Busy days off...now back to work

I have been up to my elbows in mopeds the last few days. I was off Wednesday and Thursday for my weekend and I was able to fix a moped for a friend... the spark plug boot was bad along with other small problems. My friend Wes came over with his newly rebuilt Dart moped. He has it down to the bare bones now...no lights, no electronics so it is not street legal, but it is a blast to ride. We rode it around my block and since there is basically nothing to the frame it can really move!

Dawn and I have been cleaning the house...mostly Dawn...because her mother and grandmother are stopping by this weekend as they visit my parents house. My mom is throwing Dawn a bridal shower Saturday and it appears I will be there as well because my mom didn't want Dawn to be nervous since she hasn't met everyone from my side of the family. Along with the cleaning; I cleaned out the garage. We have slowly been accumulating boxes over the last 14 months at the new place and MAN was there a lot of boxes. I was basically just cleaning out everything in the garage and tidying it all up...not that it was that disorganized. I also finished working on the rest of my mopeds. I have all of them 100% running. I even finally installed kill switches on them instead of just the stray wire to tap to the body to kill the engine. My next project is to figure out how to mount my cell phone to my dash so that way I can use that as my GPS. The speedo cables on two of my mopeds have a tenancy to break. I will be sure to let you know what I come up with.

It was rather cool last evening with the spotty light showers...and today will be much of the same...light spotty showers with cool temperatures...we may be hard pressed to break the 70 degree mark. Remaining cool and dry for most of the weekend, but more showers and storms are possible as we head into the later part of Sunday. More scattered storms for the start of the workweek as temperatures bump back into the mid 80's along with humidity slowly rising. Enjoy the weekend and have a good one!

Best,
Andrew Buck Michael
