First entry using my phone

This is my first entry using just my phone I'm actually using the voice to type with just went outside and it is very dark guess I'm going to have to wait for the Sun to come up also raining so no pictures yet but maybe on the next post

Another weekend adventure on the train to Dallas

I am up an hour early, so I made breakfast to get my day rolling, I also decided to use my blogger to do entries about my trip this weekend, I downloaded an app called Blogger that should be interesting I guess I will found out how that works with this blog later today.

Right now getting the last minute things ready, my backpack just needs the electronics added to it that I charged while I was sleeping.

I am going to bring my notebook and my Ipad Mini with me on this trip,

I gassed up the truck last night, was not sure about that because I do plan to put it up for sale at some point and it cost 50 bucks to fill up but if I don't sell it I will have gas for the rest of the year as much as I drive it, which is normally on bad weather days since it has more traction on the roads.

Time to stop typing and finish breakfast.

 

 Went on a ride to see where the train station was in Norman for Tuesdays trip so I would not have to look for it.

Les was along for the trip on his new bike, we ate at a pizza place down by the college.

Then took a ride out the the north side Marina at Thunderbird Lake, then on home.
