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

Indeed. The Big Suck is upon us. Of course it brought rain with it this morning, but thankfully light showers and they let up an hour ago. Hopefully it will be dry enough by 5 to ride home without dirtying up the bike.

The weekends do seem to be short, but I suppose that makes us treasure them more.

Speaking of weekends I hope that everyone enjoyed theirs and had fun. Not too many warm ones left before Winter begins to settle in.

Cool and misty Tuesday morning here in TN; at least Big Suck is over….
Our building was 'blooded' last week when one of the crew got his head split open by a flying wrench!
I had to play nurse…and clean him up and bandage up his head. He's okay..but will have one hell of a black eye and headache!
Have a great day!

Calling for slight chance of thunderstorms on Friday. Hopefully it doesn't clear the Valley and head east. Had to cancel our trip to The Dragon this weekend due to heavy rain in that area tomorrow & Saturday morning. Going to try to make it next weekend.

Finally have my Fridays off for the rest of the year. Yay for long weekends!

Hope everyone is doing well and prepping for Fall. Take care 'Coats. Stay shiny.

Big Suck......'nuff said.

Glad to hear the crew is hard at work on the building Sister. Hope it is up quickly.

I trust everyone had a good weekend. Cool here. A balmy 46 degrees this morning when I got in the saddle to ride to work. Needless to say that woke me up real effective like. LOL

Everyone have a good week. Stay off the feds radar and most importantly, KEEP FLYIN'!

Hopefully the storms are past now Sister. Had some rain around 3am here. No thunder, but rain heavy enough to wake me up out of a sound sleep. Need the rain though so I won't complain.

Minor surgical procedure on my foot today. Nothing big, but needs to be done.

Hope everyone is enjoying Hump Day so far.

Keep flyin' 'coats!

Seen that storm front on the news. Supposed to crest the mountains and head our way tonight / tomorrow. Not looking forward to it, but gladly take it on if it means buying my brothers and sisters in Tennessee some relief.

Stay dry and warm Sister.

Thanks for the good thoughts, BC1;

Friday Eve. Boot is off, foot is healing well according to the doctor, I have been cleared to ride after a week, and the weather is nice out today. Rained all day yesterday, but dry and warmer today.

Hope it dries up enough soon Sister that they can get back to work on the building.

Take care everyone.

Agreed. Cool one this morning for the ride to work, mercury coming in at 40 degrees. Bundled up for the ride and a cold day in the saddle is still better than any day in the office.

Hope everyone had a good weekend. Weather is sunny here, a break from the clouds and rain last week, and while the temps are cool it is still beautiful outside.

Hope everyone has a good day today!

Happy Hump Day Eve troops! Big Suck in the rear view!

A bit warmer this morning. 54 degrees made for a much more pleasant ride into work. 72 today so think I will be doing some leaf raking this evening after work. Yard is looking much like Fall. Still have to pick up a couple of pumpkins for carving and seed roasting.

Hope the workers are back on the job today Sister.

Keep Flyin' browncoats!

Good news on the storage building progress Sister! Moving is always interesting, especially when you find things you had completely forgotten about. LOL

Hump Day! Everyone have a great day!

No ride yet…caulking continues. I don't think you're supposed to be able to see daylight UNDER the building where it's 'attached' to the floor. Rats, mice, bugs, etc. Not good for antique motorcycles.
You all have a great Sunday…I hear winter is coming back for a visit next week.
