Thirty four years of good times...great times...a few bumps every once in awhile.... Spending Forever with my Soulmate

 ........well, so I was told.  And over a cold beer(s) munching on a greasy burger, I agreed.  Last week, ordered up all the parts and yesterday loaded it up and headed down the road to drop it off with a friend of mine that is doing the work.   This thing is a few years old, hasn't even had it's first oil change and it's about to get changed up forever.  I really need to stop doing this stuff... but.. can't help my self.   Now, let the transformation begin

Last years was canx due to the Wuhan BS, but this year's was a go. SWG  Kind of wish it'd been on Saturday which was a gorgeous day outside, but ... not to be.  Yesterday was a cloudy drizzly one, but they still had a good showing. Crawfish was a' boiling, few friends rolled in, music indoors, and they had some tents with vendors outside, and the back bar area they had event merchandise setup.  Picked up a few shirts, back the blue hat, a coin and ....   then asked my favorite question now a days ..
