Those are the 16 inch guns from the USS Pennsylvania. They’re on display at the Military Museum here. No water bodies large enough for a battleship nearby.

I can remember riding in the winter with the ground covered in snow and a full moon overhead — no need for headlights at all. Very strange and peaceful as you say.

Little night rides, rides without much traffic and no need to travel fast, they’re great. Reading your comments I realize I’ve not had any pancakes in a long, long time…

I only did some soft howling.

That’s a great shot. I would be happy to have made that.

Photographing the moon is tough — especially if you want it to appear large in the photo. You need a really long lens to do that. I have a 300mm lens on a full frame camera and that wasn’t enough. So I have to live with the little round bulb of a moon in my photos. There’s always photoshop…

Pretty dark thoughts…

I appreciate a full moon every now and then. It makes it easier to spot obstructions and adds visibility to my surroundings. The moonlight makes riding more peaceful.

I it seems important to also acknowledge the time we have here and not waste it. These nights have been some of my favorite rides. That being said I’m going to take the Honda interceptor in search of beautiful fluffy pancakes this morning. OwwWoooo!
