I went out early this morning to do some volunteer landscape work. A couple hours cutting down buckthorn, hauling brush and painting all the stumps with herbicide. Did the same section 2 years ago but regenerated. I'm thinking it'll take a third visit to finally eradicate it. Today is nasty for any kind of outdoor work. Glad we got done before the heat of the day.
That's what I was doing too....I worked on the tree removal at the end of my driveway before the rain came. There are actually 3 trees intertwined so I am taking all 3 down. Today I got everything I could with my pole saw, and now I need to wait for help before I cut the main big tree, in case it lands in the road.

Then I did some organizing in the garage. I am going to sell my motorcycle. I really can't ride it any more. It's a 2009 Honda 230 with under 1000 miles on it, like new. Thinking it should sell quick in this market, but who knows. My buddy keeps wanting to buy it to save on gas but he has never ridden a bike in his life and he should keep it that way, based on his level of coordination. :lol:

Next up, a shower and some work in the flower room, changing the ductwork around a bit. Only a month overdue.

Are motorcycle prices like used car prices right now?

Holy crap, there is heavy traffic today. I think 150,000 people took an extra day on their rentals and are heading back south today...shopping as they go.
We usually get 12 million visitors May-Aug, another 20 million for the other 8 months. State population can almost double on weekends :o

I would guess the motorcycle market is not as hot as the car market around here, with our limited riding season. Gas prices might be helping MC sales though.

There are also a LOT of Chinese bike companies out now pumping out inexpensive bikes and ATV's....But I should be able to get a good buck out of a low mileage Honda.

Yeah, I'm connected to that madness in two ways - my drummer buddy was playing with a band right where it went down, and my son used to drive around with a group of friends in high school. One being the shooter. My kid is really freaked out about it, called me and talked for an hour straight. People who where in the vicinity are marking 'safe' on FB to let their friends know they're okay, so if someone has Rsawr's FB...

Road Trip.

Greetings from Middletown Maryland.

We are staying at Surreybrooke Cabin in for a few day before moving on.
Beautiful morning out.

This is an old log cabin farmhouse converted to income rental property.

The view this morning from the back deck,

We'll stop at some Civil War battle grounds in the area then move on.

Rustic accommodations consisting of 3 floors.
Bedroom and bath in the attic, living area mid level, on bottom is the kitchen area with fire pit and grilling area outside the back door.

3 floors is the deal breaker. I like this place but climbing 3 flights of steep steps regularly is too much.

Complimentary farm fresh brown eggs in the fridge too.
