Dang Barry your making me hungry.
Ya ain't going to believe it. But at 63 years old and 6'2" tall, I'm a svelte 180 lbs. Ain't to bad looking either. All due to having kinda tall and slim and good looking mom and dad. Lucky me. Just teasin. . Lotta folks in these parts have health issues due to southern style cookin. Hopeing I'll getta pass There's a lot of bad news come out of this area. Just trying to show some of the better stuff and people around here.
Was looking at the cool S 1000 XR Pikes Peak Edition on the cover of the ON's. Got me to thinking. My R1100RS probably has similar ergos and a lot of upgrades and is only down about 70HP. Maybe up it to 1200cc, higher compression, bigger valves, bigger throttle bodies, twin spark it ,etc., etc. Probably, maybe about $3000+ in costs I'd still be down only about 50HP. Like I use to tell some of my customers, want more power and torque; get a bike that already has it. Then again if you love the challenge, hassle, have deep pockets and your half crazy; go for it. :thumb
Should have said former customers. :)
I like showcasing nice Mom/Pop local restaurants. Crossroads fits the bill to a T. Been going here a long time. Even years ago when it was Granny's Front Porch.

Sergent Glen Bailey of the Arkansas State Police was killed within view of my house on I-55. The assailant ran between our and a neighbor's house before he was apprehended across the street. 1980, hard to believe it's been 36 years ago. Seems just like yesterday. Glad I walked over and paid my respects.
Friday is Catfish Day at the Shack. Forgot to take pics of the dinner, but got pics of the memorabilia on the wall.

Two pork chops and smashed potatoes covered in gravy and peas and carrots and a roll and butter and you already know a big glass of southern sweet tea. I couldn't finish it all, as usual.
