2004 Harley Davidson Softail Custom with stage two upgrade, Vance & Hines 2 to 1 exhaust and lots of chrome extras. Too much chrome really, when it come to cleaning and polishing! Bot alot of fun to ride. I've been on two long road trips since purchasing it in 2007 from my good friend Mike Sorenson. First trip in May of 2007 was to Southern Utah to tour the National Parks. I rode with my buddy John Todd and met up with friends Marshall Baker and Don Long. Almost got hit in a head-on collision in Duck Creek, Utah...and again with deer in Grand Canyon national Park. Our second trip was a 2,500 mile ride to Durango, Colorado through Arizona and New Mexico in May of 2008. Due the economy, no long trip was planned for 2009...originally we had planned a rental trip through the Austrian Alps but decided to shelve that trip until the 'Stimulus Package' kicks in!

Edika starts a blog

I suppose it's about time that we entered the new century by starting our own blog as we have so much to be thankful for and hobbies to share...so here it goes.

Monika loves reading, quilting, crocheting, sewing and spoiling her grandchildren.

Ed loves singing, playing the ukulele, sailing, hunting, fishing and motorcycle riding.

We have 3 children and 3 grandchildren (so far) Eva-Maria married to Mathew Robins with two girls, Abigail and Katherina; Markus married to Lydia Jakob with one son, Maximillian and Andreas attending Mt. SAC preparing to transfer for a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
