    Sitting in my buddy’s living room, I sold it to his brother years ago because I needed the money IMG_8532.jpg
    I bought the bike from my other buddies dad for $800. , sold it two years later to my buddies brother for $900. That was in 78’-79’ can’t imagine what it’s worth today, all original paint, some minor touch up

    I was in a Costco or Sam's Club once and they had a similar looking bike by the front door as a display, and they were selling them. Something like $600/800 and the story was the bikes were stored in crates in a warehouse and forgotten since the sixties. Some Italian or Czech brand, or something obscure. Probably very hard to find parts for.

    Having a neighborhood get together later this afternoon to celebrate our street finally getting repaved after close to 40 years!
    Had a special order sheet cake ordered from Costco, the decorator lady said she could not put any cuss words on it though.
    We wanted it to say "About Damn Time!" It's fine the way it came out anyway.

    I like the Gorilla carts, and the Gravely is appropriate for the haul. (We had a Gravely tractor for blowing snow off the larger floating docks in Cordova AK, but later switched the fleet to Honda track-drive walk-behind blowers as the guys stayed warmer with the exercise.) :hattip:

    Grass fed beef burgers and corn on da cob. I screwed up, taking husks off of one ear by habit. Face palm.

    Evening all:

    :laughing:, maybe at one time when the places that we are hunting were loaded with deer.
    If things are as bad as last year, I was thinking about making up a sign with "will work for venison" and standing out by the road with it, maybe someone will take pity on me! :rolleyes: It's either that or start patrolling for fresh roadkill!
    Even if we get a deer with my buddies 2 grandsons with us it normally would get split 4 ways, that's when you find out that deer aren't as big as most people think they are. If one of them would get a deer I think I will just let them share it and hope that my buddy and I can get one to share They can get a deer out, but it's still up to either my buddy and I to gut it, then skin it and butcher it up, they don't know how to do that yet. Always the option to just take it to a butcher, but I like getting my own meat back which isn't always guaranteed at some butchers, especially when it comes to things like sausage where they make big batches of it.
    Soon time to put a trail cam out on my property, only seen a few doe and a small buck around so far, and the bear with her cubs.
