BIG EVENT; RIDE FOR ROSWELL



BOB, ANNALYNN AND DAVID
ANNALYNN MADE THE T-SHIRTS!



Our week went very fast!  Cassie was still here until Friday, Bob had a Dr's appointment and the Doc was a no show, so he rescheduled and we helped our camping secretary with his first newsletter.   We packed the motor home for our trip to Univ. of Buffalo for the RIDE FOR ROSWELL and we left on Thursday.  After set up, we went to the gym to register.

LARRY'S FIRST RIDE FOR ROSWELL






There is so much more to the story.  But everyone had a great time.  The weather was perfect!   I would hope that Roswell made a couple million in donations so research can continue in our neighborhood. 


David shot 1600 photos; Bob shot around 500.  So many to choose from for Blogging.   There had to be about 15-25 photographers so Roswell will have plenty of photos to pick from for their advertising. 

That's it for this week.  I'm bushed!  I have two sore knees from walking so much.  I took my bike to ride to and from events (not in events) and the new knee wouldn't go around with the peddles - shots of pain!  I was bummed as I had the bike all polished up and pretty.

Hope you have a good week.
