Hot Stuff

Our first Rally in the Woods was a hot one, in more ways than one. First of all, John's antique stove worked great for cooking all the hot dogs and hamburgers.


It even worked great for heating up our new branding iron!



The attendees were hot stuff too. Here's Jeff being the Chinaman, which is what we call his 'diverse' motorcycle too.


Guest appearance by our very own Jethro Tull, aka Brian.


Who is this hot dude?


As always, Sara was hot, hot, hot, too! "These boots are made for...riding!"


Sharon came all the way from Toronto to join in the fun and become a Pink Lady. She and Pepe even rode a motorcycle for the very first time.



Time to cool off with a ride in the woods.



First stop was at the 'Den of Antiquities' to view our two latest aquisitions. This is a 1919 light plant engine. It was used at a girls camp on an island at Raquette Lake in the Adirondacks. Some day it may even run again (the Ford 555 has precedence, followed by the Bayliner though!)


Then we couldn't resist this 1928 copper washing machine. My mother even remembers using the wringer on one like this, back when she was a child.


It was so hot and dry that it was even too dusty for dirtball. Trail riding was the way to keep the breeze in our faces. The riding really heated up towards the end of the day until Jimmy crashed his ATV into a tree and ended up fracturing two ribs. Get well soon Jim, and we're working on a great memorial plaque for you. Both you and Sara will go down in history!
