Santa arrived early
Just picked up the last motorcycle I am ever going to need. Also gave my supervisor notice that come Jan. 4 2014 I will no longer be reporting for work, after 33 years I am ready to try something else or maybe even nothing else. The wife said it was time and who am I to argue with a woman who is a whole lot smarter than me.

Long day at work.
The beginning was pretty nice, though.
Delivered the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in the morning.
The buffalo were out and decided to block the road.
Picture shows just a few.
Most are on the other side of the road (or in it).

Kind of sappy, I know, but lots and lots of butterflies. There seem to be so many more than normal here for some reason.

Let us know if rainbows and unicorns start showing up as well.
I can't speak for everyone, but if that happens, I may just switch over to the Dim party.

Nope, no rainbows or unicorns yet. I am waiting though.
And hey, it definitely beats being overrun with stink bugs as we have been the last couple of years.
