          Thank you guys for the birthday wishes
          So far as the rv is concerned when I was 20 in Idaho at a park and the couple next to me had a van Open Road and let me see it inside and I said to myself one day and 42 years later my dream came true
          I have been coast to coast on my 11,traveled around by truck and train.
          Now I have time to travel when and where I want,don't know about my 11 year old cat,if he got out it would be bye bye and did you ever try and put a collar on a cat who has claws?Not pretty.

          Nice birthday..got one card from my ex mother in lawSong of the day.

                I'm thinkin' it should be getting warm enough in March to open up the mancave. Let me know when you want to come by.

                  I don't know if I can ride the bike,too many hospital visits.Went shopping today first time since june and collapsed when I got home.Steps are killer..will see if I can get it started,parked it last year with it only running on three cyls.Don brought it here to my house for me.
                  Once it warms up and stays warm we can see what happens.

                        Are you no longer able to ride it, or is that just a temporary thing?

                          Don't know Doug.The a fib is easy but the low sodium.117 is really bad and knocks me down which I have been in hospital 5 times for that.New knee is fine and nothing to it.Ankle is attached again,fixed the broken bones,have two more screws coming out so I have to see the surgeon about that.
                          I plan on riding again,shifting is hard because my ankle is fused and I can't get it on the main stand anymore.
                          Once we warm up again,this sunday I will try to start it,battery is most likely dead.
                          This is funny.

                          A MSNBC correspondent on Tuesday decided to do a live report from a gun range. As one could guess, it didn’t go well. Reporter Kerry Sanders began, “As you see over my should here, there are lots of folks here who believe that Second Amendment in this country is under attack.” Seconds later, the gunfire started.

                            I would come over there and work on it, but I'd much rather do the deed in my mancave where I've got all the tools known to man and time isn't an issue. Here's an idea - U-Haul. I did a little checking this morning, and they've got motorcycle trailers and ramp trailers suitable for motorcycle hauling. Rental is about $53, and my Jeep is setup for towing.

                              I did more checking, and there's a local U-Haul over on Mason-Montgomery Road that shows a 5X9 utility trailer with ramp that goes for $24.95 for a six hour rental.
