Paula's post reminds me of a funny story.

A few years ago, when I first got my bike, I rode to my buddy's parents' house in RI to meet him. We were going to see Buddy Guy at Lupo's in Providence, so it was a good central place (me in MA at the time, he in CT). Who knew, but it was his youngest sister's prom night!! The sister was across the road at Grandma's house getting ready, and her dad was in the garage, everyone expecting the DATE to show up any second!! I had NO idea why his dad was giving me a REAL dirty look till I took my helmet off! So funny...
02 BA, lots of goodies...
I may live in NY, but I grew up in VT! I'm a local for this one...
