I&#8217;ve put on over 10,000 miles since May 1st. Two trips helped me along on that figure, the first to visit Mom in Michigan and the second was a short 1000 mile trip to Silver City and Pinetop Arizona and back. Add to all that, I&#8217;ve been using the bike to run errands that don&#8217;t require a truck to handle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yesterday I hosted a breakfast for chapter members and I buy for one lucky member. These have proven popular and generally lead to a ride afterwards. Yesterday&#8217;s ride led to a gun shop and then to lunch for Jim G. and myself. While I really don&#8217;t need a new gun, I still like to check out the inventory and fondle any new models. I did fondle the new Glock 10mm, a very big piece of firepower. Not a concealed carry item for sure. I also inquired about the S&amp;W 686-7, a revolver with a surprise extra shot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Leaving RIBS, we headed through Madrid and Jim and I caught several tourists taking pictures of us, something that&#8217;s pretty normal in Madrid. The movie Wild Hogs was filmed there and it turned out to do more for tourism there than any chamber of commerce could.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today is another Harley day. I&#8217;m heading to the dealership as soon as I finish this piece and helping out with an open house event there. It should be fun and I get points for being there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Life is good and Harley helps make it so. Peace!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you don&#8217;t want to read about me and my Harley, move on. I&#8217;ve put on over 10,000 miles since May 1st.
