[OHPV-list] Tweety's Couch Potato Ride

[Kirke Johnson]

We also left the bikes indoors, but unfortunately got caught out Sunday
afternoon with the trailer after making a Christmas furniture delivery.
Ended up leaving it at the bottom of the first neighborhood hill after
sliding the whole rig sideways down the hill - a first time for me with that
particular trick!  ;-{

Home was a little challenging this weekend as well - had a chimney fire that
was spitting flaming embers of creosote onto the roof. And the winds peeled
part of the roofiing off the wood shelter. Anyone interested in a side trip
to a warmer climate for a week or more?
