Kris and I have a new addiction and it's pursuit led to a 6 hour CTFW therapy session yesterday. I had been wanting to get Kris a Kitchenaid stand mixer for a while. I found the Kitchenaid Factory Refurbished page on eBay, and the Mr. Mixer channel on youTube. Once I realized how easy and inexpensive it is to repair/refurbish these mixers, I went on a reconnaissance mission perusing eBay, FB Market Place and Craig's list for bench fodder. Kris want's to rent a table at a local indoor flea market and sell refurbs and offer repair service. We'll see how it goes. Anyway, we set out yesterday morning on the '06 and chased down garage sales and estate sales till 5:00pm. We ended up with our sixth tilt head mixer, some bowls and attachments, a set of Devilbliss air tools, and a RoboVac. Here's the Kitchenaid herd: And our "keeper" We'll probably gift the kids with refurbished mixers for birthdays this year. It's a surprisingly satisfying endeavor to tear one of these down, clean/repair/re grease/re assemble it back to like new condition.

I think the trike is sold. At least I took a deposit on it. A guy in Michigan sent me a deposit because he is going on vacation this week and didn't want to miss out on it. He is supposed to come get it on August 5th. He wasn't interested in the trailer so I guess I'll have a nice Bushtec for sale.

Hello Forum friends, My wife and I had a nice 4 hour ride to have lunch. Thankfully the ride to lunch was only 45 minutes, but the ride home was much longer since it was a nice, pleasant day after so much heat. It's been a month since I have ridden because of some back issues. I really don't know what happened, but if I twisted or moved wrong, I was on the floor in pain. Several back X-rays to show nothing was wrong with the fusions I have, and after some serious PT, I am back to doing mostly whatever I want. I say mostly cause the wife has other ideas. 😢 But I am riding again and hope to get the trike out soon.

Absolutely Beautiful
