Scooter called and said he arrived at Playboys safe and sound. They are going out to dinner tonight and will be heading to the MD in Texas on Friday morning. He is still hunting for a great scavenger hunt target, you guys all know Scooter, always ready to play the game. Anything for a reason to ride. Til later, Karen

Almost forgot, I received a package delivery today. What a sweet guy you are. First you go off galavanting across the USA and leave me back to battle the ice storm, snow, :snow2:and the cold, and go to work every day while you bike along with friends to new destinations in very nice warm weather . What did I ask that you send back for me??? A cowboy, an oil baron, or a tumbleweed. Well, you have no excuse for what you sent me because you even posted a picture of the tumbleweed. Here I was, home from work at lunch and there is a package for me. I bring it in the house and open it. Guess what was inside:confused24:...as if you don't already know. YOUR LAUNDRY:soapbox:?!?!?! Where in the world is my tumbleweed ??? SOOOOO, is set your nicely packaged laundry box on the floor and called in Bean and Jakey. Well they went nuts. They rutted through the clothes acting as if you were stuffed inside the box too. Then they started running back and forth from the kitchen door to the bedroom, then going outside to try to find your hiding place. Then clawing at the door to come back in and start the process all over again. So much for the relaxing lunch break. You owe me big. (:stirthepot:Just kidding, :stickpoke:I'm not really upset). But, you are very lucky that I put the laundry in the hamper instead of keeping the box on the floor and letting the dogs empty it out for you:buttkick:. If you dare, call me later when you get a chance. Love ya, Karen

I am pretty sure the bikes engine slowed down because your RPM's were reved:Venture:. It's because the bike wanted to go one way and you wanted to go toward for the scavenger hunt picture:no-no-no:. Nice scenery huh ? Love ya, Karen
-
That a boy Scooter!! I knew you could pull it off. LOL Love your sense of humor in every thing that you do:no-no-no:. Was that a rustic road by chance:bighug:?

Any updates on IH Truckguy?
-
:whistling:My guess is that you won't be finding the current scavenger hunt target there:stirthepot:. Oh well, you still have more chances yet to come. Karen

LMAO Come on guys, let your hair down and have a little fun. I am going to PM Scooter Bob on this one. I'm sure he'll be interested in the hunt . Unfortunately he is headed into colder weather now:cold:, darn the luck huh guys? LOL I can honestly say that Scooter enjoys trying to find every target out there. Have a great time in your searching:080402gudl_prv:. Karen

Just got off the phone with Scooter Bob. He is loving Luckenbach soooo much I don't think he's coming back to Wisconsin . If any one out there hapens to see him, send him back home please. I happen to be freezing up here (not sure if its because he's not here or because it is just too da** cold ). Actually, when I went on the Luckenback web site and saw pictures of what he was going to see today, I already had figured out that he probably wouldn't want to come home in the near future... Do I know you too well honey? Just remember to send me back a cowboy but don't UPS him packaged in dry ice unless you are sure that he will come out of hibernation when I unwrap the package. Karen:bighug:

I wish Scooter and I could be there but you are far from Wisconsin and with the new job, I have very little vacation to use. Good luck supporting a cause that means so much. Karen

Scooter arrived in Waller at the maintenance day late this afternoon. He called to say he is going to start visiting with the others who are there so he probably won't get on the site. Watch for later posts of maintenance day and more travels over the weekend and next week. Karen

You are soooo lucky that I'm not sending you scenic pictures from Wisconsin. We have been having some wonderful weather here in Wisconsin, including an ice storm up here that caused four power outages today. It has rained:rain2:, snowed:snow2:, sleeted, thundered, and then I really can't describe what it has been doing all day, not to mention the wind too. Honey, you OWE me big:buttkick:. Somehow, I'm not seeing the winter wonderland in those pictures of Beaver Dam and Oak Grove dear. What were you thinking leaving me up here in this stuff while you walk arount in T-shirts and enjoy the sun? How dare you (just kidding) apply sunscreen and enjoy warm weather while I am applying long underwear and keeping my feet warm on the heat register. I thought that we had an understanding about where and how I warmed my feet . I miss you and will talk to you later. Karen

