Nice Mike!

Today's adventures, after having lunch at Village Green with Josiah.

Mods have already started.



I took the plate mount off the left tail light, and installed on the fender. It hung about 6" off the pavement, and it was only a matter of time before it got cleaned off. I bought a lighted mount and VOILA. That is french for "check that sh#t out!".



Next mod, LEDs.

it is raining very hard here. the parking lot has a small stream running through it. i should advise the hotel that they could save a lot of money if they build a hydro-electric plant on the stream.

I think the hotel should use the energy from the toilets being flushed to generate electricity.

I like potatoe chips.
