She did, bless her heart!!! Here's her story of her visit to the motorcycle dealership:
(from: my mama)
(to: me and my facebook friends)
Well, let me tell you about my trip to Harley Davidson dealership.
First of all your father would not let me go by myself - so he goes with me. When I turned off Hwy 17 to enter Harley's parking lot I said, "Oh, please Lord, don't let anyone see me".
We went in and I was stunned. I have never seen so many motorcycles in my life!!! There were so many people in that place and they must have had at least 20 employees. About five dove at me and asked if they could help me and of course I gave them my honey dripping smile and said, "Hon, of course you may". Your Dad pretended he didn't know me and went to look at the 'wheels'.
Oh, good Lord, all of y'all should have been flies on the walls - some of the clothing items blew me away! The young lady asked me if my daughter had a Harley. I gasped and said, "Heavens no!!", then caught myself and honestly I don't know what I said after that.
After my purchase I was asked to go upstairs to the bar, have a drink and play pool. Again, I almost died, looked for your Dad and said, "It's time for us to go".
I really was impressed with the staff and facility. I do wish them a success in Shallotte.
Sorry, I didn't mean to ramble - and by the way I mailed your shirt express mail.
Luv ya!
Ma
p.s. I forgot to tell you, your Dad was the one who selected the shirt we purchased (and then disappeared) and Lord have mercy it is trashy!!!

How awesome is my Sainted Southern Mother? Seriously. She reads this blog (which is why I don't use "ugly" words or tell "vulgar" stories), so give her some love!

Leigh Ann, your mom is so funny! I cannot envision her trip in there. It is ok Mrs. Birdie...we won't tell anyone! You are such a good mother to do this for you daughter. I love it!!!! Who knows, you may become a Harley Mom after this trip! Love ya Mrs. Birdie! You too Leigh Ann!
Well Lord have mercy, I had a typo in the first post! 'your daughter' not 'you daughter', what will the Board of Ed think of me!!!! LOL
Kudos to your Mom! I'll keep my eyes open for something suitably trashy for next year for you. ; )
Precious!!!! Now that our agency services the local Raleigh HD dealership, I now know that motorcycle people, while not generally a pretty lot, are VERY nice and friendly people. I would have been surprised if Miss Birdie had a bad experience.
I can't wait to see this shirt! On another note, it sounds like your mom and my mom would be something together. My 67-yr-old, priss-pot, Grey Goose martini-drinking mother shocked me a few years ago when she told me before she died she wanted to do three things: 1. learn to play pool 2. learn to ride a motorcycle 3. Get a tattoo. I almost died!
Too funny. She is so sweet. Hey! Maybe she will want to come to Raleigh for the big Rally in September - I am doing all the ads and art for it.
Oh the adventures of Miss Birdie! I love how she wishes them success in Shallotte!!!
Miss Birdie is the best mom ever. So sweet to go mix with the heathens for you. You looked great as a biker chick btw!! However, I picture Steve driving and you in the sidecar with your Esther Williams' leg up. love.
Bless Ms. Birdie and her courageous soul! Grammy wouldn't have gone. Lol!
