On the road to "Leadsled Spectacular" show

We left Sunday for Wichita KS and then to the KKOA show in Salina, KS. As we arrived in Des Moines we had a bad noise in the rear end. I called my Buddy Dave and asked to use his shop. He has a great "toy" shop, 3 lifts, every tool you could think of. After a bit of checking we discovered the problem...rear wheel bearings were shot. Luckily O'Riley's are open till 8 PM on Sunday. We switched the bearings, added new lub and put it all back together. Runs real quiet now. Dave and Sandy invited us to spend the night at their house...nice! We had dinner and several Margueritas at the local cafe and then headed to their place.
Today we antiqued all the way to Lincoln....several shops, few miles. In the morning its off to Wichita. Will be a short 200 miles or so.
