He's OK....I talked to him on Saturday. He's got a lot going on that's distracting him from his RVating.

Spike,
I just talked to the Captain and he needs a password reset. He needs it sent to the same email address as he had before except it is now at aol.com. I told him I'd post on this thread and ask that you or one of the moderators take care of it for him.
Thanks,

Hey guys, thanks for checking in. Things here at home have been entertaining to say the least. I think you all know what is up by now.
I got the AIDS. Aviation Induced Divorce Syndrome. No problem really. When all is said and done, I will have lost 115 pounds that has really been bothering me for a long time and I will be better off because of it!
Long story, but I won't go into it here. I can tell you this, I did nothing wrong. She just is impossible to live with. The last guy said the same thing!
I should have listened to my mother. Mother always knows best!
On the good side of things, my Suzuki Boulevard is really nice!
I will check in from time to time, but I won't be on like I was last summer. I hope to take the bike to OSH so, maybe I will see you there!?!
Hope you all are doing better than me! When all the dust settles I will tell you more.

CJ

Sorry to hear that CJ. If you need any comic relief, just visit here. We're thinking of making a new forum catagory:
Pick on Chad
Hope things turn out well. Hang in there. See you at OSH

Thanks guys.
I may just keep on going after OSH and tour the country with the bike.
John R. was kind enough to offer a room to me should I make it out there. I am not even sure I know where Iowa is!?! Do I need a passport to get there? That is one of those square states, isn't it?
I am using this summer to think things over and plan my future. No hurried decisions will be made by me. I never do that anyways.
It is good to know that I have some friends here! Everyone I know has been soooo supportive, except of course my wife!
I help her through many things over this past decade and in the last 5 months I help her have a kidney removed and bury her mother and she hits me with this?
Some people are just totally ungrateful and unappreciative, I guess.
I digress...
Thanks again guys! See you all soon!

Johny:
Needless to say I am very sorry to hear this.
Left you a message, but I will say it here too. If you need to get away, we are just up the road.

Well CJ - Iowa is easy to find. Look for the flood and tornado damage

CJ--
Keep that head up.
When your two wheels cross the TX state line, beer/CA Morgan is on me.

CJ stopped by the other night, and let me take his new two wheellaah for a ride. Let me tell you it's a great bike to kick back and relax and ride the open road. (Thanks CJ for letting me take it for a spin.)
All you need now is a side-car attachment for Wyatt !!
I wish I could join you on your trek, but it's just not in the cards for me right now. Perhaps when the kids get a little older and I quit coaching baseball for two teams a year. (13 year old & 7 year old boys)
I think your doing it right... so don't look back, and move forward my friend. We are there for you should you need it.

Hey CJ...
I don't even know you, but having been through a divorce myself, I feel your pain. It's been about 8 years ago for me, and I'm getting married again in less than 2 weeks. Life gets good again and goes on. If your riding takes you all the way over here to Oregon, you have a place to stay and a cold one waiting for you. I live 25 minutes from Van's and we could go down and tour the factory. Good luck, my friend.

aw man CJ, that's rough!
It's looking more and more like I'm not gonna get to osh this year either. If you happen to get down south on that fancy machine of yours, please give me a call! You need to come see this aussie pup of mine, he's all grown up now!
Be safe on the bike!
