What a nice way to wake up, thanks to all that welcomed me, especially from around the world, but also here in the USA.... My heritage is Scandinavian, my GGF was Swedish, my GGM was from Norway, Trisil, so when they fell in love, got married they had to go to America as their respective parents would not accept that they were from different countries, after all this was 1867....LOL well times have sure changed.. My grandpa and Grandma ran the family farm in ND...til it was sold off in the 70's to pay medical bills...my grandpa was a fixit man, everyone in the area came to Gill to get stuff fixed, welded, mechanical, or electrical he did it all.. I got his genes...I too am a fixit kinda guy....one reason I bought the Harley... the Goldwing was boring... great to ride, but did not make any statement... and did not need me to fuss over it....the 84 vintage steel will need my attention, this is a good thing....
thanks again
Capn
