Good morning, Al. Are the Harleys feeling neglected since the Kawasaki showed up?

Hope not. Ultra got as good bath on Tuesday and some good exercise yesterday. Springer is warm and comfy under a cover with a Battery Tender. I'll move the KAW into another garage on Dec, 7, though.

Good Morning Woodzers.

Wife's GM broke her hip yesterday and is having surgery this AM. 84yo patriarch of the family. Wife is pretty preoccupied last night and this AM.

Coffee is on and breakfast is ready.
