I've had a couple that were close to birth year cars. I'd like another mid-1970s Citroen again. They are fun cars. Expensive to keep on the road but oh so clever and comfortable. Or a mid 70s van with a V8 transplant could be a lot of fun. maybe when I win Lotto I can buy a really good one.

Got almost all of the down stairs completed. I definitely underestimated how long painting took. I also didn’t think every wall was going to need two coats. Wife added the laundry room in the mix, but I politely gave her that pet project. Just have to re roll the down stairs hall way then up to the master. The master is massive and is a horrible shade of maroon. I’m expecting two coats of primer and two coats of paint. Estimation it will take all day.
Planning on doing the group ride tomorrow am, but I think I will drive there instead of riding my bike to the starting line.

We gave our toaster oven to daughter #1 , so this is a fancy schmancy toaster oven. Plus you can fry air with it. Possibly.

2 of our customers had them painted, 1 black and 1 red. It was quite a process to get paint to adhere to the stainless steel.

Friend of mine had one and kept it going. However, he had been an Electrician’s Mate on submarines for years and had also converted a classic VW to electric motor from scratch, so he wasn’t exactly normal.

That’s too high a resting heart rate. Verify with manual pulse and if real, you should get it checked at your doctor’s office. Not enough data to give a diagnosis.
edit: I misread graph. If that’s just during a ride the average HR is not a concern. The spike is probably not true/real but you still may want to get a real cardiac event monitor from your doctor to be sure.

Be careful, and go to the doctor, that's the kind of random spike I would see with my v tach. Before I found out I was assuming it was my heart rate monitor screwing up, I called it the random number generator. Heart rate monitors are very good at counting beats, and ventricular tachycardia is no joke, it can kill you. Sorry to be a wet blanket, but this may be serious.

I was born/delivered in a 1950 Chevy (in 1951). Should I try to find one?

Why would anyone put a sign in the road? Must have been a gravel rider who did it. Rube.
I rode on the highway that goes by there twice last month and still don't know where it is.

Tough day on the lawn today. I spent two hours cleaning up debris from Laura. Then, before I had even boarded the lawn tractor, another rainstorm rolled in and blew even more branches to the ground. 
Finally got going, but when I had about half an hour left to go a second downpour hit.
The weather hates me.
