Straight outta Saskatchewan

My new project is a beauty. Dani found it on Craigslist from a guy who claims it's been sitting in a barn on a Saskatchewan farm. It's a pre war (1930s??) CCM cruiser. This is the one to match dani's ccm. It's not in the same shape we found dani's, but that's why it's called a project right! I will have to clean off rust, clean up the gusset welds and then either paint or clear coat it. I am tempted to just clearcoat it to leave the rustic charm. Then I'm going to have to hunt for wheels, ball bearings and a seat among other things. Should be a fun thing to work on in between exams. Thanks dani!!!

Maybe this post won't fit with my usual subject matter but perhaps I should reformat that anyways. I'm all settled into my new home in Portland and am fully immersed in full time student life. Endless hours of fresh air in the great outdoors has been replaced with endless hours in the library and anatomy lab trying to figure out all the O's and I's of life. I'v met lots of people and continue to struggle without food, which up until this point in life was always in the fridge when needed (seriously where does it come from!!). I think the hardest part about living here is seeing people consume so much light beer at parties and then go to taco bell to get the xxl chalupa or taco twelve pack. grossssssssssssssssssssssssss.
