Jim and Don were going home today to Fayetteville. They got on the road for home around 11:00 AM. We said our goodbyes at the top of the drive down to the cabin. Jim and Don headed north and Jim Hunt, Mike and I headed south.
We were going to Searcy, AR to go to a Yamaha dealer to check into a problem Mike has been having. Mike has a Yamaha Roadliner and has been getting buffeting in his head at highway speeds. We were going to see if they had some kind of answer to the problem possibly with the windshield. Unfortunately, the Yamaha dealer in Searcy was closed on Monday.
Our next destination was the Harley Davidson dealer in Conway, AR, the Toad Suck Harley Shop. We went there specifically to get Jim to buy a Toad Suck Harley Tee shirt. I guess the dealership is named after Toad Suck Ferry near Conway. It's a very unique, Arkansas name for a place. Jim bought a tee shirt and had a spare key made for his bike. We then found another Yamaha dealer in Conway, but it was closed on Monday, too.
So we headed to JJ's Grill and Chill for lunch. An absolutely fun place to have lunch.
The riding was very good overall and the temps were up to 97, but once again, the riding was fun and the heat was no big deal riding down the roads at highway speeds.
As we now sit in the cabin at 8:15 PM, thunderstorms are gathering across the valley and it looks like we will have another cool night in this fabulous cabin.

Although Bob looks a little roughed up, you should see the other guys. (Probably the first time they ran into some Chicago boys!)
