She's Done!

It's been quite the week. Monday and Tuesday was taken up by helping my buddy "Johnnie Hollywood" out with being his chauffeur so he could have laser/cataract surgery. He lives in Brantford and the surgery was in Oakville, with the follow up appointment the next day in Hamilton. He was completely amazed what the difference between the 2 eyes are now. He said he sees everything in 4D, and details he never knew existed. He gets his other eye done later this month.

Speaking of details, when driving back north on Wednesday, there was a haze/fog that started in Barrie and followed right through to Parry Sound. Apparently it's the smoke blowing in from Manitoba. Crazy to think it can travel that far. It's still lingering around, but at least the heat wave has broken and we are having some really nice days as of late. Warm during the day, and last night it got down to 12 degrees. Perfect for sleeping.

Thursday was long overdue, as I was able to finally to get the clutch cable/handle put on the bike and working with the kind help of my friend Jason. Patience is a virtue and we both proved it. It's finally up and running. What a relief! Yesterday was a rest day and today I made my way out to Jason's house to give the bike a much needed bath. It was so dirty. Tomorrow we are headed out in the morning to get the back tire changed then heading out for a well deserved ride. Real friends show up, without asking in times of need, and Jason truly is one of them.

Not sure what the plan is for Monday and Tuesday, probably some production work for the radio station. Wednesday I head back south for a doctor's appointment, Friday in Brantford for my birthday, Saturday is the annual Crossfire Wrestling BBQ, and then hit the road Sunday back to Parry Sound. In between all of that, who knows what else I'll find.

Stay safe out there if you are travelling this long weekend. Let's all make it home.

Tomorrow is another day.

It's the way she goes...
