Thanks, Jim. By the way I had a Duece Coupe sighting today.

Y'all from Florida?


Seriously though...great work on the list.

I actually work in FL these days. No more of that road warrior stuff anymore and no more airplanes to work. Now I pilot a very low altitude, fast moving Harley back and forth across the state line. Been a bit rough of late though with all this rain! There is a pretty good web site for local events called "What's happenin on the redneck riviera". One of the Gulf Coast Abate guys keeps it up.

There was actually a little sun shine this morning so we took off to take advantage of it......Checked out the Robertsdale "Chicken Swap" first.....never been to one before.....but we had no chickens to swap and really did not want to buy any. Then up to Bay Miinette.....there is a small bike shop there called "The Motorcycle Shop". They supposedly have a swap meet the 3rd Sat of each month.....no one there today. Then the usual yard sales, liquidation/junk stores and flea markets down 59. Then over to summer scoops in Summerdale for some ice cream and shakes....then on home before the rains came in.

Went to the movies then....had to go see Expendables 2. I must have watched the first one a 100 times. Second one was just as good if not better!

No idea yet about tomorrow. What is everyone else up to tomorrow?

Memorial Ride for Ethio Knight for most who are braving the chance of rain.....
