| Might have noticed a few posts from me in the last two weeks...more than most newbs on here might throw out. Why? Been sick as a dog, with ear infections that make me feel like I'm back at sea in a frickin' typhoon. My balance is all hosed up, keep knockin' over stuff - not real good riding shape.  On the antibiotic and Vicodin (for the ear pain) diet. Just wanted to pass that info along so ya'd know I'm not some shut-in computer geek who never really puts his a$$ in the saddle.
On the upside now, so I expect to be putting a couple grand on the hog with a trip to WA (Whidbey Island) in a couple weeks. Keep the highways warm for me! |

| Good luck in feeling better soon! Down here in Texas, keeping the highway warmed up is NO problem.....will be plenty warm even if not a single car, truck, or motorcycle has seen it in weeks!!!  When you DO get back in the saddle, have a great ride! |

| AFNurse - thanks. HWY's are doin' good here today too, as it is 100 degrees. But here it really is a dry heat - 9% humidity. A damp cloth on the neck and Life is good! Time to soak up the sun....while pumping them fluids to get rid of this bug....  |

| Hey there Red Rder, sorry to hear of your illnesses. With time everything will pass. (I hope). I have recently been told my blood count is AFU and that I have anemia, well hell, I guess the older you get the more your likely to be ill. Anyway, I was stationed out at Whidbey Island with VQ-1, it is simply beautiful out there, (when its not raining), I really enjoyed riding out there. Enjoy your visit. |

| Killer-B - Going up there to see a shipmate who's retiring out of VQ-1. Visited him a couple years ago and had nothing but blue skys and warm weather. You're right, when its not raining it is beautiful. Hoping for more of the same, as I don't live in Nevada so I can slog my way through rain every day!  |

| OK, no more whining - I'm back in the saddle. Had to pick the $$ maker up from her job, so took Ol' Red out and got her on the back. First time in two weeks that I've felt good enough balance-wise. Dang earaches - hadn't had any since I was a wee lad till this bug got me. It was great, even though a yellowjacket wasp stung the crap out of my leg. He's dead now, so I feel great! See ya on the HWYs! |
