Best was a tireless and faithful servant throughout the run. Thanks brother, "He whom would lead must learn to follow, he who would be king must learn to serve."

Rarly and I had enough fun on our scoots for it to have been illegal! We pushed our rides to the limit through the gorgeous turns of Indiana Hwy 62.

Here's a picture of a tree that was at the campsite! The heart sure does indicate the love that was flowing there! Who knew that we would pick a campsite with a tree like that? Was that a God thing or what?

Damn, you were on my home turf. Used to ride 62 almost every weekend. Glad you had a fun ride. Wish I could have met you all and rode along.

I know Kym, what an amazing man-every bit the gentleman and scholar, as humble as they come and a true friend.

Same here. ...I am home. Was at home with my other family all weekend but now home to the address that is listed on my lic.


Home, wife kissed, plants watered, and now for a shower and some sleep.
Will be around tomorrow after some rest from the drive.

Thanks Raarly for having me read this at the campsite. It still speaks to me today.

Experiences...

I have no idea how to put things into words. The experiences and friendship shared, the weather, the camp site, the rides, the fellowship, the laughing, a few watery eyes...

I have not had such a collection of days in a row as wonderful as this past weekend since ... I can't remember. Have had a day or two but I can't remember such a full weekend of wonderful feelings. From Friday night when Rarly showed up right on through till Bill and I left the campground on Monday afternoon and then a 900 plus mile drive home to think on it all. With each person that showed up, the joy just increased all the more. Just can't find the words that would tell how wonderful it was.
