I liked watching all the Harleys getting up to the Pentagon for Rolling Thunder. I didn't do it this
year, but rode by just to see the excitement while on my way to a Radio Control airplane 'fly in'.
That was pretty cool also.



We took a lady and her hubby from Judy's club out for a retirement
boat ride and came home for ribs.
We did pause for a moment at my neighbors house to render honors to
the national ensign and marine corps flag that he has flown every day,
as long as I can remember
His dad was a decorated fighter pilot in Korea now deceased.

A actually do that every time I pass tho.


Good on ya! My wife puts out a couple dozen flags along the sidewalk, which I think is pretty cool.
My younger daughter has put in her dibs on next year's Rolling Thunder. Hopefully the bike will be
running then!
