There ya go, got my work cut out for me if I want to hit it up big time in the upcoming season.

I hit the road tonight, yup in the dark, headlights and flasher were blazing. It is amazing how peaceful and serene it is at night in the countryside. Thankfully it was a nice night out except for the crazy headwind. The cool part is spotlighting all the deer and other wildlife. My only complaint is that I wish drivers would turn their friggin highbeams off when I'm coming. I'm gonna go blind.

Anyways, I need to

lose some pounds

and if you need to lose some too check out a cool piece of software called

Calorie King

. Should help you keep your weight in check over those long winter months.
