You Can't Stop Ma Nature

Today was a magnificent day - temps in the mid-60's, no wind, no clouds. On the way home from work tonight, I rode past the Auburn, Cord, Duesenberg Museum. This is where these cars were built back in the 1920's. You probably heard the expression, "Wow, that's a Deusy", well, that is a reference to the Duesenberg cars. Deusy's were large cars with massive engines - up to 12 cylinders.




Behind the ACD Museum is the National Automobile and Truck Museum which highlights advancements in truck design.



The St. Joe River is finally receding. Many farm fields along the river have been flooded the last week, but fortunately the water never rose high enough to threaten anyone's home.



It's hard to believe that a little more than a week ago this wetland was frozen and covered with snow. The chorus frogs are out today - take a listen:



Happy riding!
