You know I have many concerns about the lunches. Will food be good, will the service be good, will anyone show up. I told them 60 to 70 and I think 66 came to lunch today. Thank you for coming I hope you had a good time.[attachment=45]IMG_0618.JPG[/attachment]Larry #3 was first to arrive of three that rode motorcycles, Jim G. from Shawnee, Larry III from Valley Falls, KS and Bob S. from Bashor. Larry said it was 17 degrees when he left home. Burrrr[attachment=6]IMG_1545.JPG[/attachment] But once he got inside it didn't take long for him to warm up.[attachment=43]IMG_0620.JPG[/attachment]Bob got my award for the neatest Christmas ornament.

Since Mick WAS at the other end of the table and had PLENTY of food, he generously gave George a WING [attachment=19]IMG_0647.JPG[/attachment]My favorite outlaw band the ROMITOS made it in from way up north[attachment=18]IMG_0648.JPG[/attachment][attachment=17]IMG_0649.JPG[/attachment][attachment=16]IMG_0650.JPG[/attachment]I would be remissed if I didn't congratulate Slina and Leland on being married SIXY-ONE years. That is a wonderful thing and I want to wish them many many more years of good health and happiness.[attachment=15]IMG_0651.JPG[/attachment] [attachment=14]IMG_0652.JPG[/attachment]I am sure Wanda and Bob will have some pictures to add.

Oh I have a post script.
Everytime I turn around I find someone else who is heading to south Texas. (Today it was Bob, Wanda, Leland, Slina, Lee and Verna. We must be up to near 30 now ) But I digress. I sent the picture above of Larry arriving all bundled up to Doug E. who is already in South Texas and who refuses to ride when it is below 60 and I immediately got this picture in return
