  Well, today I sold my 'baby bike'. 
  
  
  
  This nice couple from Missouri came down and bought it. A friend of mine was in N.W. Arkansas the on Friday and happened to overhear a lady saying that she wanted to get a bike but wanted to start small, she said that she had looked at a Rebel and liked it.  He went over and told her about mine.  He called me and then me and the lady talked.   I had a very busy weekend ahead of me so it took a while going back and forth over the phone trying to set up a time for them to come the 250+ miles.  
  
  Friday night we had MA testing about an hour from where I live.  That started at 7pm and wasn't over until right about 10, then we had advanced training with Master Han.  It had to be short because we had to be out of the gym by 10:30.  Then a bunch of us went to a restaurant and we didn't get out of there until about 1 am which means it was nearly 2 am when I got home!
  
  Saturday was another testing - luckily only about 10 minutes from my house!
  I had to be there at 10 am.   We started training just before 11am and it lasted unitll noon when it was time to begin testing.  This testing was larger and lasted until about 5pm.  Then we had the belt presentations for the new brown and black belts. Then had to clean up the gym.  We tried to gather at TGI Fridays but it was some prom night and it would have been 1 1/2 hours before we could get seated.  Most people didn't want to wait so they disbursed and found food elsewhere.
  
  ANYWAY...
  Today - Sunday -
  I got up around 9am and cleaned the bike good and got it all ready for the couple coming down.
  At 1pm I took my family to watch Forbidden Kingdom (my second time) I love this movie!!
  I had to be back by 3:30 to meet them and my dad had to go over to our friends house to look at fixing their shed - which is falling apart.
  
  The couple came and she really liked the bike.  He kept trying to haggle the price down - dude!!  I already came down by $400!  Give me a freaking break!
  We finally settled and loaded her up on his pick-up and strapped her down good.  Then I watched them drive away with my baby.
  
  This does give my new ride a little more room in the carport.... if I can keep my dad from parking his Tahoe  too far in  for me to get past. LOL
