Chuck at the Eastern Rally - What a smile!

Folks, I could not help but go back and find some of my pics from the Eastern Rally....If you never met Chuck, here is that great smile.


Here's Chuck right in the middle of the group....surrounded by friends.



Reflections.....


Don't really know why I took this...thought it looked cool....and it did...and so is he



And one that I am sure all in it will cherish even more now......Check out that big ole black cowboy hat with the big ole smile under it...



Sorry for the size, but these warrant the size.....

If others have some similar from the East and Central, I would love to see them...

Still sad and for many days to come :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

Thanks for sharing Todd, they're really nice and even more special now. I checked my pics from Elkins and didn't have any of Chuck.

Chuck at the Eastern Rally - What a smile!

I have been sitting here and reading through Chuck's trip blogs this evening. I still can't get over the fact that he is no longer on this earth with us.
Here is a pic of Chuck I took of him on Saturday of the Eastern Rally.



This is one Chuck asked me to take with his camera Friday night.

Tammy reminded me of the first stop we made on the Memory Ride. Chuck bought praleens (sp?) and he was handing them out. Chuck told Tammy they were "sweets for the sweetest".

Man, as I go through all the pictures on here and a couple blogs, my eyes well up. I only had the one weekend to meet him and chat, but what an impact he made.

Thanks for sharing the pics and memories everyone. It all helps the healing process.
By the way, what does Chuck's forum name "txcwdancer" stand for? I assume it's something about Texas? Thanks guys.

Thanks for the pics everyone.

Todd, I know why you took that pic of the back of Chuck's vest. It does look cool doesn't it? The VROC and TexasVROC patches are cool. I have a vest with those same patches.

Thanks guys for sharing those great pictures.

Todd would it be possible to put names to all the faces in that last group shot? i reconize some of the faces i think but not many, it would be nice to put a face to the name.
