We made our annual trip to Florida January 18 to February3 2008
On this trip we bought a house
A little better view
My newest acquisition, a 2002 GL1800 Goldwing
Of course if you have one you have to ride it some place. I went with Doug Magray to the Smokey Mts from April 27 to May 3, 2007. This is a hike to Hen Wallow Falls.
Charles Beck met us there on Wednsday with his 88 GL1500.
A view of my Goldwing on the Foothills Parkway with some scenery and Doug in the back ground. I didn't get a lot of pics because I was riding most of the time, we did the Tail of the Dragon, among many other curve filled roads.
This summer's project was for Becky's Grandmother in central lower MI. What we started with.
The first trip was the lowers, counter, sink, and dishwasher.
The counter.
The sink.
Second trip- uppers.
The third trip- doors, and dinning room cabinets, and benches.
Pantry and broom closet.
Well, that took the whole summer, but it was worth it.
The fence
The three amigos, clever disguise dressing like three lovely ladies.
In case you were wondering what last year's project was.
We did add more cement to the drive and a picket fence in the flower garden last fall.
The De Young Family Zoo, ever kissed a wolf?.
frolicked with the fawns.
held a baby black panther. Well you have to know the right people to do it, we really enjoyed it. Thanks Buddy
