            Thanks Bob! Yeppers she is, but is also supposed to be a surprise. As for riding, just gonna have to get the Venturer out and putt around the subdivision a bit to see how my equallibrium and balance works out. From what the surgery doc and other related doctors have told me, even a trip and fall incident is likely to leave me wheel-chair bound........permanently. So I have to seriously consider that for wife's sake. After some 50+yrs of riding with 30 yrs. of it winning moto-cross consistently, makes for a tough decision. A wheel-chair option is definitely the deciding factor, but knowing me, have to at least try the ole' XS11 out at least around the block just for the satisfaction of knowing I can still do it for a bit anyways. You be safe out there on two wheels........and ATGATT!

              Thanks Ben! Great to see the sun come up each day, and that I am still vertical and walking after that T-bone crash back in June last year. Dean R. was behind me at that incident, so consequently missed the next day start of the RockSTOC rally in Ouray I had already pre-paid at the KOA.

                    Thanks a bunch Mike! Great of you and Roo to perfectly polish everything including the windshield on my Venturer when you guys stopped by. Sorry it didn't work out for me to go with you all to Sturgis. My wreck, and two months in the hospital kept me from that, an ST rally in Ouray, a class reunion in Durango, and a lot of missed LD riding. Glad to hear you all will be stopping by, and maybe a stayover nite before heading to Canon City for the rally. Don't think my riding is quite over as of yet, but may not be able to body-wise make the 5hr. ride to Canon City. Either way, your all still most welcome here at my place for a stay-over, coming and going home!.

                          Thanks a bunch Tod!

                          And Jef, if you happen to get over Monarch Pass this direction after or before the Canon City Rally, stop by as lunch again and visiting with you again would be awesome! May be able to throw in a short ride with ya' by then up over the Colo. Natl' Monument here near town or possibly be able to loop it over the Grand Mesa to Delta and back here.
