Hey, my Grandparents used to have a house in Regency Park in New Port Richey
back in the late '70s, early '80s...
They're both long gone now but thanks for making me think of them

Thank you - I work half days on Fridays so I'm going to go over tomorrow afternoon...
Bike is around 10 miles away so I will trailer it home and then get it cleaned up and registered...