I definitely remember that campground !!! Missing you already and freezing up here in Wisconsin. The dogs are in deep depression too. No baby yet either. Be safe and remember my tumbleweed. Karen

Those of you who know Scooter Bob and I already know that I have to change my answer because this is a PG site so... I would have to say that my favorite hobby other than riding with Scooter Bob would be dreaming about how to spend money I don't have and strip poker, or strip dominos, or strip cribbage or strip anything, or leather ... never mind that one... Maybe I should have listed BSing first huh? ladyfyrefiter aka Karen

Scooter Bob has been riding a few times this year so far. First was New Years Day which is an annual tradition. The second time was about two weeks ago. BUT>>> he has also purchased a Yamaha Venture snowmobile and has dragged me out in the cold for some fun in the snow. This is my first time riding a snowmobile in years but we try to get out on the weekends when the trails are open. Have been having fun with this new season of Venture riding. Til later, Karen and Scooter Bob.

Spotted these growing by the DQ in Beaver Dam. The next target is.... A pic of You and your Bike and a roadside fruit or veggie stand. Good Luck, Karen

I am volunteering to be the stupervisor for this get together. How much more damage can a female blond pollock do when there will be so many engineers and machinists there that can fix anything with a hammer and duct tape right??? -
No, Luckily Wisconsin is a freedom of choice state...Thanks to Abate Karen:7_2_104[1]:

The pictures are awesome. I wish I could have been there. The covered bridge and river are neat. Reminds me of the rustic road trip. What is on the front of the train in the picture? Is that a snow plow train? Til later, Karen

The pot of water is on the stove heating up :225:as I write this. I did not want to take the chance that they would die before I could get some pictures so I am cooking them now. Will cool them down and get them ready for freezing. Will take pictures around noon and then get them in the freezer to enjoy next week. OH what a beautiful morning. The sun is shining and the air is fresh. The birds are singing and shortly I am going to make some lobsters screech:yikes:. I am feeling somewhat like Hannibal Lectuer right now. Waiting for my morning phone call from Scooter while the water heats. I kinda figured you folks would see the humor here. Til later, Karen

Oh Scooter... You are in big, big, BIG trouble when you get home:buttkick: . My special package arrived this afternoon... Do you have any idea what you sent to me??? Did you see them actually pack the box??? I was sooooo excited to open that shipment. I got the freezer bags ready and the dogs are at my feet drooling because the carton smells like fish. I sliced open the tape, opened up the enclosed cooler, move the brown packaging off the lobsters, and noticed first of all that the things still had their heads on. I was expecting lobster tails, but that's not really the big issue. At least they put the rubber bands on the pinchers. So... here I go, I reached my hand into the cooler and grabbed one of the lobsters out, at the same time shaking open the freezer bag so I could slip the lobster right on in, but ALL OF A SUDDEN THE THING STARTED MOVING !!! I thought holy and just as quickly dropped the lobster right back into the carton. Did you realize that these things would still be alive when they got here??? I nearly peed my pants and at the same time, burst out laughing so hard I had tears running down my face. SOOO, I peaked into the cooler and the darn lobster that is on the top is winking at me, his antenae are moving all around and he is stretching trying to get out. These things have like six legs!!! Well, I carefully scooped up the top lobster and held it up (the thing is as long as from my elbow to my finger tips). Yes... the lobster is still winking at me. I showed the now drooling dogs what I had and Bean (the 100# yellow lab) runs away scared and won't come near me. Jakey (the 105# golden retriever) is still drooling like there is no tomorrow so I put the lobster near his face (the pinchers are still banded). He is thinking he has a new chew toy. So, what to do with them ... CALL MOM... She'll know what to do:confused24:. Yeah right. I called mom and told her what happened. She was laughing at this story until I told her that she was going to be the one cooking them. She said NO WAY, the heads are still on them!!! GUESS WHAT? I bought a beautiful 50 gallon aquarium for my new pets!!! I found directions from the Maine University on how to prepare the live lobsters for freezing so I will be doing this tomorrow after work. Right now, I put them in YOUR BEER COOLER with all of the ice I had in the house. Ha ha ha, :banana:I get the last laugh here. Jakey is going crazy because the lobster are moving around in the cooler and he can hear them. He is scratching at the cooler to try and get at his new toys. Since you have the camera with you, I am going to borrow a camera from a lady at work and take of these lobsters before I cook them up . I figured you (and probably the rest of the Venture riders here) would enjoy the tales of the small town country girl and will be rolling in the grass laughing your butts off. Like I said, wait til you get home. You had better be bringing flowers...Many, many flowers. I love you and am glad that you are enjoying your trip. Be safe out there and keep the rubber side down. Keep the pictures coming. Til tomorrow... Love Karen

