GETTING PMS AND A POSSIBLE VIDEO

With a half rain/half snow outside and the forecast for the next week having high temperatures in the high 30's, a real case of "pms" is starting to set in.  I can only imagine what you poor folks who have stayed here through this "mmat" winter must be going through!  By the way, the first one who guesses correctly what "mmat" stands for gets a free supper at Gus & Tony's after one of our Wednesday night rides. (One guess per person, must be done before the next blog post comes out--563-568-7277 or post on "COMMENTS")  Since I am kind of a basketball "junkie", I should be able to survive another week with the help of March Madness.  Go Iowa and Iowa State!

I am going to TRY to post a video of part of one of our rides in Florida.  If it works out, you will see us going over the John Gorrie Bridge that connects Apalachicola, FL, with East Point, FL, across Apalachicola Bay.  This is where the Apalachicola river flows into the Gulf of Mexico and the fresh water mixes with the salt water to grow oysters which the city of Apalachicola gained its fame.  It was also a cotton seaport and was blockaded by the Union forces during the Civil War.  It's really a neat old town!

Be patient, this is my first attempt at this:

The video worked! And I totally know what MMAT stands for but I'll save it for someone that can claim the dinner. I have an unfair advantage of having heard it about 1,000 times. :-)
