Posted: 07/24/2016 - by Charlie Narmi

Unfortunately the day started with fatally near Glenwood, but double rainbow at day's end in Shenandoah.

How about bullet points instead of narrative?

Tabor did a great job with their public park, though Joe lamented being thrown out at home plate twice(!) in a HS game at the ball diamond in 1973. So sad.

Hot & hilly, but fun. In Shenandoah Rita Gibson worked tending bar at the Elks besides hosting us. Thanks!  So we ate and had refreshments there.

We had a nice chat with newly retired Fr. Ken Gross--a great man & wonderful minister. Made our day.

7am - who's ready to ride?!?

At Little Waite Lanes, Kathleen punked 7 year old shirtless Mikey in outdoor trailer bowling. Matt was the pin setup man. Then Pat & Joe fleeced Mikey & Matt at bags. It's more wholesome than inferred, really.
