Short Thread

Why a short thread? More like a one day ride through the countryside with Jim.

Yes he has decided to visit the poor folks down here in Nakina . He is doing a drop off the trailer, go ride, back on the trailer and off to his biological father's house.

Hey one day is better than none. Later tomorrow afternoon the weather calls for heavy afternoon thunderstorms. Hoo hah what a day.

Anyways if Jim posts tonight it will be from Whiteville, NC.corn.

Just did some pottery, and bribed the desk clerk to open the pool back up for me.

Seems like your TPS (Tarheel Positioning System) is working OK.

I always liked playing in the water at night.

Leads to...other things.

Well we are back. At least I am. Jimmy should be at his pops place by now. There is no country anymore. Houses sitting on 2-3 acres. Just too close together.

This first pic is of his bike unloaded from the u haul trailer. I must say it was a jolly good trailer. A place for the front tire. Plenty of hooks. The ramp/gate was a heavy sucker and the trailer was built like a tank.Image

This is a pic of the trailer. Actually it is loaded back up for the eventual ride in the mountains.Image

This is a place to put on your shit list. Jim liked the food. Buffet style except the food sucked.Image

Looks like we stopped for a break. If you look at my windshield you will see it is wet and so are we. No overpasses to get under in the country.

Not drowned, bathed by mother nature. Naturally refreshing in warm weather.
That's what you tell the cages gawking at you. ;)

It was a good day other than a little rain. I was afraid it would be terribly hot like the day before.

Glad you guys had a good ride.

We did. Tarheel kept doing his impression of a storm chaser, though. We skirted along the edge of the storm, getting spattered twice before it finally overtook us. We ended up there in a rich looking neighborhood. . It rained hard enough that you could see the sheets slice across the puddles.

Then the Po-Po pulled up to see what we were up to. Said he had a call about suspicious characters. ... But friendly conversation and the rain kept the cop in his truck. Not that we were up to anything other than waiting out the storm.

Then we saw the same cop later as i ran a late yellow / early red light. . He got behind me, but when we came to a light, he smiled and waved back when i did.
