    Default Two Relics

    Scotty & Nancy rode over to Town & Country near Jackson today so we went to the lake for his first Sea Doo (or any PWC) ride. He was perfect for my 1988 Sea Doo. Two relics, still running. He enjoyed the spray, but does not have the water bug, but then who would riding a 23 year old two stroker with a puny 55 hp Rotax. This shot is sitting still, but he did get it up to full speed once he got the hang of it. One more item off the bucket list.

    I love it! It was definitely a nice day for a ride and a dip in the lake. It looks like it was also the first time Scotty's legs have seen the sun this year.

    Last time, too! Good thing the vest covered up the white belly.

    I'd like to make one correction.....there were three relics! One was standing behind the camera.

    Don't let them tease you Scotty, as your legs are as white as mine. Now excuse me while I go lay out in the sun

    While the vest did cover the white belly, you can look at Scotty's avatar to see what I saw.

    Default Two Relics - Revisited

    Last weekend we had our 10th annual Cruise-the-Gut in downtown Battle Creek. A couple thousand cars and a few bikes cruisin' the streets like we did in the old days. This photo appeared yesterday in our Shopper News. I really do think I look better with clothes on!

    Nope! The gray hair just doesn't show against the white skin. Besides, we may have all descended from apes, but some of us have come a lot farther than others. There's not much hair on mine to begin with.
