A Cross Post

This is a post from my other blog "Facebook Fugitive" here on Blogger http://facebkfugitive.blogspot.com/2016/11/the-day-after-trump-and-my-great-ride.html Thankfully Clinton lost ! Not that I'm a Trump supporter,quite the contrary acutally.I wanted Gary Johnson to be president.But the fraud that is American elections is a rigged game and keeps other parties like the Libertarians and the Greens out of the game so the D's and R's can maintain their strangle hold on the corporate government they have imposed on us.In the end the people always lose and that loss is calculated in percentage.We would have lost more with Clinton than Trump but only on certain issues like gun rights and this forced obamacare shit the D's rammed down our throats,So,I'm happy the D's got their ass kicked but as I said yesterday we now have president elect asswipe.It's still a sad day for America just less sad than it could have been.So,enough about this.There will be plenty to write about this fool over the next 4 years ! Yesterday was an incredible day ! I left home a little after 10AM on the Moto Guzzi and headed east on the Long Island Expressway .The bike was running really good as I was cruising along at about 70mph in the HOV lane.Got out to Manorville and hit some backroads then decided I would go to Greenport . As I road east it warmed up some and there was a cloudless blue sky.No traffic and the ride was just as I had hoped.Went to see my old friend Arial in Greenport.He and his wife are moving to Arizona to Tucson and Arial is trying to pack all his vintage motorcycles and tools.He's got me beat here man .This guy has three times as much crap as me ! So anyway,I stopped but there was no one home but I knew they were around 'cause their dogs were there. Kept heading east .I decided I'd kill some time and ride out to Orient Point ,the eastern point on the north fork of Long Island where I took a walk and shot some photos.
After a nice walk down to the beach stretching my legs after the hour and a half ride out from home I decided to head back towards Greenport.As I was riding west I saw this side road that looked interesting so I turned to explore some and found this great road that went along this tidal inlet so I found a nice place to pull over and hiked around some where I took these photos.
As I walked along taking pictures I saw this path going into the woods so I took it.It led to a spot wher I had a view of the inlet from the middle and as I was taking some more photos I saw this splashing in the water just below me where there was this school of bunker
What a great place ! I walked around some then headed back to my bike to ride on down the road.
Rode a little bit more them pulled over here at this boat launch site before getting into the small village of Orient where I took these final photos of the day.
Back on the bike I headed over to the Main road and to my friends house about 10 miles away .It was good to see my old friend.We spent an hour talking and trying to figure out how to come to terms with letting go of all these treasures we both have collected over the years.We are both faced with the same problem,getting rid of a valuable collection of junk !It was a good day and a good ride.I deactivated my Face Book page after dinner and am moving forward . I'm so glad Clinton got her ass kicked !!!!!
