Telephone.....GOOD!

First I'll say today was a real Hootenanny! I Lost track of what was going on up front as the lovely Angela was running that, 'cause the inmates were having WAY to much fun running the asylum! We broke out in our own reenactment of "the Birdcage" that had Adam blushing (not to mention a HINT nervous at least I think so 'cause he kept backing up everywhere) and then we got on a character dissemination of "Dora the Explorer" that would have raised some questioning eyebrows! All the while watching The Godfather trilogy with one eye.
Oh yea, we were able to get some work done too.
Jose' put out (with a little help from yours truly. Hey it's OK Jose's SPECIAL, and today was his helmet day) a Gorgeous GT timberline, raised from the dead of a scrap truck. You wouldn't believe the transformation!
I cranked out a SWEET Catapult dual shock MTB (also a frame find) and a couple kids bikes we picked up today! Adam did his bit (to hide out back) and to clean (a little) and strip down and start to clean and rebuild an Acid Wash Murray. Yep, no fooling, in the 90's (you know mullets and acid wash jeans) Murray put out a red and a blue acid wash paint job. Kinda cool though i always like getting them in.
The Dual shock MTB went out to a lucky young lady and we thank her mom for discovering us! Thanks for checking us out and visiting. We're very happy we had something she'd like (and more importantly fit!)
And on the "Folks are starting to listen" front, Had an AWESOME call (thank you very much) from A gentleman out on Indian Shores, looking for a bike for him and his wife (I hope it's for his wife or I may have gotten him in trouble!) who somehow got sucked into checking out our little blog site, and apparently enjoyed it (no accounting for taste) He was calling to see if the Peugeot we had listed was available, Surprisingly it WAS. WAS being the optimum word. Love our conversation Bill, and really DO look forward to meeting you on Sunday, but as is usually the case around here, you blink...and it's gone!
Shortly after that conversation I had another call from a gentleman in south Clearwater who also came upon the Blog and REALLY wanted the Peugeot and wanted it delivered as he didn't want to risk missing out on it before he was able to get in. Well Jose was available to get it there so we were able to make a young man QUITE happy! AWESOME!
And Thanks again to all the folks for bringing us their re-pairs today, ESPECIALLY the young couple who came in with their sons bikes and the youngest boy was SO excited to be getting it repaired so he could ride again! I LOVED the look on his little face! PRICELESS!
All in all a FAB-U-Lous DAY!
