Finally found an advantage to having my wife home all the time. I don't have to hear " Is it gonna sn*w? Will there be school tomorrow? Do you think I'll have a delay? " She used to drive me crazy with that..over and over and over.

Foggy this morning. musta been an interesting drive 'fore the sun came up. Winter fog can freeze here, frozen fog is like driving through diamond dust, millions of little sparkles. Kinda purty, but it reflects your lights back at ya, harder to see in than regular fog.

Gf has gotten weather crazy the past couple years, hint of rain or snow, even getting windy, she wants to watch the weather channel every hour. Gets updated 3 times a day... Ok, let's get this movie going... no, no, weather first! Argh

New road makes for a fun summer...





This went on for about 6 months. Real fun when it rained. Which it did a lot that year. Did half the neighborhood that year, half the next. Everybuddy thought it was worth it, though, driving over packed dirt was easier than this...

I've got about 17 I could lend ya... Wait, hanging a new light in the basement yesturday, noticed the main air duct had about half the hanging brackets pulled out, sagging bad; make that 18 projects. Any good with house wiring, hanging cabinets, and tile werk? Got a few motorsickle projects, too. Couple re-wires (all of it!), 10 tire changes (cause I let 6 go this summer when I couldn't ride most of it), and 4 carb re-builds. I gotta stop buying cheap old chit.

That reminds me, guy doesn't know what he has, trying to sell a Honda V65 (would smoke a VRod) for $750 cause it needs new tires, wish I had that trailer so I could bring it home. Has the Hondaline Fairing on it, too, no cracks, could probably get at least $300 for that.

The V65 had a boatload of torque too. I remember seeing many with bent up rear fenders and broken taillights from "unexpected wheelies"
