    I am starting to get away from the chrome thing a little. Have other plans. I am thinking about quitting though. There is this new thing out that I am going to try once I get more information on it from the place I work. It is called Breath Laser Therapy, has like an 80% success rate.

    When I ride with our local group, we stop for coffee and pie every 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Amazing how long you can ride with all that pie.

    Fabulous weather here--mid 70's to low 80's and hasn't rained yet this year. Although my yard would like a little rain.

    Not yet Johnny, can't risk incisions popping open, so no riding for another couple weeks. Right now, I have to be content with laying in the hammock under my favorite trees watching the cumulous clouds roll by, and the sound of all those Harley's screaming up Cottonwood Pass.

    That is a bummer. I haven't been on mine for like a week and a half. :rant: But I haven't been completely rideless though. :D I hope that you get better soon so we can meet up here in Sota as well. :)

    Things are still fairly green in town for some strange reason, but know what you mean about South Park Desert.

    Did you go to Tejon Street Bike Rally? Any good pics to show us? Here's a good one from last year.

    Here is a pic of our back yard this morning, overgrown mess from all the rain. The only brownish part you see is because of the massive Douglas fir tree that totally shades that spot and sucks all the water out of the ground there. Got to get the wife out there on the next sunny day to mow the grass. :D
