All,
I have received *DEFINITE, ABSOLUTE, HEARTFELT Managerial blessing* from my boss for me to take vacation in order to attend this ride, should it transpire.
As a matter of fact, she was so moved by my email asking permission to attend this possible *tentative* event, that she is mailing the info I provided her to friends who own a very well-known biker bar here in Cedar Rapids to promote this PGR group. She had no idea a group like the Westboro Baptist church even existed, and that people could act that way. Nor, did she know the great group PGR existed.
She truly supports this group's efforts, and she sends her personal condolenses to the family of Sgt. Sesker and all of the others who have lost loved ones in the name of Freedom.
I'm "IN" if this mission goes. And, I will carry the support of many others with me.

I think I should quit my job and get one where you work. The company that I work for will not get involved with "cause's".
(I am looking for a new job, I can't contiue to work for a company that has this type of view on our armed forces.) |

Our prayers and condolences to Daniel's family. I just returned (last Tuesday) from my third mobilization. I have not returned to work yet and would be honored to attend this mission (which will be my first). I live in the Ankeny area. If there are other members heading North from the Des Moines area, it would be my pleasure to ride with you. Please contact me at MEJ3331@Yahoo.com or 515-720-2079.
Stay safe!

I talked to my borther in law there will be A LOT of police presence at the funeral, due to the fact theat Danny was a police officer and like my brother in law most a lot of his friends are also. His dad was the former police cheif in Ogden when I was little. I let him know of the possibility of protesters and they are all prepared. And they wanted me to thank you all for the heads up. The burial is family only so hopefully those idiots will let them be.

I would interested in joining up with anyone leaving from the Kansas City area. I will be coming up from Gardner, Kansas.
My Garmin GPS says it's 260 miles from my house to Ogden (4:22 riding time), so I'm thinking about a 3:30am departure time from my place and around 4:15am to 4:30am departure from the northern part of KC metro area - all of this based on an 8:00am staging somewhere in the general vicinity of Ogden.
With this in mind, anyone wanna get together??
