Good evening Folks, It has been a while since i have posted on our site. I have been laying low. For reasons i cant get into, i left my wife Mary in the beginning of October. It had been coming for a while. I relocated down near the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Deals gap. I am starting anew. Ive met some great people down here, but they all make fun of my Boston accent. I reckon they'all get over it. I have been on the board as a lurker, and Ron's morning pictures make my day.  It is great to see the NE board still active even though most no longer Valks, But good to see Tony and Brett to name a few with over 100,000 miles Ill chime in from time to time, and will , and always did have my friends in my thoughts . Take care folks Merry Christmas Shorty |

Jeff, good luck on the changes. You picked a great place to relocate too, awesome riding and better weather. I want to relocate down there somewhere in the next few years when its time to pull the plug on this gig.
Stay safe and be well.

Shorty, my man. Good to hear you are well. Glad you've decided to make yourself happy. The Blue Ridge and NC in general are where Kathy and I talk about retiring to all the time. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to retire till 5 years after I'm dead.
As far as the accent goes, tell them all the the Birthplace of the New World is Plymouth Ma, and the Birthplace of The Revolution Is Boston. We speak perfect English, they bahstidized when they moved south.
Peace my friend, and Merry Christmas to you.

Jeff, great to hear from you. With the BBQ's you've hosted and the rides you've been on, we've all had great times together. Now we've got another reason to ride the BRP to take a trip to see you. I hope to get down that way some day. I wish you the best! A pic from the good times below.  Some mighty fine 'que served that day.... |

Thanks all for all the greetings and well wishes! I still have the Goldwing, and it is here with me.
If any of you find yourself in my area, please feel free to look me up. I have room here for a weary traveler to spend a day or night or two.
Maybe at some point i will trek up to Americade! but until then i will stop by here and visit.
Merry Christmas everyone from Tennessee
Love
Shorty

Welcome to the South Shorty.  One of the hardest things about moving South was leaving our NEVRCC family.  Good news. I'm only a few hours away in SC. You better come make a visit, guest room with bath is waiting for you. Carol needs some one else to cook for. We can pick up where we left off in MA....... great riding roads, ice cold beer and new friends await..... oh, did I mention we have two huge Bike Weeks each year here also. Till then, Glide-on>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> |
