It's Monday already . . and that's almost gone too

I can't believe the weekend went by so fast.





It all started Friday when cousin's of BT's came in from Iowa.


Dan and Pat came on their Harley's! Here we are visiting with them at their hotel. We had just enjoyed drinks and dinner together. BT's sister Darlene, and her husband Doug were our chauffeur's.


We gave them the 5 cent tour of Jefferson City. We drove around the Capitol, past the Lewis and Clark monument and to the south side of town. The cousins wanted to see where their great uncles and great grandparents lived in the early 1900's.









Here are the 2 uncles. Circa 1960.



Pat has her own bike, it's a softtail classic. She loves chrome!










I didn't get a picture that does Dan's bike justice, but he has an Electra glide.




We spent Saturday visiting with them at our place. The blacksmith repaired a spring from Dan's kickstand. That sure impressed Dan, that a blacksmith could fix a Harley Davidson. BT's brother Pat, and his wife Larraine came to visit with the cousins too.


Remember this from August a year ago? Jeremy bought this 1948 Jeep Bantam trailer. He has been working on restoring it.








It's now been primered. When it stops raining this week, he will give it the color coat.




One last thing, I had my doctor appointment today. I am singing Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah! I did not tear, or break anything. He told me it was just trauma to the muscle. I have drugs and some exercises to do. I am very lucky!

Hey, wait a minute! You have a goose and naked ladies in your header. How did I miss that? Very pretty! Our NL's are gone -- mowed down one too many times "on accident" maybe? -tw
