Another thing I thought is to use agaiter neck with the goggles instead of the mask. I check that out and report back. Thank you again, I really appreciate it.

@Jim from Boston - Maybe we will ride together sometime and grab a drink. I am planning on join some of the rides organized by the community in Detroit, They have some Slow Roll Detroit events planned for this year that sound good. I am in Lansing but I have been wanting to take part in a big group ride.
Thanks for your reply. We usually visit family in the Northern Detroit suburbs once during the summer. Back in 2011, a group of subscribers rode in an Annual Fifty-Plus Forum Ride sponsored by the Ann Arbor Bicycle Touring Society out of Chelsea, MI, the "OneHelluvaRide", and I was considering that again this year; check out their website. One of those riders was Blazing Pedals from the Lansing area.

Regarding mask and neck gaiter, I posted this about riding at 1º last week:

The rigid goggle earpieces also provide a support for my two rearview mirrors…
