Cleaning battery acid after accident

 After my dad's motorcycle 🏍️ accident 

I had to charge the battery πŸ”‹ and fill it each red compartment full of fluid.  Battery juice leaked all over the motorcycle frame.  So I took the seat off and cleaned up the mess.  

A photo of my dad foot.  After his accident, hes been moving slow.  I dug up his garden and harvested his onions and potatoes.

And then got home to clean the battery acid off.  It was about to rain after I charged it and fill the battery with fluid.

So I had to ride it back before the roads got slick.

Today I wipe it down with water and a paper towel.

Some marks on the bike are going to stay.

I guess my ambition to ride motorcycles with my dad are done. Which is sort of a bummer.  I was looking at getting one myself instead of using just his.

But after two accidents with in two years. I think he's done.

I'm still looking at bikes. And before he sells this one I'm riding it,. Maybe next year I'll get me a dually.

If finances improve.


A few photos after surgery and I see his ankle looks quite sore.

Some broken ribs and I guess today was his first night able to sleep on his side.

Which is a game changer in his books.

The handle grips to protect the hands are catching the clutch so it does this jumping motion after you let it go and throttle it cause it takes a second for the clutch to let go after you let it go. As lately it lift the front tire in first and second cause of the delay and acceleration.  Made a few fun days ☺️ before that changed.

The start of Shenton Creation's

  This 2021 we are starting, A new endeavour.  A project that has been talked about for the new year is Kim and my time crocheting, so wood projects and treats we make for our dog.   Hopefully this is the start of an encouraging way to discover new ways into our friends, family and ourselves in a journey with a project, this will commemorating our first blog together, one I have been asking Kim to start for some time.  Hopefully to have more enthusiasm to keep up with our little knickknacks and novelties. To make trinkets in out time and share these moments of thought together bringing about well-spent time jointly. Next post will be on the afghan that I have been working together and could be done on a solid color or two colors of picking. The suspense of this afghan is squares, with white trim. Here part of it set on a chair. Kim is working on a pink one that I will work on the trim as soon as we have enough squares.    Over the holidays πŸŽ„ πŸŽ… w...
