The California trip was great, my sleeve is virtually finished, I'll post pictures in a few days when it is done peeling. I had some amazing tea, SF was great, easy to get around. Thanks to Spoiled for giving me a place to sleep.

I also stayed in Carmel Valley, Santa Barbara, and Ventura. What I got from the trip was I really want to move back down there, I just have to find a job before I move. Somewhere in LA or SF would be ideal as I'm craving big city after a year and a half of this small ski town.

Today I found a 1969 Moto Beta, I just started restoring it tonight, the gas tank is rusted, but it integrity seems to be fine, it looks like it had some coating on the inside that mostly saved it in its 22 years of sitting in a barn. So I'm going to try to sand out the rust and reseal it... we'll see how that goes. New tires on order.

Here it is sitting in my garage right after I unloaded it.

I hope it have it up and running in 2 weeks.

Update June 8th: Woot, successfully freed up the engine and got it to turn over this afternoon, new tires will be here tomorrow.
