Busy Weekend

Went & helped my brother-in-law, Jerry, in the cities put down a hard wood floor in his house saturday. Even though I'm hurting today it was fun & I owed him a favor any way as he came down & helped me with my shed. We scratched our heads alot at first but once we got going it was quick.
My brother, Dave, owns a Harley & was out for a ride last friday (5-08-09). A lady was talking on her cell phone & decided to change lanes without looking. She hit him, put on her brake then decided to leave. He has a broken femer, collar bone, several ribs, puntured lung & lacerated liver. Not life threatning but painful. We all wish him well. He should be home by monday to recover.
I have to cut the grass today so gotta get at it. Everybody take care.

MAY !!

Already May. Can't believe how time is going by.
Got a ride in today (saturday). A little windy & abit cold but made it a short one. The club bike blessing is tommorrow so hope the wind dies down as it would be nice out except for the wind. They have a Pastor bless you & your bike & then a "Shawmen" comes with an Indian blessing along with the smoke stick. Need all the help I can get!! We go for a ride after. Suppose to be nice. And yes Jody, you get a ride!!!!
Trees are doing good so far that I planted. Wait & see if they make it. Mowed the lawn for the first time today. It was a "John Deere" day!!!!!!
About it for now. Going to Mpls to help my brother-in-law tear up carpet & lay wood floor next weekend. He came down & helped with the shed so I owe him. I'd do it anyway.
Everybody take care.

Hi All

Here we are with another week. Got out to ride last saturday but this weekend has been nothing but rain. The yearly "Bike Blessing" is today but it's raining so it will be next sunday. Need all the help I can get! It was in the low 80's last friday but about 5:00, just before leaving work, a storm came through. Was going to take Lori on the bike but that ended that. Still early in the season but it goes by fast.
Not much news here. Refinanced on thursday & cut 1.5% off our intrest. Will never have it payed for anyway & if we can save monthly on the payment why not. Bought it below apprased value & still below that after refinance. We'll always be below market value on the loan.
Every body take care & I'll write something boring again next weekend.

Another Week

Got the bike out yesterday for the first time. Really felt great!!! Today it's raining but more days coming.
Not alot here. Got my trees in the ground last weekend. 3 of the 5 have buds on them. Water every day & hope they all make it. $48.00 for 5 trees on the net, if 3 make it, I'll be happy. I think the 2 need to get their roots going.
A guy I was in a band with years ago is playing this saturday. I know all the guys in this band so should be a good time. He was also in the van club I hung out with so a bunch of us are going.
That's it for now. According to everyones blog, all is well.
Take Care.

Happy Easter

Got the trees planted. Hope they make it! Planted 5 of them so if 3 or more make it I'll be happy.
Sort of riding weather but with the trees & Easter may not get out this weekend. Busy planting yeasterday & going to family houses today. Suppose to be really nice from here on out so should be able to get out & ride.
Lori's cell phone took a dump so went to get new ones yeasterday. Still have the same numbers. Can't believe what a racket this has become. Oh Well!!
Take care all & will keep you posted.

Still Waitng

Got about 3" of snow today. I know riding weather is coming but it doesn't have to keep teasing me!
As usual, not much going on here. Inlaws were down last weekend & had a good time with them. Shane is finnally moving on in his Army stint as his foot is much better. The guy deserves credit for pushing on.
Still just waiting for the weather to break so we can start riding. Bought 5 Popler trees but can't plant them yet. Should be able to get them in the ground next weekend.
Take care all.

Another One Down

Seems like the days & months fly by. Wish it would slow down so we can enjoy it.
Inlaws were down from the Cities yeasterday. Had a good time with them. Went shopping in the early afternoon, came back here & played some pool then went out to eat. Showed them my new table saw & they got mad because they don't have one. Bet they will soon though! Always wanted one cause I do projects & this makes it alot easier.
Waiting for it to get warmer out so we can go riding. Mid 40's now but still to much sand on the roads. Need a couple good rain showers to clean it up.
Take care all
