    It's an old freight terminal, nothing fancy. Walmart and the usual assorted chain food places are all within a mile or so. There is a shower, again nothing to write home about but a place to wash up. Safe area, quite for the most part.

    I'm not a restaurant person so I don't have any advice on where any local "must eat" places are. I can tell you where there's a good food/farmers market for getting fresh meat, seafood and produce but that's about as much help as I can be for food.

    Yeah, it’s so tender and it’s about 16 oz of medium steak. They pile on the rice and vegetables. When he was dishing out the rice with his spatula, my 2 yr old held her plate out and said I want some. Then she grabbed her spoon, ate it and looked at him real serious and said “it’s delicious”.

    To date we've move exactly 30 sets of wings for the BA program in Canada yet every trip we meet the 30 guys who "used" to haul them and get to hear all about the 100 each one of them hauled.

    Driver: I'd like to go home.
    Dispatch : why?
    Driver: my wife wants sex, and I'd like to be their when she has it.

    Shooter,

    I hope your motor ain't too bad. Just for a conversation piece, here's what one of my bikes did a few years ago.

    Custom ported heads with reshaped combustion chambers and the place that did them won't work on the old airhead motors anymore. I finally found a guy that welded and reshaped everything, she runs just fine, and it cost way less than I feared.

    Hopefully you come out as good.
