Maybe in November or so. Busy here real busy. Why do you ask?

 

If you were going I was thinking Johnny, you, and I could meet up

 

Sounds good to me. I need to get away from here. Work and other things are wearing me down.

I will have to look into that Mike and my work schedule. Its really hectic so I really dont know right now. Its suppose to get worse in Oct and Nov. Pending on this and that. If theres a good chance I will get in touch with you.

Thanks for the headsup.

Cruisin' The Coast

 

Good morning Louisiana, hope you guys had a great weekend! Man, that cruisin' the coast is quite the deal!

 

Mikey, I sure hope I'll be up and ready to go , I could really use some away time and can't think of anywhere I would rather go, in the past I've found the 2nd weekend usually had more events going on for us spectators, but of course there will a ton of super nice rides to look at either weekend, lets see what the doctor tells me next Tuesday & if at all possible we then can make some plans where to meet up & what to do when we get there.

 

Good morning Louisiana, happy Tuesday!

 

Johnny I'm shooting for Oct 13th

Morning Pat how's thing up your way ?

Morning La

 

Morning Mike. Doing good, except for my forearms. Spent 7 hours yesterday, spraying stain on my new fence. Fells like someone took a bat to my forearms!

 

Haha come work with me and hold a weedeaters for 8-10 hours. Your arms will feel like jello at the end of the day.

 

Yeah, I'm sure! I'm just glad mine is done. Still finishing up my neighbors fence, we worked out a deal for me to do his, also. I'm not doing that until tomorrow, giving my arms a break from 2 days of spraying!

 

Good Morning Mike & Pat, it's good for you guys to work hard, in fact I'm jealous, I would like nothing better than being able to go open the store, OH WELL, my time will come LOL< LOL

 

Morning Johnny, how you doing, man?

 

Almost time to start packing!! Heading out to Canada for my 3rd trip for school on the 21st of next month. Just 2 more trips and I'll have my degree!!!!
