Remorning woods,

Grands are here today as their daycare center is closed for COVID deep cleaning

Off to work this afternoon after Tonya finishes up her day at work.

Already looking forward to nap time.

Chuck, news has stories about deadly weather in Florida. Hope it is far from your location.

Good morning no-nappers, weather-watchers, absentee-adults, and the like! My body is sore but damn did I sleep well.

Had a couple mishaps, and a road side repair I'm proud to say I was able to complete and get the guys bike another 150 miles. He has an aftermarket shift linkage and the heim joint broke. I was able to get it apart and use a washed and reattach the bolt to hold it all together. Worked perfect.

I hit a pothole that jarred me half to death. By the time I saw it I couldn't avoid it. My bars slipped, which is a common issue, so when I stopped I just rotated the controls to match the new angle. They didn't hit the tank at full lock, lowered them a touch and provided a decent amount of pullback. All in all, not unhappy. I'm going to drill, tap, and pin the bars. I'm hoping that will happen this week.

Someone got this pic of us:
