Talking Insulated big-girl panties

Its cold. Its rainy. Its Saturday. Its a road trip.

I'm coming to visit, Asheville NC. Beware, I ate onions with breakfast!

The rest of you should go for a putt today. If you aren't too busy polishing your chrome-plated training wheels.

High 30's this morn. Goin' to mid 50's. Foggy, 'cool' and drizzly. Chop is 'ready to roll'. Momma took a 'bye' and went to work indoors. COWARD!!!! Tomorrow, high in the low 30's, 25 - 40 mph winds. YET another layer required.
Get's much 'better', will have to relocate to the FLH (it has a WIMPSHIELD)

RIDE ON, onions and ALL !!!!!!!!!! (This is ONE time I 'reluctantly' would run the 'tailgunner' spot as normal for me.)
