Sold the motorhome, a few days ago, then bought a 2003 Arctic Fox camper, and, then today spent 1000$ on 2 crowns on my teeth. Dang it.

Yep. Its claim to fame, albeit short-lived, was the first bike stock bike to break into the 11's in the standing quarter. Can't wait to get the carbs off and hopefully it's just a good cleaning.

Last night I traded my 1976 MGB for this 2000 XL1200C. It has less than 4,000 miles on it! My first Harley. I never got the HD mystique, in fact, I was jaded - always preferred Japanese brands and silently laughed at HD groupies. But darn! This is a pretty motorcycle and it's really nice to ride.

Congrats on the Sporty! Great bikes, especially the 1200. That one is super clean and has a lot of doo-dads. That will save you some good $$$.

Mrs. 2LZ is chomping at the bit for another Sporty. She's pretty much done with her big Victory and wants something more easily tossed on our curvy roads.

It was yesterday but I got home drenched and didn't fell like messing around.

I went to local Barn Sale to check it out. A lot of over priced crap with some hidden treasures. I scored a mid sixties Black & Decker recip saw, aka, B&D Sawzall, in its' unscratched steel case along with all the paperwork and a few unopened blades for twelve bucks. I thought I might have paid too much for an unopened can of Nears Foot Oil at $10, but we stopped at an antique store today and an empty can was going for $15.

Mrs. C and I did not walk out of the antique store empty handed. I came out with a 70's Coleman catalytic heater for seven. I didn't have that model in my collection. Mrs. C came out with a small book rack and a small drop leaf table. She spent more than me.

Also picked up two propane tanks for the Blackstone Griddle and the camper. And, proudly I might add, I walked away from a Buell Blast that the seller was asking $500 for. I don't need another project thumper.
