Yep. I walk or use a bicycle daily. In the summer I use my motorcycle to run slightly farther errands (90% within ten miles and my bike gets 75-80 MPG). But I'd sure love to have something affordable and enclosed for that type of errand in the winter. Under ten K would be my cost limit...

My dad is a 91 year old retired NASA aerospace engineer. "Use the proper tool for the job", was pounded into my head. If I'm gapping a plug, setting point gaps, or adjusting valves I use feeler gauges measured in the thousands of an inch. Don't yall carry tool boxes in yer vehicles? Yall are...

We finally got up in the sixties F so I planted a blackberry and a raspberry cane in my yard. I also gave my hardtail it's first wash, and conditioned the leather saddle and batterybox cover. As best as my butt can tell, the coefficient of friction on that saddle is approaching zero! I...

The next village over just had a BIG motorcycle rally over Memorial day weekend. I skipped it like I skip all bike events. It's a good thing too because the Banditos did some bike mounted drive-bys and killed several guys, and injured more...

I took the hardtail into Cimarron Canyon State Park for some nice twistys!

As an anthropology nerd with a HUGE interest in human evolution, I found this fascinating: https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/05/world/homo-naledi-burials-carvings-scn/index.html

I was gonna take the day off, but I was asked to do some repairs on antique jewelry. When I was done I couldn't resist playing a bit on my diamond wheels... Two new Cabochoms. Turquoise and Malachite.

Grow Room. (But day_tripper is probably right. It's probably a smoking cubicle where some poor dominated dude went to smoke his cigars.)

This evening's project: lapis earrings.

My Fav Canadian band (sorry). This opened the album, but now I'm into the crunchy interior. :-)

While delivering some pieces to the gallery I sell at yesterday, a group of curvy biker chicks drug me over the coals for making rings sized "for little girls". I made this this morning. It's size 11 1/4. My curvy "real woman" wife has said the same to me.

I've bought, rebuilt, and sold several Ford 8N's, and one Ford 9N. I've never had a need to own a tractor, but if I did it would be a 8N without a doubt.

Home production of fuel requires a Federal license.

ANY distilling without a Federal distillation license is a Federal crime. As far as I know only New Zealand has legal home distillation.

I use fountain pens with permanent ink. It's often called "document ink". For winter time carry I even have freeze resistant permanent inks.

I just read "Victory City" by Rushdie. It's the best book I've read in a while. Layers within layers. Anyone that enjoys a playful and thoughtful use of language should read it.

She is beautiful. Black and white dogs tend to look really good.

We have one charger in the village I live in. It is in the parking lot at our public park. But because it's right in front of the door to the village office, it's always blocked by folks doing business at the office. It would have been much smarter to put it all the way to the opposite...

I got the key to the highway...
