Dang....
Can't keep a secret from anyone....
Yepper, our annual gathering in the Shenandoah National Park is just around the corner and I'm expecting company from Texass to be riding through Tennessee. I'll hook up with them and ride one of the bike up. If I don't spend some time on the ole Yamaha triple, I'll have to ride the hog, Blue Midnight, up to Virginia. On second thought, I'd probably weather the trip better if I rode Blue Midnight anyway. It's definitely more comfortable for my old bones.
As for the light above the kitchen stoop, I'm sure that some of the current residents of the inn probably replaced it when it went kaput during your absence.... :) I'll get a replacement so it won't be so bright at the back entrance.
As for protection, I'm sure that if you needed any, and I mean needed, I could be persuaded to break out the cattle prod....
