  1. So my wife decided that we needed a new recliner. Well, we DID need a new recliner. Mine was completely shot and it you reclined it too far back, it would fall over. We had been looking for a while because she has very determined tastes on what she likes. We had been to a few furniture stores and she couldn't find what she wanted. So....enter Facebook Marketplace. She found two almost brand new and, according to here, PERFECT matching recliners on Facebook. They were a bit far, only in Pennsylvania but the price was very good and she negotiated a great deal on them. So. yersteay, I had to go get them. Well, I can be in Pennsylvania in about an hour or so. No big deal. NO NO NO. They are not just across the PA line. They are in Shavertown, PA. Almost 4 hundred miles from. my house. So I left around 4 yesterday morning, drove the 800 mile round trip and got home at 4 yesterday afternoon. Add to all of that the fact that Mother Nature decided to drop a load of snow on me on my return trip. By the time I got back to about 120 miles from home, I was passing multiple cars in the ditches. Now the chairs are beautiful and were a fantastic deal but rest assured, we had a little talk when I finally made it back home and there are now some definite limits on how far away she can search on Facebook Marketplace. What made it worse was that I only slept about 2 hours the night before I left. Just one of those rare, for me, nights that I just couldn't sleep.

  2. My husband and I have been members here since 2006. We have a 1999 RSV. We have ridden together since that time. I have always enjoyed riding with my husband but then last year I decided to no longer ride. I did not ride at all last year. I believe I decided I was no longer willing to take the risk of riding. I told my husband of my decision, and he is still riding. I am going to let him decide for himself. I just felt with all the crazy drivers out there in this world, I am not willing to accept the risk any longer. What do you think of my decision? Yama Mama

  3. I just had a meeting with the group (all cousins) that I go on a trip with each year. This year we're going to NW Arkansas to ride in the Ozarks. Second week of September.

  4. The lady and I have a short trip planned to the Ozarks around Eminence Missouri in May. I'd love to tack on a bigger trip this year, but with starting a new job and her wanting to go to Mexico to see her dad is probably going to shorten this season for me!

  5. We stopped riding 5-6yrs ago. Haven't been on here enough lately. Funny thing is we hear from our family here than my own family when the weather is bad in our area checking up on us. Long story short even though you stop riding your still family. Tell Ron hi for me. Miss you both Buddy & Peggy
