Go away bad weather

I’ll take phone a friend for $100 Alex, before this wind blows me to Smilax hope this storm doesn’t get too bad, or Cheekie will never relax. The proper number of hours of sleep I wish to max. Beter find a way to get my bike off the basement floor. Mud in the gears fromContinue reading “Go away bad weather”
