5-21-2011 Meet and Greet at Starkville, MS (Pics)

[AlabamaNomadRider]

Had a good ride over to starkville, MS for a meet and greet at The Little Dooey which is a bar-b-que restaurant. I got there about 12:15 PM after riding since 7:22 AM and Jim Hardin had been in Starkville since about 11:00 AM. He was at the restaurant when I arrived. We talked about the ride and the Nomads. Waited until 12:45 PM and Randy May (Fatrat45) and his riding friends from Tuscaloosa, AL showed up. We chatted a bit and then went in for some great food. Stayed until 2:30 PM or at least Jim and I did then Jim said he needed to go and I told him I needed to do the same. Jim was facing a 132 mile ride home and I was looking at 220. The guys from Tuscaloosa were only looking at about 90 miles. They were still in the restaurant when Jim and I mounted our steads and headed our separate ways. It was an enjoyable ride and meet and greet. Glad I finally got to meet Jim. Corrected the date in subject line and departure time for Jim and myself. Sorry about the errors. I didn't realize just how much the trip took out of me.
