If Stonewall sets up the ride to the Wounded Warrior Home I will go there instead of the Museum.

Did anyone besides me see a less than perfect weather forcast for this weekend. Not that it matters to me, but my lovely wife might be less perky if the weather isn't amazing????

Hey all, I'm about 99% sure this weekend is out for me. :( That makes me very sad, because I was looking forward to seeing everyone and catching up with some specific people in particular (Sparky, Ghost Rider, Stonewall, Chickie, etc.) and meeting lots of new people! But, one of my grandma's is currently in the ICU on a ventilator - so I may need to head home on emergency leave. Just kind of in a holding pattern right now. Love to you all and please be safe in your travels. Will definitely see you in May!

Tigger - I'll be praying for your grandma! Does anyone mind if I bring my daughter with me this weekend? Dad is still in the hospital (5 weeks and counting as of today) and Mom is still up there with him. He's doing really well finally, so we finally feel like we can breathe.

Chickie, I think that would be fine. She is a well behaved girl as I remember. She may be bored out of her mind but if that's not a problem, bring her. She will get to meet more of the group that way. If she asks what FNG means she will get the clean version. Very good news about your dad. Tell your mom & dad I said hello. It's birthday time for mom also isn't it? Tigger, I would love to see you and catch up but I think you are making the right decision. I had 3 grandmas and miss them all. I hope she fools everybody and hangs around for a few more years as long as it can be a quality life.
SheWolf, Are you going to be able to make it?
Harley RG, The forecast is not great but 20% chance of rain means 80% chance of no rain. We will be going either way unless it is heavy rain in which case we will see who has a cage or can get one quickly. If your wife would feel better in the car and you want to follow us over you can do that. We won't talk about you very much.
 I do understand about her feelings however on the actual Run For The Wall ride we do ride in the rain. That is a chance we all take riding 2 or 3 wheels. My rain gear is in one of 3 places, in the saddlebag, on my body or drying in the garage or hotel after a wet ride. It goes wherever the bike goes regardless of the forecast.IS IT SATURDAY YET? Ride safe and I'll see everyone that can make it on Saturday.

Thanks Ghost Rider. I'll see you in Rancho. Well, my stepmom said my grandma had a scare today, but her, my uncle and my mom all report that she was sitting up in a chair later and very coherent (clearly off the ventilator for that!). So, fingers crossed we keep progressing and hopefully get out of ICU tomorrow. All the women in the family on both sides are tough! Thanks for all the
 .

Tigger, Prayers for your grandma and will miss you but you do what needs to be done.
Chickie, Hope your dad continues to improve and can get home soon. Raven, wish you and Sapper could make it to Shreveport. Will miss you guys there and all the pictures you take that get on facebook so fast. Haven't learned how to do that yet. Ghost Rider, John Anderson has an ear problem that causes him to get dizzy frequently and isn't likely to be able to ride his bike this weekend so he and Shirley probably will not make the trip over. KSCasper was in town today and we rode over to Meridian to escort Cherry Boy back to Rags and Gofurs house Ready to go and waiting on Saturday. |
