Today, we are having Marge's family over for a late lunch. She is cooking sinigang and I'm grilling chicken on my Old Smokey. Undecided for tomorrow, but I'd like to get the heck out of this mudpit neighborhood, maybe go to Lake Conroe.

...Happy LABOR DAY!
 
Staying home in the rain....Tomorrow going to the Borough park to watch the Labor day parade and Harass the dignitaries then at night go up to the carnival to watch the fireworks, This will be my 45th year... Sorry to say the carnival and the parade's are getting smaller every year....:(
 
No plans for the weekend here. Too hot to ride comfortably even in the Stallion. Looking for a cold front through Tuesday, I think. Hope so. Taking a three wheel safety course starting Monday and extending through Wednesday. Already have my motorcycle endorsement, which the safety course is really for, but maybe will learn some new tricks - can't hurt.
 
Memorial Day???

Waiting for it to come around again next year since it was just here this past May!! :laugh:

Zook...your beard has grown since your last avatar pic!

Hope you and Marge are still able to make Kerrville.

Wish it was Memorial Day...... That means that Summer is right around the corner and all the snow is gone.......:laugh:
 
No plans for Memorial Day, however.........For Labor Day I am "working". Need to be at a job site for the week in VA Beach. So riding down on Monday and trading the day for one in end of month. To reiterate, riding 422 miles on a national holiday.....and getting paid to do it. Life is good. Beats the alternative. And I can hang with a buddy who lives near there (he's retired Navy). End of month heading to same friend for Octoberfest party, but 4 - wheels for Mrs Bozo.:qpnmt:

Hey, Zook, beards looking good.
 
Puddin' & I are spending the weekend riding to Maggie Valley. I coulda stayed home & done some cleanup, but what the hell, it'll be there when I get back!

Beautiful day riding back roads thru Louisiana yesterday, today we went to Russell Cave in Alabama, and run around looking at the Tennessee River. Overnighting here, then going to Lookout Mountain in Tennessee tomorrow, early, then on to Maggie Valley.

Jr asked, someone please tell EasyJerry to ice down the beer!
 
I worked Saturday and today have Monday off,installed my oil filter relocation kit,cleaned the trike.Hooked the trailer up and made sure all the lights are working and did a pretrip inspection and have been nursing a sick wife(first cold of the year).
 
What is this Winter thing?Come back to FLA where it is warm;)

No, I'll pass. I had 30 years of hurricanes

when I lived there. I was getting tired of the bugs and humidity, the sand that always got in the house and stepping on those dreaded sand spurs, the fire ants and the heat. I got the job offer in PA and went for it, enjoyed my first autumn and then winter :cold:. Health-wise I feel much better and my breathing isn't labored from the heat and humidity and I am not longer throwing up from the heat.
 
The plan is retrieve Grandson from egg donor and get him fed he will be hungry. Spend remainder of beautiful day making grandson happy as well as G-ma alias (bride). Time permitting maybe even a short evening ride just to get the dust off from days activities.ThumbUp :Excited: Have a safe Holiday travel safely Fred
 
Got my cleaning done and everything for summer put up. Watching the chubby groundhog eat away at the vegetation at the abandon property, its like having your own nature preserve. Hummingbirds were feeding on the flowers a couple of weeks ago. Garbage is ready to go out later when I go back downstairs.

Hope everyone had a great labor Day Weekend. :)

Well seeing as today is my birthday, I guess I will be getting a year older...LOL Went for a 300 mile ride around Galveston, Angleton, Hitchcock, with friends, and wife made carrot cake cupcakes. Great day.
 
Went to the annual labor day parade, This was my 45th year, Parked the trike next to the DPW boss, And helped him move cones around to block the side streets , Stayed for the whole parade, Like i said before there getting smaller every year, The fire truck and all their apparatus from all the surrounding towns were there , As always, But the bands and such were thin, No military vehicles this year, The WW2 Tin Can Sailors were there, But time is catching up to them....Only 3 on foot two more in a pickup ringing a bell from a Ship, [Destroyer] ....I remember when there was a whole contingent marching...:(

I might go to the fireworks tonight....
 
We will probably take a ride about an hour up the road for some crab cakes and she-crab soup. :pepper: Then take the long way home. :biglol:

Fifty miles up, eighty miles back. Funny how that happens.

Everybody had the same idea. There were members from three different MC there. Lots of Ultras, and crotch rockets. A Victory and an Indian and one Goldwing with a Motortrike conversion.

Might not be able to see it, but I'm the one with the blue arrow pointing to it.
