Debbie and I are heading home tomorrow AM, Lord willing. We put 1203 miles on the motorcycles, mostly the Indian.

We have had a wonderful trip, hanging out around the edges with y’all! Got to see guys I know and meet some new friends! What a great bunch! The only guy I didn’t get to talk
to was Jim Hobbs, I think I saw him duck around back when I walked up to his room.......

Debbie and I rode every direction and there was not a disappointment to be had. Just the best time!

There is nothing like zooming down 28 in 4 and 5th laying it into the curves! Too much fun.

We talked a bit. I mentioned that I had memorized the curve that Panther Creek Rd. is on so I wouldn't pass it when I visited, but as often happens, whenever I thought of visiting, you were at the motel. :) I also admired your Indian and commented on the styling cues that remind us of the old ones.

I’m sorry Jim, I guess it seemed too brief, I usually like to retell all my triple stories at least once and share half of my life experiences, then I feel like we got to chat. I AM a bit chatty.

Really, I didn’t get to really hear what’s new with you. Hopefully we’ll catch up before next year.

Safe travels to you and Debbie, Joe. Was good to see you and sorry I couldn’t play guitar with you and RD Charlie due to the cut on my left index finger. I saw you gave ride privileges on your H1 and H2 to several friends. I liked your big Indian too especially the colors and the features. Be safe and hope to see y’all again soon.
