A New Season

Let me dust off the blog and try to get back to writing ..... not sure if anyone stays tuned anymore but here goes....

As summer approaches full force, the weather gets warm and occasional thunderstorms pass over again and again. However, storms don't last always. I believe there is always a rainbow awaiting to reveal itself after every passing storm. Things have gotten better from my previous blogs and many issues I noted. My relationship seems to be moreso on the positive side than negative lately. Communication has been taking place much more which has made things flow more easily.

As far as family, well still not dependable, but I must admit that I do miss them here and there. I finally was able to get a lead on my long lost brother and sisters. However, I have hesitated to make that phone call. Why? I don't know. What should I say? I mean the phone number is to my brothers daughter. Come to find out that the daughter resents his father which has the same name as I. Funny thing, I went to the same school at the same time with my niece even though she was 4 grades behind me, but never knew that. Amazing huh? Well, I tend to use the number one day to see where it leads me, but who knows.

I also bought a mountain bike. I figure gas is like 4 dollars a gallon, why not ride a bike? But yeah....so I took it on a trail the other day. It was crazy. I mean when I was much younger, I use to take leisure rides up and down the street, around the corner, down several blocks, and then back to the house. Never had I went on a true mountain bike trail. The shit was crazy though, but fun. It was a first for me.

Another thing I did for the first time was go kart riding. It was mad fun. It was a first of mines as well. It was with some people from work in which we raced around the track several times in a go kart and was knocking people out like Mario Kart.

I guess one thing that I would like to now is do some more travelling. Where do I want to go? I don't know.....FL? GA? CA? or maybe overseas? Well, I need to plan well in advance for it. Usually, every year I take a trip somewhere and this year I haven't really taken a vacation trip yet. Anyone got any ideas?
