Keep the brain spinning

A major part of the day was spent taking Cliff all around the wonders of the county from the lake, the dam, the coal mines, the gas plant, and back to old Hazen.  The first part of the trip as the car climbed the hill North of Hazen we encountered a few bikers. Kadizzle thought it odd to see so many bikers.  More and more appeared.  Ah, ha, it is the Candisc.  The Candisc is an annual 500 mile bike trip around North Dakota. Tonight the bikers would descend on Hazen.  Since The Commander rode for many years in the adventure she made many friends.  Kadizzle notified The Commander the Candisc was in full bloom.

When Cliff and Kadizzle returned sure enough The Commander had invited bikers to the back yard for beer and chips.  The dinner plan was to eat turkey served at the school with the bikers. Kadizzle noticed as he walked out the kitchen the bumper sticker that showed up from somewhere.  It said  DUMP TRUMP.  Kadizzle attached it to his T shirt.  It looked like it had been silk screened on.  So off he went to the bike dinner expecting to have some fun with people.  Sure enough the brave came and supported the idea and some good conversations arose.  It sort of acted like a sieve to determine who had the courage to speak and who was afraid to confront the nut with the DUMP TRUMP shirt.  While sitting with a man conversing about the current state of political affairs the tall anorexic editor of The Hazen Star walked by.  The poor guy is cursed with a love for right wing idiots. However, as God would have it he has enough sense to dispose Trump, which left him in a pickle. So we had a little discussion about how he would vote.  Lightening would strike him dead if he voted for Hillary, so he planned to vote for a third party candidate. Shooting political BS with the bikers was fun. They are by definition a liberal bunch.

At the dinner there was an amazing pie display.  Kadizzle could not keep Little Joey from the pie.  There were so many slices of pie that might be left over that Kadizzle feared they could not store them all. Kadizzle offered to store some of the pie at home.  When Kadizzle told Dallas the good neighbor about his kind offer to store the excess pie. Dallas stared at Kadizzle's belly a.k.a. Little Joey and said " It looks like you have already been storing some pie".
