WOW - What a day!
TN PGR Handed over Dreamcatcher's Daughter and her unit to AL PGR on schedule and without a snag. THANK YOU TN PGR for entrusting them to our care.
Three bikes, 4 riders escorted the TN National Guard Unit through Alabama and Mississippi to their temporary location in Merdian, MS. Nothing could ever hold a candle to the fellowship with our warriors at the rest stops, over lunch and at the Mississippi Armory! Each one of you ARE our HEROES! Our ride and the fellowship with all today was more than anyone could ask for - including the weather!
I just arrived home after rolling just over 600 miles. Currently awaiting on Stitch, Gator and Norm to post their safe arrival home from their 600++ mile run today. Kudos to each one of you!
Thanks all for a great day and to our Warriors : God Speed. We will await your return flying Ole Glory high & proud for you in your absence |

I agree with HighSalute, what a ride! We couldn't have asked for anything better - weather was great, camaraderie was great and best of all, we were there to support our soldiers off on their next mission! It was a pure joy to look each soldier in the eye, shake their hand and tell them THANK YOU for their service.
Thanks to everyone for another very successful run. May God keep them safe and and look over them while they are away!

It would be an honor to escort these troops back home! Lets work on organizing a huge return - MS, AL and TN combined!
Stitch and I are in...provided I'm in town. Who knows, we might even get Stitch to ride her own bike by then! :P
Oh, and just for the record HighSalute....your leading and don't dare make a wrong turn! ;) (inside joke) |
