Yep, it's a Morgan. Wooden chassis, blowup balloon type seat cushions. Cool.

It's better to be riding your motorcycle thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about your motorcycle.

Man, I have to start frequenting the same bathrooms as Jonathan. He's found some interesting reading.

Nice article about the Hatton Ferry and its salvation through the local historical society: http://www2.timesdispatch.com/news/news ... ar-318203/

Fickle ferry. Last time the club tried to cross, the water was too high. Now too low. Certainly glad to hear that it will go on.
