sturgis rally


it is the week of the motorcycle rally in sturgis. this is a gas station in belle. too bad if you need gas. the bikes are everywhere. good for business, but it makes it difficult to travel. there have been several accidents, but none fatal. most of the bikers have a lot of skin showing, and are not wearing helmets.

there are a lot of interesting bikes and trikes. so a few with side cars, some had trailers. one was the front of a bike welded to the back of a ford pinto. the guy had hacked off the engine part and replaced it with the front of a bike. just too weird for me.

Looks like you've been living an exciting life. That's good! You deserve it after all those years in the classroom. Any plans for work now? If you want a place to vacation, you're always welcome here too. It would be fun to drag you around this area. Right now I'm suffering from poison oak though.
