Year 2 of the PGR riding around GGNC making noise and flying our 3x5's while the Boy Scouts place flags on all the graves! The Boy Scouts LOVED it! So did we!! Lots of waving, ^5's and general great will!!! Thank you all for what you do! Thanks to all that rode for this honor! We had 10 scoots, with 3 2-ups and our Debbi and Steve truck and they had many flags flying!! Thank you!

We had 7 ALR District 13 riders, Mike and Suzy A., Gary and Sandy R., Don N. RC for the event, Slick John and the Cranky dude!! Almost 1/2 of the group! Thank you for being there!

Don Newton has been the organizer for both! Thank you! The mission was on Saturday 05/29/10 and the 2500 Boy Scouts placed > 112K flags for our fallen heroes.



Did you know for us eye challenged folks... that with a quick browse, a 9 looks like a 3.... Here I sit in 05/23..... aaaallllllllllll alone... sigh. Called daughter and said check my messages for something on the 23 with GGNC.... she said nada, but there's one for the 29th..... %&!(#%&#_($&%! GBG It was a great ride, 280 is very pretty, back home... sigh.


The 29th and I have company!!! GBG Sweet Ruby in front... Steve and Debbi's pickup and he had a 4x4 across the back and mounted a lot of flags, and it looked great! Great on Ya both! Steve mounted them during Don's say once...


Front of the line....


Some folks yakking....


Don N. giving us his say once..


We made it, and had a "blast" to say the least all around GGNC and EVERYONE loved it!!!


Nice line of scoots, of course, the prettiest is front!


Flags were the order of the day!



I've only seen the big flag NOT at 1/2 mast a few times..... sigh.....



A great day and believe it or not, the weather was fantastic, I"ve not been to GGNC in any better conditions and normally MUCH worse. Don N. must have "connections"! A very enjoyable event and I thank the Boy Scouts for what they do and for asking us to join them, an honor and pleasure, thank you!
