Red the pic of your dog has just made me cry .
I cannot tell you how much he looks like Buddy.
My best friend of 17 yrs.
He got all filled up with tumors and had to be put to sleep .
I'll post a pic of him tomorrow .

He was a Hamilton Hound or English Deer Hound .
Looked exactly like that


When you get to the keys and pass over seven mile bridge go here for food and leave your mark on wall or ceiling .
It will be there forever !

I made it to Orlando. I tell ya what, It doesn’t leave a good feeling in the pit of the stomach rollin down the interstate at 80+ with a plugged tire.
It took me forever to get to the interstate. Every time ya get up to speed, you hit a town that tries to slow you down to 35mph. and the road itself is 60mph. It got dark and I just held it on 80 and didn’t ever look behind me. Figured I need to make time, and if he can catch up and get my attention, I would pull over and take my medicine like a man. I finally hit the interstate, and made some time. Before I knew it I was stopping every few to pay another $1.50 to get in by the airport. Think I saw Disney land off the east side of the toll road.
I hit the NCOM convention and started running. Be here, go there, you need to be in this meeting at this time, you need to give that report at that time. Go go go. For the last 3 days go. 3-4hrs a sleep a night, Get up and do it again. I did get some really good info that I hope to use to get the loud pipe ordinance off the table in Casper, as well as some info on how to get rid of our handlebar height law, get a vertical license plate, and a few other good ideas too. I think I saw ACE, and tried to chase after him but he was pullin out in a pac of his brothers. Hay Ace. Sorry I didn’t get ant face time with ya. There’s always Albuquerque. 1st night I drank with the Pagans, 2nd night the Outlaws. Boy let me tell ya what, no matter how much ya drink, ya better mind your protocol around these fellas!
There were lots of neat bikes in the lot! there was one with a pet carer from Minnesota, senator Dave Zion's bike that Harley gave him for his million mile Harley, my friend and fellow BOD member Shag’s trike (he has $210 in it and 128k on it), Bessie made friends,Lady Ninja’s bike was wrapped and way cool, Seven’s bike has plenty of accessories on it too!
Its really pretty down here, the flowers are blooming and such.

fyi, all of "ganglands" info and film and pics are from the 80's. the world has changed/as have the clubs, for the better i think. all weekend was peaceful, nutral ground, all workin together to "fight the man" legislatively, Together we are strong!
just have to give "respect" and you will receive it in return. they just want to ride and be left alone.:poke: just like us.

sorry about your dog, my Harley girl just doesn't know what to do without me. and you bet i'll hit that bar!

I'm sure 'gangland' portrays only the minority worthy of the type of show .
like you say most are prolly just fine.
Still wouldn't want to upset them though as they look like some big suckers !
:laugh:


No name is famous for their pizza.
Also right before you cross the seven mile bridge is 'seven mile grill' .
Good food there also .
Not sure what time you'll be passing thru .
Call me tomorrow maybe we can meet up here in West Palm ?
