The Day I bought my bike 4/29/2000

...I couldn't wait another second! Even though we had a scheduled spaghetti dinner fundraiser at our church that I was needed to help with, and Shaeffer's HD had their annual Spring open house scheduled that day, I just HAD to have my bike. I convinced Shaeffer's to do our paperwork that day, and we hurried on down, got things ready on our end--insurance, $$$ (hehe), and off we went. I originally planned to have Dave take many pictures, me signing the papers, the driving off the lot, close up, but when we got down there we couldn't believe the crowd for open house! There had to be over 150 biker people in the parking lot, store, etc. The local HOG chapter had a food tent and displays setup. All I could think about was how nervous I would be driving my first Harley off this lot with all these people watching! LOL, so We forgot the picture taking and took care of business at hand. Here are a few shots we did get. Unfortunately, because we had to hurry to get back and help with the fundraiser, I wasn't able to take the time to enjoy my first day with my bike, but the important thing is now that I had her we had the next day to ride all day, which we did! Since I am loving this bike more and more this particular day in my life has more & more significance, as I knew it would! : )

That's me driving up the road, just after pulling out of the lot at Shaeffer's! "Smile!" I missed a turn we had to make a stop, a photo opportunity.
"Do I look happy or WHAT?!?""She's so little & cute next to Dave's full dresser! See why she's my 'baby'?"
