Vintage racing and swap meet this Fri. Sat and Sun at across the river from New Orleans at Avondale, La. This is a fairly new meet, last year they were still working on the bleachers, there was a few vendors there, the facility has been there a few years but is still in the early stages of catering to M/C's. I am going to try to make it, just depends on the weather. As much as it has reined lately it all might be washed away.
 
Well it hailed 3 different times here today, first time marble size, second time golf ball size, third time almost baseball size then rained 1.5 inches. We are sitting under a stationary front that will move south right over New Orleans early Sat. morning so NOLA will probably be rained out, i am still going to wait to the last minute. I need some luck on this one.
 
Speaking of hail, the bombardment my house and shop took the other day showed up, i have 5 holes the size of tennis balls, and a bunch of smaller ones and leaks here and there in the roof of my shop, it has a tin roof. My 2 year old roof on our house took a beating also. The ins. representative will be here in a few days, he is really busy right now. I'll get some pict. later.
 
Just heard some of the animals at the Jackson Zoo were killed from some of the hail during the storms, birds mostly i don't know what others, and i did not make it to NOLA either we got up early i didn't feel very good, went anyway, made it to Hammond, La, by then i felt horrible, turned around and came back, hit the sack and the next thing i knew it was Sun. morning.
 
Anyway worked all day on the shop Sun., i sure hope everyone else had a better weekend than i had, here is a picture, can't tell much. One good thing, i found this i have been looking for it for a year.
