    Go for a cruise and look for some hidden treasures on the backroads. It's fun trying to spot old cars.

    Went to Randy Torkelsons shop called Hyperformace (a Harley Haven). Had a wonderfull visit. I'm in the motorcycle business, so Randy's place was really sweet to check out. Even the ol'lady liked it. Gonna try the swapt meet in the AM (if I get up early enough, beer has kicked in now). To the gent in Center Point, let's get together and meet sometime.:p
