    Snow is on the mountain, roads are all clear and dry. 70 degrees all last week, but snow is in forecast again for tonight.

    I took the scooter out after installing the V-Ductor. I had her up to 100 mph and I would have to say that I got there fairly quickly. It was a great day for a ride here is Sota as the temp was a cool 92* out and humid. Just went for about an hour enjoying the wind in my face. :D

    I wish that I could ride all day tomorrow but I have to to another job fair to see if I can get the family closer to the cities as instructed by HotRider. I want to take the scooter but I do not think that would leave a good impression. What do you think?

    Oh, we get used to it. Couple years ago, it snowed 4' (here in town) on May 15. Warm days followed and it was completely gone by the 19th. Several states below were flooded real bad right about then, so......who had it worse?

    You say 92 is cool?? Man, I'd be camping in the big cooler at 7-11 when it hit 85!

    Johnny, I used to ride my bike to work all the time wearing a suit. Well, I put the tie and jacket on when I got there. Still today I ride to church all dressed up (have to look good for the parents of the kiddos I teach). And our Pastor rides his Road King to church all dressed in his church robes. You should see the looks we get from people in cars.

    Good luck at the job fair!

    I am going to hold off on my report for just a bit. I want to change my timing settings and see what the difference is then if any. Remember that I told you that I got a couple of sneezes out of the carb the first time around? Well this time nothing so I am pleased about that.

    Last night on the news they said our snow pack is at 192% of normal this year. Was supposed to be 70 today, well another storm has made its way in so 80% chance of rain and more snow in the hills. You guys in Colorado may get some more to.

    LOL! Actually I drive stick pretty well. Once and awhile it is jerky but not so much now. I'm just a fast learner!!! The youngest daughter said he had to wear the green tie today because she just got her toe nails painted that color. The room is actually lavendar but with the light it does have a pink look to it. It's my nemo room, love nemo!! :)
