        I am in serious pursuit of M&M. Thank you for the opportunity Mike & Marilyn. Thanks for watching out for me Bruce. I just went into the selling mode. Anyone know anyone who is a serious motorcycle enthusiast that is in the market for a sport touring motorcycle? I would make them a super deal on my amazing 1998 Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird.

          Does this mean you bought the Skagit?

              Yes, Mike and I have an arrangement. I will be taking possession of M&M this spring. I feel very fortunate to get my old '57 back again. Mike and Mary took wonderful care of the boat and I am very lucky that Mike sought me out for the first shot at her. I'm sure I will keep her in the family this time. It ends up my wife likes Skagit cruising almost as much as me. I just wish she'd told me that before I sold her, because I would have kept her. Sometimes you just don't know how much you'll miss all those shared experiences until they're gone. We're lucky to get a 2nd chance. Thanks Mike & Marilyn!
