Title: The beast lit.....
Post by raydawg on 03/30/18 at 12:42:28

She needs a new battery I think.
I charged the one on her, checked her voltage, but when i turned the key....
Not enuff to get her rolling.
Jumped her with a extra 12 volt I keep for the boat.
She woke up with barely a crank.
Gonna clean her up and kiss her goodbye.
She did all I ever asked her to do.
I have no complaints, I’ll miss her back talk [ch128540]

You guys were always very helpful, a very active site, and I really enjoyed and appreciated your company.

Not sure how soon, but I will be a, FSO  ;D

Good luck, and safe rides, to all you who were part of this experience  :)

Yeah, my wife worries when I ride.

Every year on the island riders and deer, and death.

I will be working on island again in a few months, so no more ferry, YES!!!!

Just don't need it.

I use the boat more  ;D

It is good that you can accept (welcome) change, and are not so stuck on riding that you can go against your wife's wishes.

You and I ride for different reasons......for you it was a way to cut a couple hours off your commute, and you would ride rain/shine/snow.  I am a fair weather rider and don't get on the bike when temps are below 50....or if rain is strongly in the forecast.  My wife is OK with my riding - and will go with me as long as I have a bike that has a comfortable back seat and it is not too cold (I also have to go places where she can hike and shop and sight see).

You and I are both entering a new chapter in our lives - I am excited by the potential freedom that is available when I am no longer chained to my desk day after day.

Yes Dave, you are so right, a new chapter.

If I reflect back on days gone by, chapters closed.....
I can't help but think the "good old days are gone," even with with The Don and MAGA....... won't change it  ;)

However, it is folly, in looking back, why?

Yeah, its fun, sorta like going into the Tall Table and smacking around dupes....not very sustaining, or productive.

I believe with this new opportunity offered to me, to stay on the island and work at my own pace, really is a blessing.
I feel I can "ease" into the mindset, AND, uncertainties, of that new chapter...

If I feel like I am trying to straddle two different ways of life, I will tackle that once armed with more knowledge of the present moment.

I believe having a younger wife, it makes sense to wait and live a NEW chapter together, when she can join in accordingly.
Also, living in paradise, already, I am fortunate that I don't have to move to it  ;)

Buddy, I wish you the best in your new chapter of life too.....
I hope the labor will be well worth the results that come your way.
You have been such a big help in my Savage chapter......and the gal still has your belt pulling her to this day, oh, that was a fun one!  ;D

I like riding, but you are right, it was a means, more than a love, like you....
That first love is at the helm of my boat, running into the wind, the salt air and mist, adding much to the pleasure of being a free spirit.....
I would rather tinker on my boat, than my bike...

Hey, you double up, ride out, we'll share a chapter, someday  ;)

Thanks, and be well....
