Barry & The Harley ~

I have a good friend who is pretty amazing when it comes to defying the odds. Barry has been a friend for many years at one time he guided for us until he got severely injured in a logging accident.  He just about didn’t make it but thank goodness he did.  Unfortunately he became a parapalegic.  But that has never stopped him from “living”.  He is a really smart guy ~ stubborn too.   His latest adventure is worth sharing.  He continues to work and has continued to work a way around that inconvenient wheelchair. I’ve seen other “conversions” that Barry has created for himself ~from trucks to logging equipment to snowmobiles to pontoon boats. He also  loves to travel , so why not convert a Harley Davidson motorcycle into one that he can use & enjoy.  He hasn’t finished his latest “conversion” project but I have no doubt that it will be completed soon.  Here are some photos of Barry & The Harley…

It started with an idea , a plan &  a Harley~barry 1Barry~DSC_4852barry 2DSC_4849DSC_4857 copyDSC_4851DSC_4866DSC_4860DSC_4868DSC_4869

The Sunflower Seeds ~

 

I never get tired of seeing these animals and birds.  It amazes me how they survive the cold winters.
