Puget Sound/Seattle NW Area Riders Meet HERE!!!
Got back to the internet here in Seattle about 3 hours ago, caught up on the goings on here and found some folks doing better and some not so good. Weeman in and out of the hospital, always really scary with the young ones. Hope all goes well for these folks.
Lots of folks out of town having fun. Thats good stuff. Some of us having to stay home, not as good but managable.
Spent the last several days at the farm. Rebuilt a bathroom, mowed a bunch of mustard, thistle and rye till the rough cut brush mower engine started acting up. Runs but low on power, seems to be an ignition thing. No puller to get this flywheel off. Takes a special tool, ordered it from Briggs. Decided to start up the camper pickup, it had been setting for several months. Took about 15 min to get it going, drove to town and filled it up ($$$$$$ 45 gallons). Got home and was going to bring it back to Seattle this AM. Started it after putting all the stuff in the back and the starter sounded funny. Let it run about half and hour and shut it off to check the water and oil again. Starter would not engage, bendix went bad. Have to pull the tuned header and move the transmission lines to get the starter off. Decided not to tackle that today as the temp outside was already at 80 F at 7:30 AM.
Had some neighbors stop by with their new dog. Some kind of cross breed mutt that immediatly decided it wanted to be in charge. Three cow dogs, one Corgi and this mutt in a free-for-all. Dick and I in the middle making some of the best dance steps seen of late as we beat on dogs with hats, fists and boots. Finally got it stopped with minor dog damage and a not really serious bite on Dick's leg. All I got was a tear in my pants. The "New Dog", when last seen, was on his way back to the pound where they found him. I was surprised at the Corgi, who is always so gentle and tollerent around kids and those less fortunate, when he was tackled by this strange dog how violent his reation was.
Weather was hot and dry. Hottest day was 108 F and so dang dry it made your face hurt when we went for a ride to the top of the Columbia Hills on the quads. Air was kind of dust filled so we couldn't see all that far but the smog cloud rising over Portland stood out real clear. All of the Mt's were easily visable and the whole coast range showed up kind of clear at their tops and blue down low.
Hope everyone has a great 4th. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Puget Sound/Seattle NW Area Riders Meet HERE!!!
tencube, I have a ride planned for Middell Waddell Creek Campground (Capitol Forest) for thursday the 6th thru monday the 10th if you are interested. Come camp or just do a day ride (or two). Happa will be riding saturday. There are a group of Oregon based riders I rode with in May at East Fort Rock coming up. Anyone else interested is invited as there will be a fast group and a slow group riding.
