Had a great time! As always, Lewis (Dragonrider) put on a great meet (fundraiser) for St. Jude's. We had some great rides thru the mountains of Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee on Thursday. Rode the Tail of the Dragon (some did it twice). We had a great meal at FATZ restaurant on Wednesday and Friday. We had an awesome banquet on Friday (lunchtime) along with a 50-50 drawing, raffles and auctions. I think we did an awesome job of raising some funds, considering it was a low turnout.

Understand that jobs got in the way for some, some had NO jobs (no funds) and the weather forecast was pretty dismal. Fortunately for most of us, the rain held off until Saturday. Don and I left Saturday morning, along with Barrycuda and the Wolfe's. Not sure who else left. We made it home with virtually no rain and considered ourselves very lucky.

Thanks again Lewis for a great meet. Will see you when you get the ride set up to go to St. Jude's to present our donation. I think we got enough for a brick or maybe even a plaque. Hope we have a good turnout for that.

Thanks to all who helped raise this money, some from our Meet n Eat in May, St. Jude auctions on VentureRider, donations of items for raffles and auctions, the 2013 International Committee who also donated money raised from auctions and all who just donated money. We applaud you and appreciate every penny raised.

Thanks again

Great pics Patti!

 

Turnout may have been a bit lower than in past years, but I like those a bit better as there is more time to visit with folks as there aren't so many folks that you feel you need to talk to. BTW why was Skid being scolded by Annie in the one pic lmao :hihi:

It started with Dano climbing onto the wall behind me and I scolded him like a momma to a child and he went along with it. Then Skid climbed up there too and we carried on with the joke for Patti to take the photo

Linda and I were only there on Friday afternoon and Saturday thru Dillard House, but we had a great time, even though we caged it. The weather for while we were there was actually better than we expected, even though it was probably record low temps.

It was good to see some old friends and meet some new ones. I particularly enjoyed meeting Cowpuc and Cheryl. They are very interesting and truly enjoying life on the road. I think they got a taste of what a crazy bunch we are and will fit right in.

I hope everyone made it home ok.

Kenny, it was great seeing you and Beth, and I was really surprised you guys showed up knowing Beth was still hurting from her accident. She is one tuff lady. Thanks for support us and look forward to seeing you guys again.
