Hey Spiderman, good to hear from you......I know you're exhausted, esp. emotionally.  But, always good to get 'home'.  And what if HD does offer a 2008 CVO Road Glide?  Then what about LD?  har!  spyder

Good question my friend. The way I see it if H-D doesn't offer an 08 RG, then LD is a solid $30k sale. If they do offer an 08 RG then there's little sense in offering LD up for sale as I've got way too much time, money and care in this bike to give it away.

I need to vent. Sometimes it's easier to do so with strangers so hope you folks don't mind.

There will be no need for me to be spending my vacations in Maine caring for the family estate. It is being sold to the prosthestisis who made my Dad's artificial leg(s) the last ten years of his life. Seems that while I was doing what was best for my family by accepting a position with many career opportunities here in California and while my brother was out to sea Captaining various Merchant ships, this person ingratiated himself with my aging parents as a defacto son. I couldn't understand why every spring and fall when I'd offer to fly to Maine to open or close the estate for the year I was turned down, now I do. This mercenary was worming his way into my folks heart. Please don't tell me to contact a lawyer. I've already done that and after spending $400/hr the answer is that my Mom and Dad owned everything jointly, when my Dad passed it automatically became my Mom's. She is going through with the sale. I also called the mercenary son of a bitch and appealed to his sense of right and wrong stating that if my Mom wanted to sell my brother and I would buy. I asked him to step aside and allow the property to stay in the family. He refused.
     Some day hopefully a number of years away, when my Mom passes, I get a call from a lawyer I've never met and a check. Not what I wanted believe me. No amount of money can replace what that estate on Sebago Lake means to me.
     The moral of the story here is this. Don't trust that anything will turn out the way you believed it would. Don't trust anyone to do what you want. Even if it feels awkward, stick your nose into things that do affect you. I hope nobody has to deal with the heartbreak I am experiencing.

Sorrry to hear this, It's a shame there are people like this that prey on the elderly as I am aware of some from my home town that have done so and wish there was a way to stop them. It is just wrong.

B B, I can't even begin to fathom what you must be feeling now.

It's easy enough when this happens to say it's just stuff as it most often involves family and dividing up belongings, but when it involves a "place" a "special place" where you and family spent countless hours and times together with memories that can never be replaced and to know it won't be there any longer, well, my heart aches for you.

Sorry doesn't express how I feel, it's just a tragedy, actually it's a travesty.

I am so sorry....  i have been through a recent chitty estate experience on a slightly smaller scale...    but i know how it cuts to the heart

[Fired00d]

B B,
Man I'm so sorry to hear this. You've shared many times how much this place meant to you and the memories that it holds. To have this happen I know has left an empty feeling in your heart that no words can make feel better. Hang in there Bro and if you need an ear to chew on you know who to call.

 
Ride Safe,
Fired00d

Sorry to read of your posting Brian...Other than support, I wish I could provide you the assistance you are due.  It is my belief that folks like the one you speak of with face their due in the end.

Good Luck with this matter.

[The Mysterious Q!]

WTF! I can't even begin to tell you how pissed this makes me feel. People like that are scumbags. I am truly sorry to hear how all this went down. And to think you thought your Aunt was going to throw you under the bus. Well like Gary said call me if you want to chat. We missed each other testerday and we need to catch up. If there is anything I can do just holler. L7R,Q

[Midnight Rider]

Brian...so sorry to hear of this series of events, bro.  I know you are pissed, but worse, I'm sure you are heartbroken to lose a place that is obviously so special to both you and your brother.  Makes me sad to hear such news, and angry at the manipulative SOB who is low enough to do such a thing to a family.  I hope brighter days are ahead of you, as you've had your share of dark ones of late.  You have lots of brothers and sisters here who will support you in whatever way necessary, so if you need an ear, just let me know.

I feel for ya Brian. What the hell is wrong with some people.

I have a cousin that started preying on my mother about a year ago. My mother took her the Atlantic City, to FL for a vacation, Red Hat club events, etc. My sisters and I kept a close watch on it and warned my mother that something didn't seem right. Just last week my mother kicked her ass to the curb.

I hope you can find some sort of resolution, take care,
Ed

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.

All ideas will be given due consideration. If you don't feel comfortable in the public forum, PM me
