Forever ago Indian

So its been like twenty years since I have written. I guess you could say I got lost in living life and making a living and all the other essentials of life that get in the way of living.

Lots has happened, and I don't even really want to get into it. What I do want to get into isn't what happened, but what is happening. All my conscious life I have been fascinated with motorcycles, and the most elusive of all has been the Indian motorcycles from the early 1900s. So I decided to build one.

As of this writing I have about eight pieces of a motorcycle that isn't a motorcycle. After a month of indecision, I decided to focus on a 1947 Chief. As I go through the process of restoring this thing, I have been writing about the bike and my life and the things life has been teaching me along the way. So far it has been a blast. And I find new life beginning to grow in me. I haven't really written much in the whole year of 2010, so it feels good to get back in the saddle.

So there is a new adventure in life. I hope to be keeping you up to date with this blog from time to time, chronicling my frustrations and victories along the way. Hope you enjoy...
