Must be Saturday, it's cold and snowing!!!!!!! Had the big Yamaha out New Years Day, had a blast. Went riding with a couple friends in some really kewl hilly country east of Elk Point over in Iowa..... Still haven't found top end on that 1000cc 4 stroke monster, but it's beyond 80mph, I know that!!!!! Ran into an old Yamah rep I hadn't seen for a number of years, he's sending me some information on a turbo-charger system for the sled.....Hmmmmm.

Anyway, my upholstery guy is sick still, so now seat and headliner for the '71 yet....Been messin' with the 'maro trying to get all the floor and subframe work done so I can start on the suspension.... Sure is tempting to set that big block Ford in there!!!!! Couple of chebbie guys here in town that actually still speak to me, that would end that, huh??????

Dave I really need to get to Madison again and pay you a visit. Was looking at an axle for my small landscape trailer. I forgot the tape but I think frame is more narrow than the mounts for the springs that are on the axle. So it would be more welding. Oh well.

So far I am hardly getting any of my winter projects done. Glad its a long winter. At least the flooring is done in the living and dining rooms.

Not very good. I was expecting close $100 in tips but, i wasnt even close to that. I only ended up with $41 in tips. I guess people spent all their money on beer and just enough for pizza. Oh well i guess. at least i made some money.

Dave how have you been? You havent been on lately have you?

Howdy guys... hope the new year is starting off well for you all.

I'm officially an Elk Point resident. My back hurts! Should have the rest of the stuff done by this weekend. It is great having a garage again, and so far the vehicles all fit!

Howdy guys... pretty cold down here too. We ended up with about 4 inches of snow late yesterday. Stupid me put off buying a snowblower until we had the house deal done, now everyone is sold out of them.
