I thought about you but didn't know exactly where you were. You would
have enjoyed the rally but would have had a hard time getting home.

True, sadly most places aren't scooter friendly.

We walked thru a Buckee's in the deep south, forget if it was LA or AL
last year. Didn't spend any money but fun to see all they had. (They
didn't have thimbles, my collectable. Couldn't find one in PF either,
but didn't check many stores because of the weather.) One will be coming
to central NC in the next few years.

Unfortunatly, they're a "no go" for Steve because of the corn. I might
try a few, if someone is sharing a bag, but probably wouldn't buy any
for myself.
