UPDATE ON HOWARD---WEATHER DRAGGING ON

HOWARD

As most of you have heard by now, Howard suffered a stoke last Wednesday and was taken to the hospital here in Waukon and then on to Mayo in LaCrosse.  Monday morning when I called to see when I could visit him, Randy said he was at coffee at the S & D and should be back in the store a little later!  Apparently it's hard to keep a hard-headed Dutchman down!  When I visited him at the store later that morning, he looked great.  You would never know he had had a stroke.  He has lost function in his left eye, but that's it.  I know there are quite a few motorcycle riders with one eye, so after a while I look to see him back in the saddle.  Besides most Harleys affect your hearing, not your eyesight!  And I'm sure it won't be too long before he'll be after that all-you-can-eat Mexican supper again!

ANOTHER "GOLDEN DAY" IN NORTHEAST IOWA

Maybe I should get my other knee done to help straighten out our weather.  It's certainly been a long-drawn out March.  I was able to get the trike out for her maiden Iowa voyage a week ago Monday.  I put a little over 100 miles on her that day, and that's been the last nice day since!  With this coming Wednesday still looking cold and damp, I thought I would send out a few photos from last year that didn't make the cut for the PMS meeting.  ENJOY!

GOOD CROWD FOR PMS!!

Whether it was actually PMS (parked motorcycle syndrome), being hard-up for entertainment, or the full moon, we had 31 attendees at the Wednesday Night Riders 9th annual PMS meeting on Wednesday night, the 15th, at the Old Rossville Store!  It was really good to see the "old" gang again, and hopefully some warm, sunny Wednesday nights are on the way.  I do have some spare ride sheets if anyone has misplaced theirs already.  This meeting seems to always be a fun time with some good-natured ribbing mixed in.  Hopefully everyone had a good time, but WARNING if you didn't, next year's meeting won't be any better!!

Here's a few photos from the meeting--some taken by Chuckles.
