6-7-17..Thank you God there is some sun in the Northeast.  Started the ride from Kittery Maine to Chestnut Hill Mass about 0900.  It was a little cool but the sun was out which was amazing to see.  I was riding to chestnut Hill to have lunch with Irv Frankel, an old Marine buddy and a battle hardened leatherneck with many combat missions in the bars of Marble Mountain Vietnam and Iwakuni Japan as well as forays into the "O" club at Naval Air Station Roosevelt Roads Puerto Rico.  He is a fine teller of stories but most of all, a great friend.  Irv took me to a great lunch.

too soon we had to part as I was heading to Falmouth on Cape Cod to visit and old college friend and his wife, Bruce and Carol Haslun.  They have a gorgeous old colonial home right in Falmouth and I arrived just about the cocktail hour so we partook of the same out on the patio in the sun and it was delightful.  Then they took me on a little tour and to dinner at a quaint old pub in downtown Falmouth.

All to soon it's get the blog published and get to bed because tomorrow is another riding day over to our Alma Mater and then down to Old Saybrook CT for a visit with a great college friend, Henri David.

So goodnight all, it was a good day.  Hope for some more of them.
