hear the sounds of the wild. I have the windows wide open and the air smells so fresh. See, your poem got me off on my own tangent!

Me n a friend of mine love our night drives, with the volume up listening to the stones. and the only lights you can see are the dashboard ones and the odd tail lights of another driver.

then, of course when we tire of the country roads, we head for the big almighty, trusty bright shining M. Mc Donalds!

nice to read you again susie.

Instant karma's gonna get you.
