Good morning! Are you up yet? What's your plans for today?

[maraudinglizard]

Load feeders for the chickens, flip the gate panel to paint primer on the front side, replace a trailer tire, didn't get the mail yesterday so I will do that this afternoon, and mow some more grass.

You're some kind of a bionic woman, Miss Kris, no doubt 

Rick, I haven't even got started good yet. I don't like being bored at all, I will find something to do.

You remind of one of my eldest sister’s workers, a Manang Ping-ping, whose now deceased son was my BIL’s driver years ago, Miss Kris. The guy “borrowed” one of the company vehicles, a Ford Ranger, w/o permission one Sunday and crashed it head-on, stern side, with a bus. Instantaneous death for him and his wife who was at the backseat right behind him.

Anyway, that woman was an automaton and was a very good and clean worker 👍

Dang, I'm still recovering from Wednesday!🥱

Mornin, Happy Saturday!
Boy do I need a weekend... No plans, nothing nadda.
Gonna shoot as much as I can, putz around cleaning the property, and later maybe put a fire in the fire-pit with some adult beverages is all I want to do.

Dang, I'm still recovering from Wednesday!🥱

Thursday was a REALLY bad day for me, both physically and mentally. I was in a very dark place in my own mortality... Friday got better as the day went on.
 At the end of the day, last night, I got a call from my S.I.L. that Daughter #3 is pregnant. This is "wonder baby" #2 for them as she had cancer that lead to a double mastectomy at age 28, was told she'd be sterile for life because of the treatments she received.
 Now 8 years later she is "expecting" again. This will be my Grand child #11.

 Lord works in mysterious ways indeed. This morning I have a whole new vigor and a drive to keep going!

[Ronfiveo]

Scott, sorry to hear about the dark times, but I'm so glad that they are brighter today.
Indeed God most definitely does work in mysterious ways. Please PM me if I can be of any
assistance of any kind.

I'm still waiting on the Tru Oil to arrive. I am very anxious about starting the whole finishing
process. I can do no more with the stock until it does arrive .

Have a great day everyone.

Mornin..
Another no specific plan kinda day for me. I think I finally got my laptop issues sorted. This is an older Windows 8 HP model 15 with AMD chipset. I had Windows 7 Pro and some of the drivers got corrupted. No longer supported so I went with Linux Mint. All I had on hand was 19.1, 19.3 and 2.0 all of which are expired.
Virginia 21.3 was just too taxing on it so I finally went with 21.3 Xfce. So far so good. Not one lock up this far so I think I'm good to go now. All updates are installed and it's actually pretty snappy.
I'm going to strip it down some more because there are things in it that I would never use. I have the desktop for any type of file, picture or a/v manipulations.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Now that daylight has broke it is a beautiful clear blue sky morning... although chilly.
Might just dig out the "Old-Wing" and my leathers and go for a jaunt.
 It's been a while and we both need it.

Scott, a old buddy of mine stopped in last night for a visit, I was telling Nortdammit about your bikes, He has a nice GW, but also a rarer Norton that he is restoring. A beast of a classic for sure.
 Was looking for some pics of them you posted but no luck.

Nice looking ride, Scott.
Looking at the wheels it looks like a mid 80s bike.
I always wanted one but had to settle for an 1981 Honda CB750 Custom (CB750C).

Good morning GTA! Happy Saturday! I slept in until about 0600. I got all the mowing done yesterday after work. No real plans for today. But, I left the mower outside, so we could go out to dinner. I’d like to clean the mower up and put sharp blades on it, then put it back in the garage. I might find something else to do, or just shoot airguns.

Mine are BSA's...  No Nortons (yet) but a Manx has been on my bucket list.

She's an '81 GL1100.
I also had a '81 CB750C that I got as a basket case and butchered built into a cafe' bike.
Had to sell it because the darn thing brought out the speed demon and wanted to kill me!

[Blowpipe Sam]

Mornin y'all!.  Glad you are doing better Scott.

Flytrap got up and walked outside this a.m.  The Iron Maiden got her to drink some water.  She still won't eat but this is encouraging.

The memsahib recovered from her bout with food poisoning and is feeling much better.

I'm thinking about pretending to go turkey hunting just to get out of the house.  I won't see any turkey.  Too many Gomers loose in the woods on a Saturday.  It will be fun though to just sit under a tree and practice my calling.

  Good Morning! The storm has past, local temps in the valley are ranging from 35°F to 41°F.
There is snow in the nearby mountains again with a temp of 18°F about 12 miles as the crow flies from us. The nearest hill slopes are clear with no snow showing though. We only got a half inch of rain at my place out of this storm.

  We are supposed to have a high of 63 today, 65 tomorrow, 70 Monday, 77 Tuesday, 83 Wednesday, 87 Thursday, and 81 Friday, then 69, 73, and 79. Lookin good for the next 10 days!

  I need to work on my taxes, Yes I Have Been Putting that off! I was going to do it yesterday but my thoughts went another direction. 

[avator]

Mornin..
After coffee I wandered out to the Red Shed and fired up Casting Corner. I tinkered with a "lego" pistol/carbine rear cocker until I got it working and put it in a short bag and stuck it in the utility box on the back of the Rancher 420 where it will live.
After breakfast I'll pure a mess of little shiny things.

I had a CBR600f3 that was trying to kill me. Luckily it was stolen and the insurance covered just about everything I bought it for. Only had maybe 6k miles.

This was my last street bike. It's a 1998 cbr1100xx black Bird.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Ooooohh nice Blackbird!
About 1988 a buddy of mine showed up with a new Hurricane first "tupperware" bike I ever road... I had to lean over the handle bars shifting into 3rd to keep the front wheel down! 

I like my bikes naked.. A '90s "Big One" is on my bucket list.

Way back when big, naked fours were called standards, or just plain motorcycles, a handful of fresh-face engineers at Honda R&D; were dreaming up something different. Something they wanted to ride. Working after hours and weekends without adult supervision, they called that bike the Big One. Senior management liked the idea, which evolved into the 1992 CB1000. When it came to America two years later, everyone with an aversion to cruel ergonomics and acres of plastic bodywork liked it, too. And unlike the average mid-’90s standard, there’s nothing standard about this one...

[Blowpipe Sam]

My last "street bike"  was a 1986 Honda XR 500 desert racer with a Baja Designs street lighting kit installed.  I had it configured as a Super Motard racer and used it as a delivery bike on the streets in Los Angeles.  I used to love to traffic dance on that bike.  I owned an 86 GSXR750 and a 75 BMW R75/5 at the same time but sold them before the Honda.

The memsahib is rather biased against motorcycles.  Might have something to do with one of my legs being shorter than the other now.

You could be Indiana's Naked Rider but with a mask on, Scott sir

Sold the life threatening bikes and wife/kid bikes, still have a Honda XR600 and a Buell M2 Cyclone taking up space.   They are both in excellent, undamaged, low mileage condition, unridden for years.   I've had too much joint damage to ever take a chance riding a motorcycle again.   Not sure if I could even get a leg over the seat.    I may not ride them but I really like gazing at them once in a while.

My gazing-@-attitude doesn't apply to bikes though
