You know I'm mad at you, right Eric?
Like my Grandpa Sig used to say (in a strong Swedish accent), "there's no sense gettin' mad, 'cause nobody is scared."

Always: Just realized that I drove through Keizer on my way to McMinnville a few weeks ago. From what I saw not a bad area.

Today was a sad day. Had to sell my Vulcan.

Attachment 22989

Attachment 22990

Price of heating oil just keeps going up same as everything else and winter is comming. #2 heating oil is about $4.50/gal now and is predicted to go to $9.00 depending on who's predicting around here.

That was one of the things I swore I'd never sell but I guess it beats freezing this winter. Now I wonder how to pay for heat for the second half of the comming freeze. (I have an extra kidney I guess )

WooHoo

Fresh coffee, the real stuff and a breakfast like that from Cin. WOW, the janitor is really going to have to shape up. Thanks...

ofcmarc sorry you have to sell something like that. Nice looking bike. I don't think they want kidneys yet, just arms and legs.

Cold is felling better this AM, not so congested in the lungs.

One more cup for the road and I'll be on my way. Have a good one drive safe and have fun.

Heidi just sent a couple pics, I didn't even know were taken. I guess Mike was sneaky with the camera.

One day of swinging the hammer , we got the tying room layed out. Got the peak and a few rafters up as well. Had planned on some more work saturday, but the bugs were way too thick, so we cut it short.


The reward for a hard days work, we got to go wet a line in the Muskegon River on the 4th. I was hopeing for a few more fish. With the canoe/tube traffic and casting lessons, can't complain too much, we did get a few. Thanks again to Mike for patiently waiting while we indulged ourselves.

Red, the building looks good.

I am at a stand still on my little aluminum building. i have made some kind of basic fault, an the floor wont' even up for nothing

gonna have to do something, but don't know what i done wrong, so gotta get my thinking cap on and figger it out. or just keep building, and have a crooked shed.



IRT to the bike, where's the base sticker from?

I find that the bike is the only time that i REALLY enjoy life and unwind.

we have a Gas Log that i was planning to spend big $$ to use this winter, but i may as well use the Heat Pump & electricity as pay for propane.

I hear you on the unwinding, But it makes more sense to have a truck at -40* than a bike. Keeping both just wasn't in the cards this time.
