View attachment 3747974 View attachment 3747975 So in order to offset some of the evil I do, I do a couple of charity rides a year. This one has been going on for 20 years and is the main source of funding for a local empty stocking fund. Always have a great turn out. Used to turn into one heck of a party. Still does, but I'm home by then, lol.

I almost always have 2 bikes for that reason. One to really ride, corner and burn and one for longer, interstate riding.

Long story but I had to give one up. So gave up the Honda and kept the Hog. Have regretted that several times. Took a lot of shit for having that bike in my world but I like to go fast! I was ask several times not to wear my rags whilst screaming through the country side, lol.
But now if I'm called on, it's likely more of a long distance trip and the rolling sofa is hard to beat (also storage for stuff). Still keeping my eyes out for something else. Not as fast though. Eyes aren't what they used to be.
But ya, these couches don't take much to scrape the floorboards.

Found another baby pigeon.

Usually I'm against taking a healthy animal away from its parents but this one's mother built the nest in the worst spot. I found a bunch of baby pigeon skeletons below the nest so I don't feel too bad about saving this one. After I grabbed the chick I destroyed the nest so she doesn't lay there anymore.

I wonder if I'll ever be able to get it to send notes to the wife while she's working.

We got ours used for around $125 each with the panels and buckets. Vet says that's the best way to raise them. Plenty of fresh air and they're not right next to each other if one were to get sick. Keeps them from sucking on each other too.

Wow!!! That cheap? They gave me an idea for storage spots around my place. Even the wood or metal little storage shacks from Home Depot, etc cost over a grand for an 8X8.

Where would I look for them? Thanks

I found them on craiglist. Some of the bigger farmers are going automated and putting in calf barns so you should be able to find these for a decent price.

Ya cruisers and rockets ride a lot different. TBH, If I was to get something to replace the Harley, it would probably be an Indian or a triumph.
Had a Buell briefly but my body just doesn't like the riding position. Also way to fast. In my drinking days, I had too many accidents as it was, lol.

There was once a bar here from light switch to end of boards...After ceiling and floor, a new one will be fabricated using pics of the original as a rough guide...It was illuminated on the front face, pretty cool for 1959...we'll update the new one a little, retaining the original spirit...everybody likes bar lights.
