Log Item: It's a brisk 68 degrees (20C) here in SoCal, (anything under 70 counts as "brisk") under cerulean skies. I hadn't taken the Ducati out for a ride in 2016 yet, so today I did. I made a run through Carbon Canyon and then had Mexican food for lunch at El Farolito in Placentia (plug for El Farolito).
I met some people driving tractors (Harley Davidsons) who were waiting for a table, the same as I was. Some of their friends pulled up later and parked next to me. Fat boys with ape hangers. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Different people, different choices.
People drove a bit more rudely than usual, but since yesterday was New Year's Day, who knows. They may still have had a 3.0 blood alcohol level. It happens. If it was Scotland that would be the case for at least one more week. There were a lot of flat cats on the road, possibly a result of the New Year's Eve driving?
This is a boring blog post, but it's one of those days when (particularly after stuffing myself at El Farolito) about all that I could motivate myself to do was jump on the scooter and breathe the cold winter air.
Brisk is good for the soul. Breath deep and let the cool, clean air cuddle up with the blood cells. I enjoy days like this. Especially if I am at a football game.
ReplyDeleteIt worked out well today for me as well.
DeleteHow did I miss this? It's only just come up on my feed...maybe my WP feeder is still hungover too. Well, at least you got out and blew away the cobwebs. Very important after Christmas coma.
