The attendance of a large group of veterans from the Crescent Wood Senior Facility made this Bike Day at Legion # 359 a very special one. We kinda sweated out the weather, and although there were a few sprinkles, the weather was pretty good!! We had the honor and privilege of chatting with a former Air Force Captain…a fighter pilot who served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam…!!! He had flown just about every fighter that came along, including super sonic jets!!!! A real hero in my eyes….!!! As always, the food was very tasty, good band, 50/50, but because of the threatening weather, not many bikes in the lot today..!! Ran into old friends, AND, made a few new ones too!!! Hey, thank a Vet today, and GOD BLESS AMERICA…!!!
Miserable George
There had been breakfast and a poker run , and now, everyone was back…the first of many live bands was wailing away, some folks were dancing, many others were eating and/or checking out the vendors and games that were set up in the back yard area, while others just enjoyed adult beverages inside and out back. Harry’s “Grease Pit” was hopping all day long serving some super delicious food…I had some…it was fabulous!!! All this was for the benefit of Tanner Fallon who had contracted Cystic Fibrosis about 10 years ago, and this was the 10th Tanner Jam for his benefit. There was also an auction for many various items…all for Tanner’s benefit. The poker run winner donated back his entire winnings…not certain how much exactly, but it was a WAD!!! It gives ya a pretty warm feeling when you witness all the kindness and generosity that people exhibit in a case like this. May GOD bless Tanner with good health…your prayers would help as well. Thanks to everyone who helped throughout the day, especially Harry, Deb, and their whole crew.
