Hello the end of the Lenten season.  Gave up bars and beer for this year.  Don't miss the smokey bars, but., do miss seeing a few friends and a beer once in awhile. I'm mainly a wine drinker for sure and love to make my own. In fact, have about 5 gallons of Banana wine going now in the garage that's been active with the yeast for the last 5 days. A long ways to go yet. Move the production there due to it being warmer in the garage rather than the shop.

Did get 3 tomato plants in the ground today. They were getting pretty big in the hot house.  I had pulled some cantaloupe plants out of there last week and they are just sitting in one of the plots and we'll see what's going to happen with them. Have not had much success with them before.

Some pretty good rides in the last week on Bandit. Just roaming all over the places. More just taking off in a direction rather and any destination. Really have to download the track file to see just what all roads I'd been on. An example below.

An example of a 150 mile ride on Bandit the 22nd. No stops, just ride ride ride. 

See the wife has stuff for dying eggs for Easter. Have not asked who or what for. Just know it's gonna be a noisy kitchen when she starts banging things around so be a good time for a ride or go fishing. ;-) Just not a Holiday person here. 

Did get the oil and filter and chain adjusted and inspected on Bandit a few days ago. Time just slips away as it's not my everyday bike for just around town and local stuff. 

Did make a fishing / boat riding trip to the Streeters area last Tuesday. Muddy waters and pretty windy. A couple bites but nothing in the boat. Trying out new riggings on baits mainly. Was not really happy with them so they come off when getting home and tied on something different for the next trip out. But., gonna just start staying on the river pretty much. It's a 50 mile round trip by truck to the landing at Cameron Lakeside and probably about 10 miles to Mermentau round trip.  Want to learn the river system in my area more better anyway. .
