Myrtle Beach Fall Bike Week

And I can't go. Came down with a head cold middle of the week and don't think an outing on the bike would be advisable in this weather---it has drizzled on and off today and turned cooler. Would love to ride down tomorrow (Saturday) but probably will not. Harley probably thinks I don't love it anymore.

Had to make quick trip to Marion during my lunch hour, and there were bikers everywhere on their way to the beach. Yeah, I was a little jealous. While I was in Marion I saw a guy pulling a bike on a trailer and the bike had fallen over. I stopped and helped him right it and tie it back down. He was pulling a really sharp Triump. Did not hurt the bike, but I know it must have scared him. That's one of the reasons I don't like to trailer my bike---I spend as much time watching it in the rear view mirror as I do watching what's ahead.

Son Kevin worked on my new old truck yesterday (acquired a 1971 Ford p-450 delivery van for the farm). I was too sick and weak to help but enjoyed sitting down watching him rework the dashboard with new wires, etc. He knows a lot about that sort of thing from his work with the place that wired law enforcement vehicles. It was great to spend that kind of time with him, even if I was puny and honking a lot.

Be safe out there this weekend. Fall is just around the corner............
