Enjoying summer here on Wisconsin's Riviera. Had several quick trips to UP in early June for one funeral and several memorial celebrations. Some nice rides on the motorcycle, then it went to shop on June 28 for tires and rebuild of noisy speedometer. The requested Dunlop 404 front tire was on back-order, so had front brake pads and hose installed while waiting for tire. Also, speedometer was making loud shriek, so had that removed and sent to a specialist in Milwaukee for rebuild. Should be back last week of July. Went to Road America on Friday June 16 to enjoy quali day at vintage races. Triplets came over in afternoon, stayed until Sunday, was a wonderful chance to hang out with them. Tuesday May 20 was the launch of Bezos' Blue Origin sub-orbital flight, and also the 52nd anniversary of the Apollo moon landing that I'd watched with Bomber at King's Carpet in Pound WI. And it was also the night that the Milwaukee Bucks, powered by Giannis Antetokounmpo's 50 points, won the NBA title in game 6 after losing the first 2 games in Phoenix, winning games 3 & 4 at home, then beating the Suns in Phoenix in game 5 ... setting up a wild scene in MKE with 25000 in the stadium and 65000 in the Deer District outside. As Shel Silverstein wrote, "Oh what a day, oh what a day!"
