After I got married in 2013 a weird thing began to happen to me when I was on my bike. About half way through each ride I would have the urge to go home. For the first time in my life I had a reason to go home. My wife. Don't get me wrong....Robin fully supports my riding and even encourages it. Even on a beautiful late October day like today....the foliage is almost at one hundred percent,
The foliage is near 100% at the corner of Chestnut Street and Main Street in Mount Wolf, PA -- October 23, 2015 |
the sky is blue, the temperatures in the 60s...I began to miss her. One of the things I love about Robin is that she and I often seem to share a brain. As I was riding past the Conewago Creek, and began to turn towards home, my phone rang in my ear. I heard her voice ask me how far I was from home.
Today I turned up Conewago Creek Road to head back home -- October 23, 2015 |
"Just about 15 minutes from the house..." I told her. She was missing me, too. How incredible it is to have that special someone to share your life with. Someone who misses you when you are not there. I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.
