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.

Today is our 15th Anniversary! Happy Anniversary Lori! Yesterday was nice too Lori took the truck to her parents so I hitched a ride from the motel with "Stoney" (a tile man working on the soon to be Soda Fountain across from us). The mornings have been cool and calm and at 7:00 tourists trickle in just a couple at a time. They're continuing the sidewalk improvements in front of the Motorcycle Parking. Our lamp post and theater reflected in the front window. Looking north to "a corner" with a "flat bed Ford." Old sign and other stuff we've found in Jenny's and the Motor Palace. These guys were heading home from Flagstaff. Pre-dinner exploration We drove out to Clear Creek before dinner to have a look, this is 5.8 miles from the Motor Palace. There's camping and picnic areas along the creek. Swimming and small boats are allowed too. For better pictures see the ones Lori took at   Bondorella ...
