Can you share 'em w/ us?

I have just the one, of my Dad on a military scooter at the end of the war - none of the Indians and Harleys he used to ride.

I did get a more recent one, of him standing next to a restored Indian Chief like one he used to ride. I took it at the Hanford Antique Bike Show a couple of years before he died.

I'll see what I can do Bill. I started a photo album on webshots that I will eventually be able to link ya to. ya know how it goes when ya get a project started and have to get distracted by payin bills and checkin off the "honey do" list.

In the meantime here's a pic of Uncle Dick on his 36' I think it's a 61" ohv. I got another one of him blastin through teh water on it at Sylvan Beach.. heard he rode it across the lock gates on the barge canal too. He was the lunatic of the family in his day. Me I was a barstool diver..lol

Cool pic! Looking forward to seeing the rest.

I may not have any of my Dad, but I'm doing my best to make sure future generations have plenty of me and my riding buddies - I take LOTS of pictures!
