Motorcycle Tommy
One of my most memeorible times of Tom was when he first came out to the desert where my family and I would camp and ride our motorcycles and quads. Charlotte and Tom had came out to spend the day and have some grilled dinner. It was Ocotober and the weather was perfect. As I started the grill in the late afternoon to prepare to cook, Tom asked "Hey Pal can I try our that four wheeled motorcyle (quad)"? After a brief run down on the basic operations of the quad, Tom strapped on a helemet and headed down a trail near camp. The sun started to set behind the mountains and it was one of those sunsets where the sky was orange and the winds were calm. It had been about 15 minutes since Tom departed on his ride and Charlotte was getting worried and asked me if I had seen him. Just about that time, way off in the distance, a lone head light could be see coming towards us from the east, bouncing up and down . The light was traveling down a large graded road that paralleld camp and was moving fast. As Charlotte was looking for Tom to the south east, the light (which was mounted to a quad) zoomed by at what appeared to be full speed. The rider was hard to make out as the sun light was near gone, but it was obvious that the rider was standing up on the pegs and was leaning over the handle bars almost in a full race position. As the quad flew by, Charlotte spun and said "Look at that fool hauling butt", not knowing it was Tom. Shortly after that Tom pulled and parked alond side where Charlotte was standing and said "hello love"! Still not knowing it was Tom who just flew by camp, Charlotte asked him, "did you see that ediot flying down the road on that quad"? Tom repsonded "no" and looked at me, we both started laugh. I had to Charlotte that it was Tom that was on the quad that flew by and the look of surprise made Tom and I laugh even more. This was the first and last time TOm ever rode a quad. Tom was full of amazments and one of greatest people I have ever known. I miss you Pal.
