It was really great to meet Neil’s bride Loretta and get to know them better today.
Good ride, good fellowship, good food, don’t get much better this side of heaven.

Just a few quick photos.

Blessings,

Don

Last stop was to O’Leander Cafe for an early dinner with the Two Lane Road Riders ride group. Great bunch of guys and gals.

We mad it up to the Veterans park with time to spare, but as it turns out, lots and lots of people got there early too.  Fortunately we found an overflow parking lot within walking distance, and hoofed it over. The motorcycle community was very well represented as you will see from the photos.  We received a great history of all of the armed forces branches, and we heard prayers from a military chaplain both at the start, and at the end. I know I couldn’t have asked for more.  Anyway, I took lots of photos, so there is lots to see here. As usual, click any photo for a larger one.  Enjoy!  Oh, yes, and the whole park was decked out in American flags, small flags, medium flags and large flags.  People holding flags, flags along the walk ways, and flags on the poles.  It was wonderful!

So we showed up at the Whataburger near 183 and 1431 with everyone from our New Life Riders, but it turns out the TMRA group met at the Whataburger at 1431 and Parmer. So, we missed them.  Fortunately each group rode over to the park, and we saw them there.  Next stop the park!

Rather than go on a ride this morning, we decided to go to the annual Precision Camera Photo Expo that was happening today. We zoomed over to the show location and zoomed around the exhibitors for a couple of hours, including an hour spent in the Sony DSLR workshop. Very informative. Now I can finally start taking pictures. There were lots of demos of new equipment, and cameras to buy if you wanted to. I bought a travel case for mine. Enjoy!
