Went to the "AARP concert" tonight with my son... Ministry, Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie.

 

Would love that tour to come here! I've seen Alice a number of times, and he always puts on a great show. Really want to see both other acts.

I got through watching my favorite Green Acres episode that's entitled "Uncle Ollie" online that I haven't seen for a long while. After seeing Oliver's hip nephew Chuck souping up the motor in his uncle's tractor, I came up with an idea of making a used car lot style diorama using a few of my hot rod models and naming it "Hootervile Hot Rods" with Chuck as the proprietor.

I always get a kick and laugh from that show! Everyone can understand Arnold the pig but Mr Douglas..

The last two weeks have been crazy as heck at my school bus company but things are finally starting to slow down. The General Manager had to double up the school runs for some of the drivers including me due to others having to take time off for personal matters but most are back now. It's Friday and my bank account will be a whole fatter soon enough  In addition, two new drivers were hired and 6 new buses that the Big Boss bought will be coming into service early next week. I only have to my regular school this afternoon and it's off for the weekend.

Taking an extended weekend with the wife in Traverse City, MI.  Also ran to Leland, an old historic fishing village.  God I love the Great Lakes.  I could see living here.

Nice area there, might not be saying that in a few months.

I reached my bike riding mileage goal for this year. 3010 miles in 66 rides with 146,062 ft of climbing.

Retiring certain helps with the mileage. 😁

Sweet road bike!  I ride Cannondale too.👍

Haven’t had it out once this year though.

I still enjoy watching even their reruns on TV. The show has a great energy with no wrench throwing or drama like so many others. They both look like they're very happy and loving people. I like how they show what all they are doing in their builds and they're not full of themselves.

My wife used to work in HR for a school bus company.  Nearly everyone in the company had their CDL and school credentials. When the day got rough everyone in the office went out and did routes. There were days when hardly anyone was in the office!  She wasn't about to learn to drive a bus in her sixties!