Oddball request but maybe someone here has them....
ladyfyrefiter replied to SilvrT's topic in Watering Hole
I am pretty sure that my boyfriend has a set. He's Scooter Bob on this site and is currently on vacation (is actually in Maine right now). I will send him a PM and have him respond to your thread as soon as he can (he is traveling with a computer but does not always have access to internet). I can't be sure that what he has is what you are looking for as I know very little (less than a mouse) about bikes. Karen -
Valves Done - Thanks for the Help Scooter Bob
ladyfyrefiter replied to RedRider's topic in Watering Hole
Jeff, We have not met yet but my thanks go out to you:bowdown: for taking Bob off my hands for the day. I grabbed some volunteer work at our local American Legion bar cleaning up a mess that Bob and I had a hand in making. I got to scrub and clean while he went for a ride and stopped out by you to help you out. Its all good and he came back with a smile on his face . That's worth the world to me that he smiles and his eyes are sparkly when he rides. Hope to meet you some day as Bob speaks of you often with work issues that you two are collaborating on. Good luck with the rest of the assembly work... definitely not my cup of tea...my job in this relationship is to break things :buttkick:LOL. Karen:fireman: -
Maybe cause that picture isn't a jellyfish at all, it's actually an alien life form Call NASA and have them take it back with the rocket launch on Thursday!

I miss you too:173:. Are you going to set up a new photo op for the scavenger hunt now that you got your own at the beach ?

Scooter said that there won't be an opportunity for him to post today so you will hear from me instead. Sorry folks, but I am not as colorful as Scooter . I spoke to Scooter Bob around 5 this evening. He visited the Daytona Speedway to tour the Yamaha booth and said that there were no Ventures there on display. He arrived later this afternoon at the Abate campground near Daytona. He has already bought his patch that says "I Rode Mine, Daytona 2010" . Now we just have to find room on his vest to sew it on. Scooter ran into an old friend from Wisconsin who is also camping at the Abate campground. Mad Dog is his name and he stayed at the Abate campground that Abate Region 1I in Wisconsin set up for the Harley 105th. It is soooo windy at the campsite that most of the tents are blowing over. Scooter probably will not even set up his tent, rather he will bunk with Mad Dog. Here goes my colorful side ...I sure hope he doesn't wake up in the middle of the night and forget who he is camping with...if you know what I mean :Im not listening toLOL. It has also been raining:250: most of the time he has even been at the campground but he said :beersign:HE'S GOT BEER, LIFE IS GOOD". He has also made contact with Shot from North Carolina and is hoping to meet up with him during his ride back home to Wisconsin. He will post more pics and his own humorous side of the story tomorrow when he can utilize his computer. I am probaby already in big trouble when he reads this post that I have put here. Oh well, life is full of opportunities for excitement right. Support me here, I may need it once Scooter reads this post. Til later when you hear from Scooter. Hopefully still his other (better?) half. If not, I actually qualify to fill the shoes that Boomer is looking for too . Karen
