Spooky Halloween Evening

As I am leaving Danville for a nearby campground I notice a little smoke coming up from around my triple-trees (fork/frame connection). Not good. The oil level looks low so I top it off and decide to head east toward Little Rock in case I need to stop for repairs tomorrow. There is no moon, no stars, few cars and the surrounding countryside and sky are as black as the new asphalt. AR hwy 60 is a typical two-lane for the region, curvey, hilly and well maintained, but when the last little bit of sunlight disappeared it got creepy. Just my single headlight and a couple of white and yellow lines fading into the darkness. But at least it stopped raining.
