So how can I stay close to our new mascot? I can't run that fast!!!

Oh yeah....just got back from my first shot. So far no issues. But then I don't expect any. Go back April 10 for second.

The pillow is Unavailable, everyone here must have ordered them all. Got the ammo I wanted at the gun show. I was there a little early and was the first one in what turned into a line about 100 yards long when they opened. Got my ammo and got out. Then Ms Tonebender and I rode to brunch at the Breakfast Station, yummy good. I had been eyeing a Triumph Thunderbird LT with only 4K miles on it over a Barbey;s Powersports. We went by there yesterday and it was not out front any longer so I figured they sold it. During brunch I called and it;s still there. We rode up to a landscaping place to get some ideas for plants and schedule someone to come give us a quote on installation. After we looked at the all the plants I mentioned that I sure would like that bike. She just said, "if you want it you should go get it now before they sell it." So we jumped on the bikes and headed that way. About 2 miles down the road I came to my senses. At the next stop I told her we should not spend the money and I had enough motorcycles. I could sell one but I really do not want to get rid of any I have. I think she was relieved.

Afternoon Wodds! Goofing around with a laptop my Pop sent me. He opened a pdf attachment from PayPal...it said he spent $1100 on something. So, he prints it out & takes it to his bank. They tell him its a fake statement. He freaks out & decides to get a new laptop to mitigate the risk the pdf installed a virus/malware. I told him to send me the old one, I'll put it to good use. Well, I played around with it over the past week & the hard drive completely dies. "Fortunately, I keep my feathers numbered for... for just such an emergency." I put in a different drive & am trying to load an OS on there.

G'Afternoon, Woods....

Check this out for some great leather work for tank and fender bibs especially for Indians. I just ordered a simple fender bib from him.

I really should get rid of one before acquiring another. I have room but it's a little crowded since she bought her Triumph. I have my '86 FXR, the Springer in my sig and the Indian Chief Darkhorse. If I could snap my fingers and make it happen I would still want three but the Chief, a Road King and a Triumph Thunderbird LT. That would be my dream trifecta.
