    I just got back from the Redwood Run... What a great time!!! There were a ton of CycleFish members, some camping with us , and a lot more came by to say hi. The ride home was hell, at least 200 miles today where it never got under 110°. I am beat. More on the run and some pictures soon.

    FX, supposedly--it's only supposed to rain in the afternoon tomorrow and Thursday-so a breakfast run to Custer may be in the cards. We'll see.....
    As far as room for the bikes--they already have it! LOL When we were building the garage that was first on Clay's list! Build up the land high enough to keep it from getting flooded during Spring Melt! So--all the toys are taken care of!

    Got to mow the lawn!!! My push mower decided to not work, so I have to use the tractor on areas that are not meant for the tractor. Pain in the butt!!! My weed wacker has also s#@*t the bed, so it is getting pretty scraggley looking around here. Sometimes I hate being a homeowner...........................!!!!! I wanna call the landlord! Oh no,,,,,,,thats ME!!!!!

    Sorry SideKick, I tried to fix it...Maybe next time when I can bring more tools...

    Dude! You mean they make riding mowers?? All I have is a walk behind. Gonna do my lawn today to. I love the smell of fresh cut grass ( when I'm riding and it is someone else's grass).

    Just did an oil & filter change with a grease job on my Craftsman. I guess I should touch up the blades a bit. Been taking good care of it. Had to change the battery last week, it was 6 years old. Also had to change the little plastic lines on the weedeater, it kept pissing fuel down my right hip and finally quit running. New lines fixed it. Can you say firey stunts? Yep, riding around the yard wishing I was cruising down the highway. Oh well.... Next week... See y'all in Bolling Green.

    Oh yeah,  The ground was wet, but the dead grass wasn't.....but I had it mostly out by the time the fire truck got there.  The kicker was...the truck with the water drove past my house.  The 911 system where your house number is right by the road really doesn't work very well.   The next week a lady not too far from us did the same thing but she burned her house down and her propane tank exploded.

    That was a couple of years ago.  Since then I'm not really allowed to have matches or lighters.      The truck with the water had to go quite a ways to find a place to turn around on our road.

    Rex, if I tried to mow all that I mow with a walk behind I would die of a heart attack 1/3 the way through (if not sooner)! I have 33 acres to tend to and to keep from overtaking my "fenced in" yard! I do have horses--but they can't keep up in the spring.  My husband bought me a Polaris Rzr with a Swisher pull behind electric start mower after our first year here--he loves me so much! Doesn't want me to overwork myself!

    Well, since my little brother offered to do the mowing, I decided to jump on the bike and take a ride. Stopped and visited with friends, yaked it up for a while, went to the vets and picked up medicine for the dog, rode around and stopped at my favorite rest stop on my way home for a smoke and a couple of phone calls.

    I think you might have......LOL
    She is a nice little bike, great to learn on. I am about ready to go a bit bigger now! She goes pretty good with 6 gears, but I get blown all over the road when it is windy or when trucks go by. Sometimes I feel like a bobble head doll. LOL
