We just rolled into Greensboro about 6pm...left Ross about 2 miles from his house on I-85 around 2:00. We stopped by to see our son in Charlotte and take him to eat. Left in the fog and 51 degrees and about and hour and a half later rode all day in the bright sun.
Great seeing everyone this past weekend.

Been home since about 2:15PM. It Was great to see some of the old gang and to meet a number of new folks. Even though it rained most of Saturday, was a good time to set around, get to know some folks and trade info-opinions-wild tales-jokes. I have be fortunate in that I have been able to attend a number of regional and 3 national get togethers. They never disappoint. Y'all are a great bunch of folks!!!

Good to see everyone, for the brief time we did on Friday night and a little on Saturday. Sorry we didn't get to spend more time with everyone on Saturday night but had to catch my son's game on the inernet. Personally, sitting on the porch swappin stories is almost as good as being out riding.
Tammy and I left around 9:00AM on Sunday and got to the house around 5:15PM. We hit heavy rain for about 40 miles or so but our gear held up good.

We got in at about 6 pm today and we both enjoyed ourselves. No, the rain definitely didn't dampen the spirits, we still had a great rally! DK was patient enough to give us a slow Bunny Ride with a stop to see Tallulah Gorge on Sunday and it turned out to be a great way to end the rally.
It was good to see everybody again!

Home safe, sound and feeling especially blessed. Not only for a totally enjoyable getaway with my wife and new and old friends, but also for God's hands of safety. Blew out a wheel bearing and didn't know it!

Left the motel after waiting until 1045 till the clerk showed up to check out took off expecting to take a little longer way home 134 instead of 90 well it turned out 225 I missed a turn some where along the way and by the time I figured it out I was about 50 miles out of my way the wrong way so 50 miles correcting the mistake and finally got home about 330pm had a great time met some new friends and got together with some old friends and a big thanks to Dick for the ride we took after the falls.
