Ann's Chateau & the cabin

Below are pictures of our 1886 home, Ann's Chateau, named after MA's mom, and the main living room, and the hallway library. Below are pictures of our cabin, lake, and barn MA built 90% by herself with a hammer and chainsaw! We had some help with cabin logs and framing, but MA finished inside by herself also.

Blake's invented custom muffler!

Made from many items including a coffee carafe and coffee mug! Sounds and runs great!

On the subject of bike lights

i put my modulator on the back of my headlight (not alot of finger room, and was a challenge, but did it!) i drilled a tiny hole for the sensor and am pleased with the whole situation. i really notice a difference. cars rarely pull out in front of me. if im following a decent driver, i turn it off because i am sure it can be annoying. if im following an azzhole i use it and they usually pull over cuz they think im a cop or at any rate it seems to scare them enough to drive right or get out of my way! LOL!! i also have one on my H*nda shadow, and that sensor is zip tied to the mirror. i also have modulating brake lights, and bright led brake lights made by raymelosh@yahoo.com These are very effective and very visible. email him for info. he and his wife are in their 70's and they did alaska 2 up on his R1100, 11,500 miles, this summer. he also has an airhead. Ray built these lights and sells them, so drop him a note. He lives in michigan. Since we are on the subject of lights, and you can laugh at me, but i put red led strips under the tank on my H*nda. it looks very cool AND makes me more visible at night. im thinking about putting them on my F650GS.. its yellow, so i would put yellow lights. i have heard them called feather lights, pussy lights, and a few other terms i can't think off. wondering if any of you have used them.
