That's way cool Pete. Glad you got her goin'. Beats the heck out of a bicycle. Thanks man! Slowly getting all the parts on it. Just rebuilt the generator and today a part will come to allow me to run a water temp gauge, a must for driving. Will pick up the hood later this week, get the top repair going, install the front fenders and lights and a ton of other small stuff, oh yeah, get the windscreen on!
Smokes a bit, but still in the break in period and I am running Marvelous Mystery oil in the gas, along with a bit of kerosene to get the octane down in the 50s.

still trying to figure it out. Golf, meals on wheels, and a little fishing. The fishing quotient needs to be upped, alot.

Did a lot of fishing in Florida for 30-40 years.
Now mostly light spinning gear for smallmouth bass in the Little TN river.
At 75 I'd probably have to hand off the rod on a 100 lb YFT or a big ol' sow grouper down about 150 foot.

That was somebody else on the Haiti comment. I don't remember who though.
Atlanta is probably up there on black population but the majority are college educated or in the trades. Hard working people who want the same for their grandkids and kids as I do. Neighborhood is probably 45% black. Upper 6 figure homes and they are hell on someone who doesn't keep up their homes.

Nice car collection. I really like those Chevelles. I could be happy w just one with a 396… My dad had a light blue one with the 396. It was bad ass. I tried to get him to keep it until I was 16, then give it to me. My mom got wind of that plan, and my dream got traded for a freaking station wagon.

Stick it in the rod holder, drop it down, and push the button when the rod bends over.

It was in joking context why people should not move to Georgia, let's drop it.

My ex BIL had a 68 Chevelle 396. I was with him and he raced a 350 Nova red light to red light. The Nova won

There's my passion and exercise regimen, 50 to 100 shots a day. . OK Crkr, I love stick bows. What is the maker of that great looking bow? Target looks like practice is paying off.

That's a Shakespeare Neceduh made in 1970. It draws 45# @ 28 in and is actually pretty fast for a trad bow. It was given to me by a friend, I shot it a while and passed it on to young man that hunted with a compound and want to try a trad bow, he's hooked now and already bought a new recurve, funny how that happens. Lol Currently I'm shooting a 40# and a 50# Treadway R/D longbow. The 50 lb bow, I call my struggle stick. At my 29 in draw it might be a little too much for me. I also have 1970 Bear Grizzly that I fool with a little. It actually shoots a broad head real nice.
