Here are pictures of the new bike as promised.Still have to get my highway bars and luggage rack put on when they come in, hope that will be tomorrow. Our little group is going to try to have a short ride before I start school next week. But it depends on the rain.........hope we get one so we can ride.

Well........today I went completely crazy I guess........I bought a new motorcycle. Yes , that is right ....a new motorcycle. I got a Yamaha 1700 Road Star Silverado. It is a two tone Silver and Blue.....a really good looking bike. It has lots of horsepower and will move right on down the road. Will take me a little time to get use to all the features ,but I like it already. Going to add a few more extras , like highway bars and a luggage rack, but it is pretty much loaded.
Ill put a picture on here as soon as I can get one down loaded.
Hope to get many hours and miles out of this new bike ...loved my Honda but just time to move to a bigger bike.
"Keep the shiny side up and the wheels rollin".......see you down the highways.

Went for my post-op check up today. Dr Bennet said thing looked good. Still have some swelling but just use ice packs and he gave me a stretch leggin to put on. Also showed me another exercise to do. Have to go back in 3 weeks but things are looking good. I just have to be very careful with my knee from now on....only thing left to do is knee replacement if I mess it up again. Looking forward to riding again......
Met Millie and had lunch with her and Hardy today. That was nice...havent seen her all summer.
Only have about 19 more days til school starts back. Guess Ill start trying to get my mind set for that.
Hope all are well and having a GREAT day. Later

Made it through the surgery...got home yesterday about 11:30. Have felt really well....no vomiting.....thank goodness. Can walk and put little weight on it. Doing my exercises they told me to do...........it is sore but no real pain to speak of. He did 3 scope locations. Had to cut and clean up the interior and exterior meniscus (spelling) also clean off the spurs and arthritis. Said my ligament still looked ok......that was a blessing, but there is an area with no cartilage so the bone has begun to wear on each other. This place has a worn out indention that can not be repaired .......so next trouble will need big replacement.
Anyway ....Im good.......hope to be riding in a few days.
More later..
