After working 29 years for a corporation they decided it was time to put me to the street.

With that said I am downsizing, selling my Harley

I put it on craigslist in Jacksonville florida with pics.

I think it would make someone very happy to have this machine.

Been there and I feel for ya. They downsized me for a 20 something and a 1/4 of the pay.

I hope you make it through this and let us know when you get your new one.

Good luck

Sorry to hear about your woes Randy. Maybe its a good thing. Who knows where you will be this time next year and it might have all been possible because they took the path they did. Hears to saying "Screw em" I am moving on to bigger and better things. Good luck wiht your sale. Someone is going to get a great bike. You still have your other one right?

Thanks all. I still have my other bike which is a good all around bike, just not a Harley.

We actually had been planning for a while to eventually move to NE Georgia Mountains next year as I could work from home. But that was cut short by 1 year. However, the company is paying me for 12 months severance which is a blessing.

We are getting the house ready to sale and we hope we get a fair price for it rather quickly. I now have time to fix up things that needed attention.

3 bedroom 2 bath . Back all glass enclosed room and a swimming pool.

The right family will love this home.

It pays to have good friends, one of my real estate friends are going to list it for me and only charge the MLS fee! His part is free.

Hey....ya never know..this could be the start of a positive chapter in your life that will be better. Funny how things work out. Sometimes what seem like a negative works in your favor. Hang in their things happen for a reason, next year you will be looking back at this date and wondering why you were so worried.
