We visited the motorcycle[parts] today!

First Stop:  Pike's Peak Harley Davidson to visit the innards of the bike.  The wonderful people at Harley took the bike apart for us and delivered the body parts to the artist and they are storing the main bike until the painting is done.

Second Stop:  The artist's shop.  He has stripped the body of all paint and applied a primer which had to cure for a week and then he started on the actual artwork.  When we got there today, he had gotten a good partion of the tank started and it is AWESOME!
This is just the beginning of the design that will be on both sides of the tank

The artist -- Tom Stack -- working on the tank.

And then on the way home, we passed a wildfire that was just starting to pick up speed.  The firefighters were on the way and they were hoping that one pass with the helicopter would put it out.  I really do find myself longing for winter.
