Ahhh-MAZZZZ-ing!!! Thanks for sharing that video of the museum. My hubby will be drooling when he sees it. I sent it to him in a text. :)

Hope you had a good day today!

First time in 25 years I ever had to do that with Blue. (I have had to jam the brakes with other bikes, and “Fork-Wiggle” and loss of control are very real dangers.

Blue is officially an “Antique” this month and has the original brakes. I am in AWE.

Howdy, LUV!

Glad you enjoyed the video. I was surprised when I watched it because I didn't realize they had so many items already and that some were quite rare.

Did you check out the short video in the other link? Everything they showed will be up here eventually, and that's just a SMALL sampling of what the museum bought.
I can't wait until Hubby and the others go back for the next load because I'm goin' with them!

As for my day, it was grocery shopping day. woo.
And I got back home to this .....

Our heads are all stove up from the dust. GACK!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, radu....I’ll check out the links as soon as I get home. And I’m on my way.

I love military museums.

[radu]

Howdy, Lathy.

Rain clouds? YIPPEE!!! Glad y’all are getting some rain up there.

[radu]

Drive safely on the way home.

Hope you enjoy the “tour” when you get a chance to sit down to watch.

I love those kind of museums. There is a Military transportation Museum in VA that I have been to a number of times that have the old WW2 Harleys...very interesting.

Thanks for the video!

[luvie]

AHHHH-CHOO!!!!

[radu]

Just damn. :-(

Haven’t had a chance all day to sit down and check out the news and hadn’t heard about this.

[radu]

Howdy, PRO!

Have a good day? Enjoy a hearty breakfast with your son before he got busy with his studies?

Real Men Stand for Our National Anthem!

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!



"The Star Spangled Banner"
Verse Four
(Click)

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
