Last night was the first time we slept in the building except the time we slept on the floor and checked in to a motel early the next day. The time we learned about the cockroaches.
This time we have cots, blankets, sink, toilet, air conditioning, and a bath tub.
No clothes dryer...yet

We slept in then drank coffee 'til noon when we started a quest for food. BoJo's won again. We shared a Patty Melt then walked around town visiting the neighbors and watching people stop to stand on a corner.
The left panel with the "girl my lord in a flatbed Ford" is being touched up by the John Pugh (the artist who did the mural.

People from Florida

A hardcore older Cowboy and Cowgirl from Texas leaving the corner after standing.

Australians standing and watching a red Corvette minutes after my old friend Doug Fletcher of Boy Scout Troop 120 in Texas offered the lyrics, "a girl you bet in a red Corvette" on a picture Lori posted on Face book.

Our buddy Aden trying out his first Harley other than the Hummer. He remembered what all the controls were for from the Hummer. He knows quite a bit about sharks also...and maybe a little too much about shanking winos with his new pocket knife. I hope he doesn't figure out a wino is anytime soon.

I missed the sunset talking to Aden but I know more about sharks.

This is at the corner on the south end of our street

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

Pantera motor spotted at Belmont Shores car show today. Thanks for humoring me. This is a test for the mobile blog thing. It finally worked! 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
