May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Rain held off all day Friday & Saturday. Made me a happy rider! :) Turned out to be a beautiful weekend. Got things done around the house and put some miles on the bike.

Wife's trike got delivered, so once she has her license she'll be riding with me too. Got a feeling she is going to love it!

Even though it is Monday, the dreaded Big Suck, I hope that everyone is having a great day. Prep week / travel week for those lucky enough to be making the trip to ATL for D*C. Safe travels to all.

Thanks Sister!

Hump Day Eve! Beautiful cool weather is past and it is heating up again. It was a great lull while it lasted.

Not long to the holiday weekend!

Hump Day is drawing to a close and I for one am ready. Long day at the office and I am ready to get in the wind for some two wheeled therapy.

Looking forward to the long weekend. Going to take it easy, get a few things off my list around the house, get the wife on the trike to get her used to it, and just relax.

Hope everyone is having a good week. Know a couple of the unit have made it to the Bunker in ATL for D*C tomorrow. Lucky bastards. Hope they all have a blast.

I want to go to D*C next year, but the 75th Anniversary of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is in Sturgis, SD just 3 weeks prior to the con. I can probably afford one, but not both, especially with the wife out of work again in two weeks. :(

So torn......

Happy Tuesday soldiers! Saw pics and read posts on FB from our contingent at D*C over the weekend. Looking forward to more pics and stories. Shots I saw showed about 8-10 76thers mixed in with the rest of the 'Coats so we had a fair showing.

I also hope everyone got home safely or are safely on their way home.

Jury duty? Hopefully it is not too unpleasant an experience Sister.

Glad you did not get picked up for jury duty. Also good for tackling the garage! It is amazing once you take on that project how much stuff has accumulated you thought you might need, never wound up needing, and just never got around to getting rid of.

Rainy Big Suck here, but what are you going to do? Thunderstorms all day, and rain or thunderstorms called for all week. *sigh* Going to be a long week.

Sorry to hear about the heat and humidity Sister. Second day of rain. Supposed to get a break Wednesday & Thursday and you know I am itching to get back into the saddle.

Good deal on catching up the laundry and making yoga class. Wish I could say I was as productive, but alas it is not so. :(

Hope everyone is having a good week. Big Suck in the rear view and we're sailing towards Hump Day. Stay Shiny people!

Consider it raised Sister! Skol!

Hope everyone is doing well. Not many cases of post con crud that I have heard about. Hope everyone got a chance to wish Niki a happy birthday earlier this week.

I am off from work tomorrow. Planning on getting in some riding prior to my trip to the dentist for a routine cleaning. Weather should be sunny and warm so will be a good way to kick off a long weekend.

Stay shiny people. Fly below the radar and avoid those gorram feds.

The Great Garage Project of 2014 is nearing completion. I am really amazed at how much room exists out there once the crap is gone. Now it'll just be easier to find something I need instead of running out and buying another… Of course, there's the issue of PUTTING STUFF BACK…we'll see how that goes!
Happy Tuesday, all.

Yes, Hump Day at last! Just knew it was going to be a long week when I woke up yesterday all excited thinking it was Hump Day, only to look at the calendar downstairs and realize it was only Tuesday. *sigh*

Weather has been beautiful! Cool in the mornings here (low 60s) and high 70s to low 80s here for the past few days. Supposed to creep back up into the mid 80s this weekend, but clear skies making for beautiful riding weather.

Hope everyone is having a good week!

OOoo…GOOD Idea, Browncoat1!!
Actually it's for the motorcycle stock from my husband's business that's closing. He'll have plenty of 'leftovers' in bikes and parts so rather than pay rent on a structure…we decided to build in here!! Might want to have the inside looking like Serenity's hold, though…heh.

Now there is a brilliant idea! How could would that be to have a recreation of Serenity's hold to have as a shop / storage area. Of course I would have to come and hang out in it. ;)

Good news on the progress. Not so much the rain. That weekend rain you are seeing must be the Monday / Tuesday mess they are predicting for us next week. Already lost two days in the saddle this week w/ rain I can do without for awhile.

Hope everyone has had a good week. Friday! Weekend is in sight! Hope everyone has some fun planned for the weekend and they can stay off the feds radar.

Last Friday I will be working this year! So stoked!
