One of the things on our "bucket list" is a perimeter ride of the USA...on motorcycles. After all, we have been riding two wheels longer than we care to admit! Since we have never been the type to "follow the crowd", we decided that we would attempt this ride on scooters. *****************UPDATE************** We have lost our minds...AGAIN! We are doing the Perimeter Ride again, this time on cruisers. Stay tuned for more adventures of Ken and Sharlene!!!!

Day 49 - Casa Grande
 |
| Oh yes,Lila (the name of our GPS) will find the best way to San Ysidro! Yep, that cutie is my fantastic husband Ken. |
 |
| Humphries Inn at Shelter Island. This is a great place to stay, lots of resturants, tons of boats to look at. All summer they have nightly live entertainment and concerts too. We were lucky to get a last minute booking thru hotels.com. We have been using that a lot since MN and till the end of our trip. |
 |
| The last of the four corner stops. San Ysidro post office. |
 |
| You know that your near the Mexican boarder when they take dollars and pesos! |
 |
| Yes folks, thats 115 degrees! El Centro, Ca. |
 |
| 108 degrees at 9 o'clock in the evening. Dateland, Az. |
 |
| This is my wonderful, beautiful wife Sharlene. This gal has ridden over 10,000 miles with me in the last month and a half. We have ridden in storms, rain, hail, windy, hot, and cold. Two weeks ago we crossed over a mountain pass in Montana that still had snow. Now here she is in Dateland, Az...it's 930 in the evening and 108 degrees and she is still smiling! Am I a lucky man or what?!?!?!? |
 |
| We are still researching this light that appeared out of no where to the south of us while on I 8 tonight. We think they are flares as there were two of them at times. Perhaps these are being used in some type of Mexican boarder patrol mission's. Or they are lights from possible UFO's, LOL! |
