This chicken decided to lay an egg in one of my sister herbs.

Don't they know they have a million dollar chicken coup for such things?

I guess this one does


The all line up on that 2x4 to roost at night

Chicken pharmacy?

They probably have the best free range area in all of North America



All this for free eggs. She only started raising chickens because her daughter made her an egg collecting apron.                                           Have I ever mentioned to not believe everything I write?

She inherited this turtle some 22 years ago. I just fed it this once and now it thinks we are related and keeps following me around.

Just for fun

I've moved on to my other sisters house and my aunts sister came over to visit for awhile. 

My B-I-L is studying up for our next project

Shari is a great cook and Edith looks like her mouth is watering already :)

After I left San Diego and crossed into AZ, the riding temps were getting a little uncomfortable and I still had 180 miles to go.

By riding after dark, it had finally cooled off 19 degrees by the time I pulled into my garage.

A much shorter trip than last year, but still over 6,000 miles.
I enjoyed most of this trip but I'm discovering that my old body isn't able to take what it did just a couple of years ago. Next years ride will be much shorter as in half or less.

She has carried me to many places and never a breakdown or even minor repair yet due to a factory issue. It was right here that it happened I'd wager that I'm not the only one to take a picture of this while rolling along. After enduring three days of 100* plus days and not thinking once to replenish my electrolytes, we arrived with me being as sick as I can remember in many years from heat exhaustion. I said my quick hello's and then headed to the rain locker to try and cool out. Even after four days, I am still trying to regain what little strength this old body still has.  When Sherm and I awoke the  next morning we took the CAR into Sturgis where I got some electrolytes to try and start my road to recovery. Replacing those had an almost immediate  effect on how I felt, but still a long way to go. Sherm heard that the Rapid City Powersports had a 900 Kawasaki that he thought he would like, he didn't. On the otherhand, I think these Vanderhall's are way cooler tha

Quick stop in Kingman for tacos as I start my first trip of the year. Sherm gave me instructions for how to get to Pancho's but following those I arrived here which is not Pancho's. I have ridden over this bridge at least two times a year since it was built and I've always wanted to stop and use the walkway. I never seemed to have the time until this year. Now I'm a little worried about being able to climb to the top. Ugh! On the way up I needed to stop and rest so I took a picture so all of the other people climbing wouldn't think I was a wimp. Another rest stop. Hoover Dam. Lake Mead is still pretty low. A lot of horsepower of electricity is generated here. Looks like Arizona has a bridge to nowhere too! From the current water level to the top of the high water mark on those rocks is currently 154' From the walk way you can see the highway (I-11) as well as the dam. From the highway you can only see the pedestrians heads. The geologist or civil engineers did a

June 23rd of 2024 and I'm heading out to another VROC rally. The plan was to meet Sherm in Flagstaff and continue on to Albuquerque for our first day. A good friend joined me at 6:00 this morning and gave me an escort for the first 250 miles before taking another route back home. Around 11:30 Sherm and I pulled into the El Rancho Hotel and Restaurant for lunch. It is a very interesting place with a cool history. You can read about it here in detail! Very ornate Mexican Decor Sherm getting his own pictures to post on FB We were getting hungry but we ordered too much. A nice lady offered to take our picture, helmet hair and all. In Albuquerque, my daughter gave us a complimentary room at the Hotel Andaluz Built in 1939 She couldn't make it in person but she is here in my heart! Everything in the building is very ornate. Sherm travels a little lighter than I do.  I ordered the Scallops Ricotta Sherm had the Spanish Paella  I couldn't finish my lunch, Sherm couldn't finish
