"Going Nowhere"

Going Nowhere from Brian Law on Vimeo.


Here are about 6 minutes of photos taken at our shop on Rodder's Row in Orange with music by Blue Sunshine Soul, a band we met while riding home from Denver a couple summers ago. We'd been on the road for about two weeks and weren't ready for the trip to end, so took extra time through our favorite sections of Route 66, from Flagstaff to Seligman, Kingman, and across the Mojave to Amboy. From there, it was a straight shot home, but we took a detour at Roy's to spend a night in Pioneertown. Pappy and Harriet's (next to the motel) is famous for great food and entertainment.. We'd settled in at our table and were enjoying the warm night when Blue Sunshine Soul began playing one incredible song after another providing the perfect soundtrack to wind down a perfect ride.

 If you know anyone from the band or have contact info for them please let us know. We'd like to have them play at the Motor Palace when we get things going...which should be soon. Our building permits were just approved and we'll get to work on the building in February!!!

The song is "Going Nowhere" from Blue Sunshine Soul's album "In All Of the World At One."

Mike Hodis of Rising Sun Jeans hosted a post Inspiration party Sunday with all the trimmings. Rising Sun hand crafts denim and work wear on antique sewing machines using traditional techniques and the highest quality materials. Mike's passion for quality is only rivaled by his knowledge and skill. Took the R100S out Santiago Canyon to try out the new throttle cables...they work, and had lunch at the Silverado Cafe . This place is pretty good. It reminds me of the cafes found in small towns far away from California. The waitress was real nice, the food was good, and lunch was less than $10 including coffee! I'm going to try breakfast next time. Cafe Racer Lunch Counter at Silverado Cafe I was honored to be allowed to drink from Rosemary's pretty cat mug. We got more Schott 141 Cafes and 689H Retro Horsehides. We're still waiting for  Women's One Stars. The NHRA Winter Nationals were this week and I hung around the

Since you're here...this car really had a gold plated drivetrain and lots of trim including custom made bumpers. Believe it or not it looked really cool in a strange way. Here you go Barbary Buzzard. Lori got better shot of engine compartment. and the bumpers.

Lucky Triumph Last week's Triumph troubles are turning out to be a pretty good thing...if you're the Triumph. Lori's been wanting to do something with it for awhile and said, "Since it needs a battery I might as well take the gas tank off and see about paint." So the battery's here, the tank and rear fender are off, she's shopping for a tail light assembly, and pondering some paint options. Here's a few pictures of her tearing it apart after we siphoned the gas out of it. Here's a few more with the color turned on. Agriculture Report The seedlings were transplanted into their new pots Saturday. Lori knocked the bottoms out of the eggshells and planted them with Marigolds to help repel insects. They're taking well to their new homes and look like they've grown in the last twenty four hours! More at  www.townhomesteader.com   Crazy Old Jeep This Jeep caught my eye while fueling up last wee
