    I am always amazed how the painting skills are still there after not lettering much in the last 15 years. I also remember how much I hated lettering brick walls. It's sort of like trying to paint a straight line on a cheese grater.

    Grest stuff John, got to be something special to share a road trip like this with your son. As for the hiccups on the way, they say that life's all about the journey and not the destination and that's so true for road trips.
    Have a wild time at the RU

    That bike is one I bought with a group of bikes last year from a guy in Oklahoma city. My friend Ben D picked them up and brought them to Bob's and they have been sitting in his office at the salvage yard. Bob really liked that one and I really like Bob so it stayed in Wellington.

    Maybe he figures he can trade hot Coors for cold Shiner if he can find anyone crazy enough to trade.

    It sure looks like eveyone is having fun, wish I was there.
