Joy oh Joy!

Today I put a new battery in my Honda MC, cleaned the cobwebs off it and took it for a ride.

First I had to pour in some Sea Foam to pump up the gasoline.
Then pump up the tires and clean the windshield.

Then I had to fix the rider up some as well. A couple of Naproxen tablets to ease the pain in my right hip and I was finally ready to ride.

My first ride in over a year and a half. What joy as the day was perfect, not too windy, temps in the upper 60's and relatively little traffic as it was mid day in a work week.

I'm gonna do it again when it gets light enough. Its only 10 to 5am here now.

I hope you guys have as good a day as I am going to have!

Red

That sounds great! Maybe I'll take the truck and go have a look see at some old mining towns hear here!
Have a good one!
Correction: Just remembered, I have tickets to see the D-Backs vs the Chi Sox over at Chase Field. I will be there!

The mining towns are pretty kewl. Some of them are completely abandoned and as they were in the past, while others are still active altho' you can still see the old buildings and stuff.
D-Backs are now in 1st place!

I always wanted one of those old buildings for my yard as long as its not to big...

I'd settle for a shed that resembled one of those old buildings you see in great photos..

Believe me they are still out there, by the hundreds! Another thing I find interesting are the old neighborhoods that people have fixed and kept up over the years. Some of them are very picturesque

TT, you might look for an old barn that needs to be torn down. Might be able to buy or get for free some weathered lumber to build such a shed.
