    Default Another day of adventure with Murphybrown and Dick574

    Will be headed to Nashville Tennessee for this evening but before that need to share the last couple of days.
    Arrived at Conway Arkansas to discover that they were having toad suck daze. Below you will see some pictures I snapped one of the big issues were that for the toad and frog races it's cold And they don't want to move Let alone hop. I would call this festival a street fair on max amount of steroids. When we left last night the stuck on a truck was at 32 hours what this is his people literally put their hand or body part on this truck parked under a tent and who ever stays stuck the longest wins. I will be checking the news to see how long the person made it . Yesterday was a bad news good news day. Some of my LED lights got a mind of their own and turned on in the middle of the night which equaled a drained battery. That was just a sort of bad news because you see I've got this great AAA service that's going to rescue me!! Wrong I didn't have the right kind. But they were very willing to send a truck out and give me a commercial rate to jump me. Fortunately this is the good news Walmarts not far away and they sell great battery jumper cables. And even better news is I'm still traveling with Dick574 and he knows how to do all that stuff. So I was able to save my damsel great granny in distress card for a later date
    and use. Well need to cut this short and get loaded up just checked the weather radar it looks really awful around Nashville so I'm going to put on my preventative clothes everything that I own that's waterproof and that should stop the rain don't you think!!
    Everyone have a great day. Until the next installment

    Default Weather held.. Ms Spyder didn't

    She ran like a top. Stopped for lunch. Came out stuck in 3rd gear. And no throttle. Good news only short way to motel. Working on problem. Dealer 20 miles east. I am at Brownsville TN. Dealer opens Monday. Spyder sounds like she is trying to shift but nothing. I have the BEST extended . Even tho it's not life threatening or in the middle of no where. I get to practice my making lemonade skills!!! Will keep you posted.

    Good luck, I hope it is just a little heartburn or maybe a gas bubble. Say soothing words and pat it on the back a few times.

    You weathered many storms MB so I'm sure you will overcome this one. Hope your fix is simple and your on your way soon. Please be careful and watch out for those that can't watch out for themselves.

    I'm glad that you were close to a motel and not too far from a dealer. I hope it is an easy fix on Monday and you can get back on the road.

    Default Not until Tuesday

    In working to solution for getting to dealership discovered that Carlock Powersports is not open on Monday. I'm thinking that with this unscheduled day "off" would be a great day to FINALLY learn how to post pics to SL's and also how to color in more states on my signature map.
