Oct 5th ride

Went out for a ride. It was one of those rides where you just point the bike in one direction and take a road. See another road that looks fun take it. The only signs you pay attention to is the speed limit signs. No destination, no time limit, no care where you end up, just as long as you can figure out how to get back home.
Well at one point one green sign stood out Bealeton. Part of my old stomping grounds as a kid. It was so nice being back on the farm for just those few mins. Walking around being reminded what is was like being a kid. All the fun times and the not so fun times.
Couldn't help but think of all the time Christopher and Josh use to say "If Matt can do it or If Matt can make it we can". The running on the hay bails. The little barn. How we use to hide from granddad, but he always knew where we were. How granddad, Josh, Chris and I would start cleaning out the barn but somehow Chris and Josh would somehow disappear and it was only me and granddad cleaning the horse stalls. Josh and I stepping on the nail same nail. And the list can go on and on.
I miss those days. Miss Granddad and Grandma.
God thanks for such an awesome family.
