Ed, Caroline, and the Northwoods

Ed, well, he came into the bicycle shop one day looking for an old Raleigh. He ended up finding a beautiful vintage Raleigh Super Course in that nice, rich, brown color. We probably drank a beer looking at the moustache handlebar and bar end shifter upgrades. 
Then, Ed came back. Ed saw my newest find (at the time)... a vintage olive green Raleigh Grand Prix. Oh, Ed, it happens to be in your size.
Well, then, Ed decided he'd like to try on some mechanics' hands and we built the Grand Prix together. 
We drank Modelo in the summer and ate cheese tamales at night.
Then the bicycle was done.
Then, Ed came back with Caroline. Caroline got a bicycle re-worked. We probably drank a beer and talked about those awesome half moon handlebars.
Then, Caroline called and said yo Beaner, let's do a wind-ow yo. And while I drank a beer, I painted a wind-ow. Caroline wanted it to be a surprise for Ed for X-mas.
Caroline made a sweet move... the wind-ow was a surprise for Ed.
"The Northwoods" is Ed's family house in the northern woods of Wisconsin. 
Sounds nice.

Caroline's and Ed's... "The Northwoods" Approx 28 inches x 16 inches SOLD
Thanks guys!
