    @BkerChuck and @Oldie2007 The pictures are great. Sorry about your friend's mishap @BkerChuck

    Good morning. Discovered I need a set of Rule router bits to fix my sister's table. The cost is not too bad. Getting ready for a 5-day weekend at the beach this coming weekend. I also have a Voting Chief Judge lesson learned meeting on Wednesday. Going to be an easy week.

    Good morning. Retirement will be there for you. I really enjoy your mural pics. We are headed up towards Clearfield PA at the end of next month. It is being billed as a woman cousin's craft weekend. I am the DD and will be hanging with my male cousins in the garage up in Wilcox PA.

    Retirement? I'll be working until noon the day of my funeral.

    Spent the weekend at my buddy's camp in the woods. It was extra chilly for this time of year, but we got a couple of stands set up so maybe I can at least see some deer this season.

    LOL!, I wish! It all fizzled out just North and West. Not a drop. Glad we didn't see the baseball size hail though. Another chance today.

    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals and Sue! Happy Monday. Off to the primary care Dr. for a wellness visit in a bit, then going to stop at the Detail Shop to see about clear tint for the windshield.

    We've been kinda dry except a couple of large rain falls. They cause the problems for our flat land in the Red River Valley.

    Go check out Denny's Beer Barrel Pub while you're in Clearfield. They've been on TV several times as one of the places with big eating challenges. Friend of mine did one of their 2 pound burgers once.

    Morning all:

    Again, some very cool car show and street art pics.:thumbsup:
    Not a bike guy, but that BMW bike is interesting!
    Glad the guy riding the motorcycle wasn't severely injured Chuck, still stinks to have the damage done to the bike. :(

    Off to a viewing and funeral in a couple hours, a childhood buddy and lifelong friend bit the dust @ 79 years old.

    Last night I stopped at my hunting buddies house, geez, not that he has enough pain to deal with, now he's getting shots in his eyes and said he will eventually go blind. :(:(

    BMW?

    If you're talking about my bike, the red one in all of my pics, that's actually a Yamaha FJR1300 but many people do mistake it for a Beemer. I find it amusing. Mine costs well under half of a comparable BMW with far lower maintenance costs and far better reliability.

    When it does, best see a Doctor ASAP!

    Can't like the last part on that one Carl! Hope his friends like you keep him happy.

    Another satisfied Doctor. So, it's off again at noon for more "invisible" work on Little Big Red. Having clear "tint" put on the windshield. Seems like a lot of what I do is invisible!

    No, not yours, it's a green one with crazy tires on it that Kurt posted along with the car pics., definitely a different look!

    Got it! Not sure how I missed it the first time though. Nice old airhead, not sure how I feel about what they did with it, but it looks cool.
