I didn't bring my laptop on the trip, so I had to wait until I got home to upload pictures.

A large cross overlooks the prairie at Groom, TX (East of Amarillo):



Bossier City Harley-Davidson (Bossier City, LA):



Yours truly at the Louisiana/Arkansas state line:



Rainy Saturday in Antlers:



I'm a big fan of the TV series Fast N' Loud. Since I was passing through Dallas on Sunday, I found the building where the show is filmed. It's located in an industrial area near downtown Dallas. The area was deserted, but in the few minutes I was there, several other people drove by to gawk and take pictures:



And since I was in the area, I went by the Gas Monkey Bar & Grill which is owned by the Gas Monkey Garage folks and recently opened (I didn't eat there, I needed to get on my way to Abilene):



I didn't take any pictures of the Talimena Drive ride because it was too foggy to really see much.

Yeah, Vaughn is a swell place. If I never go through it again it will be too soon.

Oh yeah... you didn't have to stop to help a few Vic's on the side of road did you?
Not likely. I see your signature still shows a 2009 Hardly and not a 2014, what's up with that?

Cannot get either of the colors I want. All deliveries are accounted for. I apparently will be waiting for a bit until production catches-up.

Yours truly at the Louisiana/Arkansas state line:


I still think that color rocks. Seems every HD around here is black. WTF? Seems a lot of the manufacturers took a stupid pill in the last few years when it comes to colors. At least on the bikes I would consider. I mean flat paint? Who wants primer?

Certainly not black after your comment! The only two I like are the amber-whiskey and black or the sunglo red and cayenne. Don't really even like those two all the much.
