      I ran across a few pictures of Stator's stay here in Vernonia. He sure liked his cups.












      He was pretty happy to get his new leathers.

        How about one of the guys up north in Albuquerque give Bill a ring and find out what's going on. Maybe they can offer to help move him on if Bill is still having his health issues.

          I reached out to him. All is well, just a hectic time I hear. Sounds like Stator will be packing his bags for a trip sometime in the next few days.

              Congrats on wedding, mailing and recovery! Work is highly overrated. OK Norm, watch out for Stator.

                Thanks Bill, 👍 Sorry if I was a bit foreword, I know life/health issues can get in the way of trivial things. I'm sure Stator had a good time in New Mexico, and is looking forward to some hot/humid Ohio weather. Thanks again friend. ☺

                  STATOR IS IN OHIO! (again)
                  Along with his collection of trinkets, and log book. Mr. Bill added some HOT and mild Green Chiles and some HOT Salsa all from New Mexico! Thanks Bill. (I'll bring the jar of salsa to the rally to share)
                  I was reading Stators journal and all the places he's been. It is really amazing. I can't wait to take him for a ride and show him off.

                    I also gave him one of my prized possession buttons. 👍 So many cool things he has collected!

                      That's the best salsa we've got here IMO. I loves me some El Pinto salsa!!!! When I make eggs for us I dump one of those little cans of hot chile in a pan and saute it for a few minutes with some onion and garlic, then add 5 mixed eggs and cook till done. Smother with some of that there New Mexican gravy (salsa) and that's a tasty breakfast!

                          A bit of a update on Stator's travels.
                          Stator made it to the Brown County Rally, where he passed out some of the Chiles that Mr. Bill gave him. Thanks Mr. Bill. We also opened the jar of HOT Salsa. (There's still a couple of cans of Chiles that will go with Stator). Stator then came back to Youngstown, Ohio with me. I'll be passing him off later this summer. He was taunting me to see what the FJR will do. He didn't think the FJR would do 140mph. I had to show him! 139mph recorded on the GPS!
                          Saturday I had a friend over my house. She wanted to take the motorcycle home, even thou it looked like rain. We got soaked! Stator stayed dry sitting in the saddle bag.
                          I plan on taking Stator to a Bike Nite in Cleveland Wednesday. I'll get some more picture.
                          This is a picture of my friend Michelle &Stator. Michelle is really getting into motorcycling even in the rain! She passed the rain test, she might be a keeper...☺
