Harley-Davidson

(NYSE: HOG, formerly HDI),

often abbreviated H-D or Harley, is an American motorcycle manufacturer. Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the first decade of the 20th century, it was one of two major American motorcycle manufacturers to survive the Great Depression. Harley-Davidson also survived a period of poor quality control and competition with Japanese manufacturers.

The company sells heavyweight (over 750 cc) motorcycles designed for cruising on the highway. Harley-Davidson motorcycles (popularly known as "Harleys") have a distinctive design and exhaust note. They are especially noted for the tradition of heavy customization that gave rise to the chopper-style of motorcycle. Except for the modern VRSC model family, current Harley-Davidson motorcycles reflect the styles of classic Harley designs. Harley-Davidson's attempts to establish itself in the light motorcycle market have met with limited success and have largely been abandoned since the 1978 sale of its Italian Aermacchi subsidiary.

Harley-Davidson sustains a loyal brand community which keeps active through clubs, events, and a museum. Licensing of the Harley-Davidson logo accounts for almost 5% of the company's net revenue.

Hi my friends,

New year is here and I hope you all had a great start into 2010!

We went to the beach, of course.... and there they were! Five of the most beautiful Harley Davidson motor cycles. They were cruising the island up and down enjoying the warming sunshine on their back. I could not resist not to take pictures and voila, here they are :)

My thanks are going to all my "old" loyal friends from 2009 and also from more back to 2006 who still come (almost every day) visiting and commenting my blog. I appreciate your words! And there have also been some new faces recently showing up. You are all very welcome to follow my daily blurbs and photos with your comments :)

See you tomorrow again?

I have decided also in 2010, I will continue my "Wordless Sunday" series with "pictures without words". These will be new pictures or pictures from my archives, from my travels or even pictures out from my fine art collection. For you, it should feel like opening a surprise box every Sunday, o.k.? :)

See you tomorrow!
Susanne

It was a Great and Strong Year!

Looking back to 2009 I can say, it was a great, happy and a "strong" year for us!

We made our "dreams come true" and did our since many years planned travel trip across America for almost 8 months - 20'000 miles on the road, from the East Coast to the West Coast and everything in between.

I'm so happy we did it, it was quiet a wonderful experience - and America is BEAUTIFUL!
We met a lot of people, made some new good friends and I have x-of hundreds of photographs in my archives now. There will be one day a book (or two) made with some of the best photos and I'll be selling them also as prints, framed or not and printed on canvas, online.

It was a wonderful year for us, yes! I wish you ALL a great 2010 too,
work on your dreams!

And today is a special day for someone special in my life : My love of my live - my husband and partner since almost 10 years now - it's his Birthday today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Darling, I LOVE you so much! Let's celebrate!

An Afternoon in the Park - HAPPY NEW YEAR!

A walk trough Hampton Park in Charleston on a sunny afternoon in December 08, that's what we did yesterday, hubby and I, before we went to an excellent Birthday dinner.

Ducks were gathering around in the pond, looking for all kind of food

Hello, Mr. Duck... I like your hat today!

And there are still some pretty colored Maple leafs left on that tree

December roses and Dragon Snappers are still blooming. I think, they don't know about the word "winter" at all.
