Again today was another Romeo Lunch Ride.... This time to the town of DeSoto, Kansas. And it is on the way from Kansas City to Lawrence just North of the four lane highway...
That was good because it was about 43 degrees when I finally was brave enough to leave the house here and endure the temps... But I only had to go about 40 miles and I went on the back highways so I kept the speed down under 50.... And that is much warmer than interstate speeds...
The object of the ride was Wanda's Roadside Cafe....
As usual there were bikes from one end of the little business district to the other.....
Once inside we had a nice breakfast or lunch of your choice....
I had a breakfast, but didn't realize that I should have had a lunch.... This was the special that Wanda had made just for us today.....
I asked Larry here if he thought he could eat all of that meatloaf, and he said something to the effect that I should keep my distance from his plate......
After the big meal, we all adjourned to Dean Weller's Ford Garage.....
Once inside, this 84 year old antique car collector had quite the collection of cars. They dated way back in vintage to well before I was born... I took soo many pictures that I decided to add them as a slide show..
Suffice to say that many of the vehicles are now priceless...
Nice to see so many photos on your blog today, Rod, especially the one of that Meatloaf. I'd be going for that too!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you got away from your computer for a while and out into the real world - I should try that!
Man, I watched that video. Just amazing. I kinda "get it". I feller can go out to the shop and just get lost in creating stuff. Could be cars. Could be woodworking. Welding. Whatever.
ReplyDeleteAmazing what he's done with those cars. But I must admit, I don't envy those who have to go through it after he's gone. I think about those things now a days. Meatloaf would have been a great choice. Sounds like you might have lost a finger if you'd gotten too close to it.
