Red1 Posted August 2, 2013 Share #14 Posted August 2, 2013 We also got back home yesterday - nice ride, no issues. And I'll echo my thanks, gratitude and appreciation for all the folks that worked to set this up. Velma and I had an excellent time. Truly a great bunch of folks - I wish we could have had time to visit with everyone. Sorry we didn't get a chance to see Rick & Marilyn again before we left - see you at the PIP? Safe travels to everyone who still has to go home, don't have too much fun without us. vaya con dios, amigos y amigas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved our first time too - great to reconnect with friend made at Freebird's Maintenance Day, and great to make new friends too. We even beat the rain home last night (much better than the rain on the way to Galena!) Hope to catch up with everyone again!!

Carbon_One Posted August 3, 2013 Share #20 Posted August 3, 2013 We got home about 6pm tonight as well. After spending the night near Gary Indiana we woke up to some heavy rain. So waited it out till about 10:30 when it quit and hit the road, Still ran into some light rain near the Michigan state line but once we headed east on the old Chicago road / US 12 we out ran it. Cloudy and cool but dry the rest of the way home. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
