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

I agree Sister. Even though it is overcast with rain today and tomorrow I will take that over cold, snow and ice. So ready for Spring.

Hope everyone made it through the Big Suck okay.

Mags! What a very shiny surprise! So good to see you here!

Happy Hump Day to all the Troops. For those of the blood, it is Odin's Day! Skol!

Hope everyone is having a good week so far. Two days of rain here, but I'll take that over snow. At least the first warmer days of pending Spring on creeping up on us here in the Old Dominion.

Keep her beneath the purplebellies radar, and avoid them Reavers browncoats!

Excited for Vikings tonight. Sure hope Lagertha wises up to Ecbert's plotting.

My plans for the weekend? Tax refund is pending to drop tomorrow. Get the bike back Saturday, sunny and warm Sunday..... Guess what I'll be doing. ;)

Give that lovely lady a prize!

Sunny and cool here today, but rain is supposed to move in tonight and keep it damp all day tomorrow, though it is supposed to be in the 60s. Sunday should be nice and conducive to riding.

Can't wait until you see Vikings so we can talk about it! Great episode last night!

Hope everyone is having a good Friday so far. Happy Freya's Day!

I knew you would like the episode of Vikings. Glad Lagertha wised up and told Ecbert she is not his fool. Not sure how cozy Ragnar truly is with Ecbert. He is not happy about the constantly changing terms of the agreement regarding what his warriors must do to secure the farm land they were promised. What is to keep them secure? Especially if their leaders are back in their own homeland.

Sunday was a beautiful day! Wife and I rode for about 3 hours. Warm and sunny, even if a bit windy. Today we are supposed to hit 72. Going to make for one great ride home!

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Hope everyone is having a good week. It's finally Friday! Now if we can just get the clock to speed up to 5 we'll be all set.

I can totally see why too! Got the pics (thanks again for sending them!) and the restoration your hubby did was simply amazing. It is obvious that he is passionate about restoring vintage bikes and that love came through in his bringing this pretty lady back from the brink. The trophy, prize money, and honor were well deserved.

Fingers crossed for you and hubby, Sister!

Dreary, overcast Hump Day, but at least the rain held off so I could ride. Looks like thunderstorms for Thor's Day, which seems fitting, and rain on Friday as well. At least the weekend looks to be sunny and high 50s. Should be good for riding on Saturday. Sunday we get our new puppy, Sjöfn.

Yes, a new puppy. She is an adoption, she is 7 weeks old and just weaned. Full blooded Australian Shepherd. She has the bluest eyes and sweet disposition. We pick her up this Sunday and the wife and I are both excited. Have pics if you'd like me to send you a couple Sister.

Just beat the rain and thunder to work this morning. All of it has blown over now and it should be dry and 76 when I leave this afternoon. Going to make for a beautiful ride home this afternoon.

I would love to have her ride the bike w/ me! Maybe get a sidecar w/ a restraint harness for her so she is safe and comfortable.

You are most welcome, and thank you! She is quite cute, and a bundle of energy. When she tires out she just flops down wherever she is and is out like a light in seconds. Soundest sleeping pup I have ever seen. Now if we could just get her to sleep through the night. Was up with her four times last night to take her out. Going on about 3 hours of sleep. Forgot what it was like to have a small puppy in the house.

Glad you have good weather today Sister. Means we will have it tomorrow. Woke up to rain this morning so didn't ride in. Supposed to stop around mid day, but no sun until tomorrow.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Had a good ride in this morning. 72 here this afternoon and sunny so I am looking forward to the ride home here in about an hour.

Puppy slept much better last night. We got her out in the yard to play, she played with the younger cat in the house, and by bed time she was wore out. She only got me up three times last night for a trip outdoors. :)

Hump Day Eve. Hope everyone is having a good day of it so far.

Hump Day! Now if the weekend forecast will just be sunny if not warm.

Little one only got me up once last night so her schedule is starting to fall in line with ours. Of course she had me running with her in the back yard before work this morning. Guess we both needed the exercise.

Hope everyone is having a good week of it so far. Stay below the radar troops.

Thanks Sister. She only got me up once last night, so I figure another week and she should be sleeping through the night. I am looking forward to the weekend with her. Supposed to be sunny and in the mid to high 60s. We'll take her to the park to run and play. Should be a lot of fun. May even pack a picnic lunch to take with us and make a day of it.

Friday Eve! 73 and sunny. Going to make for a great ride home shortly.

Good on the hubby being off from work. Wish I was, but the day is passing quickly enough.

Nothing wrong with a good ol' thunderstorm. I enjoy them myself. I especially like them at night. Sound of the rain and rumble of thunder always lull me to sleep.

You catch Vikings last night? What did you think?

Hope everyone has a good Friday, weekend, and if you celebrate it, Easter. As for me, I will offer up mead to Eoster for a bountiful Spring.

Good morning all! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Those that celebrate it, I hope you had a good Easter. We had a small ceremony of offering, presenting mead to Eostre for a bountiful Spring.

Got in some riding Saturday while the weather was nice and had a HOG chapter meeting that morning. Lots of rides and rallies planned. Can't make some of the big ones due to prior obligations, but we're going to make all the ones we can this year.

I would not want to be in Floki's position either. If things do not go well it will fall on Floki, but perhaps that was Ragnar's plan. The sneak peek at next week things certainly do not seem to be going the way of our heroes.

Rain started here last night and is supposed to continue pretty much right on through until tonight. Hope it clears up enough to ride tomorrow. Don't mind driving "Lola", my '67 Ford pick up, but you know I prefer to be in the saddle.

Big Suck is behind us so that is good news. Hope everyone is having a good week of it so far. Keep flyin' under their radar browncoats.

Well, it's a humid day here in TN…the weather pukes are already screeching about HORRIFIC STORMS for later in the week. If a tornado takes the house..I'll see if our insurance can cover building a full scale replica of Serenity.
