Here's a pic of the 1975 Honda CB 360t I just finished a complete restore on. I thought about carrying it in my 2020 Ranger XLT off road, to Vintage Honda get togethers but maybe best just to get a trailer smaller than the dovetail I have now. If there are any motorcycle trailers for sale, let me know.
I've got an yt vid of me finally getting to try and start it after a couple of years working on it by hand. It started....COOL. Also, a couple of pictures of my 2020 ranger. I'm going to take a pic with it and my 2001 ranger when I get the time.

Ha, excellent job! I remember back in the seventies when I was in university I borrowed one the same (well almost the same, his was gold) from a classmate to ride over to the other side of town to pick up an oil pump for my Kawasaki 500 two stroke I rode at the time.
Came back with the pump thanked him, and handed back the keys. And then he said "how'd you find the bike" I said engine is sweet, but it handles kind of funny" - and that's coming from a Kawasaki owner.
Then he told me how he'd bought it cheap because it had been in an accident and they'd never been able to get the frame alignment quite straight !

The joys of surf beaches in Australia. At least this far south you don't have to worry about box jellyfish, and crocodiles, as well.
But the sharks are real, several people were attacked around or near there last year.
It's a favorite camp ground for us in New South Wales about 4 hours drive south of where we live, its always quiet and pleasant.
There is an extensive lagoon system behind the beach and campground where my wife and I love to go kayaking and fishing.
Finaly I managed to upload the beach itself - it didn't want to upload when I posted this the other day - just on dawn when I went for an early morning walk. No sharks so far!

There is a winding wooden staircase in a Chapel in Santa Fe, NM. I've seen it.

The design was innovative for the time and some of the design considerations still perplex experts today.

When the Loretto Chapel was completed in 1878, there was no way to access the choir loft twenty-two feet above. Carpenters were called in to address the problem, but they all concluded access to the loft would have to be via ladder as a staircase would interfere with the interior space of the small Chapel.

Legend says that to find a solution to the seating problem, nine days of prayer commenced and on that ninth day a man appeared at the Chapel with a donkey and a toolbox looking for work. Months later, the elegant circular staircase was completed, and the carpenter disappeared without pay or thanks.

Inspiring!

Beautiful!!! It's amazing that Man can create such beauty and at the same time be so hateful to one another...bummer
It is amazing what some can create and I do give them huge credit for it. I posted this one back in October in the thread I made when we went to Arkansas but some might not have seen it there. It's a chapel down a small walkway out in the woods. So much detail and beauty that you'd never expect out there.

Spectacular! We would see them sometimes when I was a kid in Calgary but nothing as bold or dramatic as what you’re seeing where you are. Not even close. Beautiful.

If you don't already, you should get to know MISFITOY (Sid). He is in NC (pretty sure) as well. You have a nice truck BTW. If you meet him tell him it's his turn for lunch:clap:
