Getting ready for the bikers to start rolling in come Thursday. Nufferdog and my two locals aren't available to help this year, so doing it all on my own again. Those helpers REALLY take the stress out. But with no (real) job, I started yesterday (Monday) and taking it slow. Got the sheet metal and hydraulics back on the '51 MC crawler so it looks like a tractor again. Got most of the stuff moved around enough to sweep most of the shed except for the back corner. I'll finish that when I get the '46 "A" moved out of the way. Bought most of the food Sunday, just have to finish up with some odds & ends. Looks like it will be a small one, around 20. But having at least one newbie showing up.

I be the newbie! Not going for the whole time, though. I am leaving at the crack of dawn tomorrow and hope to be rolling in to GPR central sometime Friday afternoon. Spending the night at the BelAir and attending whatever festivities are planned for Saturday. Another night at the BelAir, then heading out Sunday morning to meet up with an old Navy buddy that I haven't seen in 42 years and just found a couple of weeks ago near Cedar Rapids Iowa. Spending the rest of Sunday and Monday with him (if he can stand me that long) then heading back down through the Ozarks and hopefully arriving back home by Wednesday evening.

Have fun. I’ve been searching for a Navy buddy of mine but unsuccessful so far.

Got back yesterday evening at 7:30. Stats- States-Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana and back to Texas. 4 1/2 days riding. 2 1/2 days visiting. Total miles - 2717. After meeting a bunch of people and putting faces to names at GPR, I did, indeed, meet up with my old Navy buddy and had a great day and a half trying to catch up and reacquaint ourselves.
