Life's a dream at 59



Well retirement is better than that "W" thing. Sat. rode to Columbus for the 2nd time this week. It 's a great bike road. Smooth, flat, 60 miles, maybe 12 cars/truck, & 1 jerk cop waiting near Columbus for speeders. Normally I only see Borber Patrol and military. But now the military is gone too. Only once in the last 10 years have I seem illegals jumping into the back of an old pickup. Had to drive over 20 miles to report them.


Sun. went swimming. Pool is cold. Had it up to 92. It's either raining or cold evenings for June. Pool is only 84 now. And Green. Can't stop the algae.


At least 1/2 of the weekends for the last 6-8 months the weathermen say it will be crappy but we can ride at least for awhile. Most guys don't even show up. They MIGHT get wet!


Linda's officially retiring. We are ready to sleep in, every day.


The new car, the Accord, still needs no servicing, if it was an American product we would have had it in twice by now. 5 1/2 months old.


After working on the carbs of all my 1100's they are getting 50 mpg. I'm still putting in over $100 per month in gas, so that like 1500 miles per month.

The photo is the Road of Death, one lane road with trucks going in both directions!

Is the cop a jerk cause he's there or did he give you a ticket?
