Michael's Story
Life
I'm married & we had 2 kids. Our son died in 2004. That was very tough. Our daughter has a daughter. Being a grandpa is pretty cool. In 2003, I decided to get back into motorcycles.

We went on a LONG drive vacation to CA and AZ last spring. Nice country but its a very long drive from here. Everything else is OK.
