Dear Doc,
Thank you for going above and beyond the call of duty for us. Fritz called me
last Friday. He seems to be a really good man who's looking out for Sonny's
best interest, but my fingers are still crossed and hope burns eternal.
This weekend we're going down to New York Myke's San Diego HD to interview
the great Chuck Zito. I promise next week I'll have some free time to
download my digital pictures and send some to you for the website.
I've put in a call to Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell's office regarding an
interview. I haven't heard back from them yet, but this documentary is taking
me to DC and I really hope he'll participate.
Iron Outlaws has taken on a life of its own thanks to you and the bikers who
have participated in the making of this film. We've got a long and wonderful
road ahead of us before this journey is finished.
So forgive me for being repetitiously redundant, but thanks again, Doc, for
your great support and cooperation.
PS.. if you're going to be at Daytona, Sturgis, or any of the events we're
covering, please let me know. I promise not to turn the cameras on you but
I'd like to at least shake your hand and say thanks in person.
Best regards,
Randy Wilson, Centaur Productions

Thanks, Doc, for the great words on your site.
Sailor and Edd were phenomenal. They told the stories that needed to be told
and shattered the stereotypes that needed to be shattered.
Every three patch so-called "notorious outlaw" club I've interviewed have
been nothing but courteous and cooperative. From the Top Hatters MC to the
Ghost Mountain Riders MC , these men have graciously welcomed us into their
homes and clubs.
We've been taking digital pictures along the way so I'll send you some for
your site.
By the way, Edd was quite animated. I got some wonderful road shots of him on
his classic Indian. Watching him handle those roads in his riding leathers
was reminiscent of the original Wild One. Marlon Brando would have been
envious.
Thank you for everything, Doc.

Dear Sir:
Centaur Productions is currently in production on the documentary film "Iron
Outlaws: The Myth of the American Biker." The premise of this documentary is
to explore the "mythology" of the outlaw biker. The film will document this
truly American phenomenon from the very first Harley rider to the Hollister
incident to the corporate structure of the modern-day club. What Ken Burns
did for the history of the Civil War and Baseball, we plan to do for the
outlaw biker.
The story of "Iron Outlaws" will be told through archive film footage,
interviews with bikers, authors, historians, law enforcement, sociologists,
and those associated with the biker lifestyle. The purpose of this film is
not to vilify or idolize the biker lifestyle, but to tell a true and
historical account of the men behind the myth.
Centaur Productions is a legitimate, award-winning documentary film company
based in Los Angeles.
We are interviewing the younger, modern-day bikers, but this story cannot be
told without the pioneers who were there at the very beginning. I was hoping
you could help the 'old timers' get in touch with us for an on-camera
interview discussing the origins, history and philosophy of clubs such as the
Booze Fighters and others.
We would interview the members anywhere and anytime it was convenient for
them.
The film will be distributed to foreign and domestic film festivals. PBS has
first right refusal to the project for domestic television.
Due to the enormity and the logistics of this film (on a public television
budget) we cannot pay for interviews, however, if anyone has something to
promote we would gladly give them a forum to speak their piece.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at Centaurrw@aol.com
Thank you for your time and trouble. I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
Randall Wilson, Centaur Productions
>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hey you old timers .... here's your chance to speak your piece ..... again time is always limited ... they must pick the parts that they decide most fits mostly a preconceived image of the American biker .... so ..... 2nd thought ... why waste your time?
Just Ole Doc Hemp's view on these interviews I quit giving years ago to all media period. The mistique is a mistique because the real bikers (long time riders) don't try to explain to cagers that think we are all crazy anyway! Many is the time I spent 30 minutes on the positive aspects of the biker world, only to see the 15 seconds of the typical biker response shown.

Dear Doc,
Thank you so much for your response and your help. I don't want to impose on
someone's privacy, so if you'd like to call Mr. Fowler first and see if he's
interested, please do. I'm sorry to hear you've been burnt by the media. It
gives us legitimate guys a harder time. What we're doing is a historical
perspective on the biker culture in America. As I said in my e-mail, it is a
truly American phenomenon. The premise of this film is not to paint all
bikers with the same brush, but to explore the, as I like to put it,
mythology.
Thank you again for your invaluable help. If you ever decide to give an
interview, please keep me in mind. I'll wait to call Edd after I hear from
you to make certain it's all right to contact him.
Thank you for everything.

Dear Doc,
You can never be too gregarious or too loquacious. That's what we're missing
in this generic, homogenized America of the twenty-first century. And that's
why I'm doing this documentary on bikers. To let men without a politically
correct agenda tell their own story. I know talk is cheap but I am not going
to do a sensational or tantalizing expose like the mainstream media. That's
why I got into documentary filmmaking.
Talked to Edd on Friday and he sounds like a great guy. I'm going to try and
get up there in January and interview him. If you have any information on the
rally in Sacramento on the 8th of January could you please pass it on. I'd
love to go up there and film the event.
Sailor sounds like an interesting guy. I do understand his reticence. A lot
of the bikers like the forum we are giving them, and some are mistrusting.
I understand. I believe and hope when this film comes out all of you in the
biker community will be pleased. As I said in my introductory Ietter, I will
have interviews with law enforcement officials, but everyone will have their
say and their chance at a fair and equitable rebuttal. No cheap sound bites
in this film.
Again, thank you for all your help. You'll definitely get a credit on the
film. If you can think of any other 'old timers' who would be interested in
participating, please think of us. You've been great. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Randall

The film crew has come and gone. If they are as good film makers as they are gentlemen, then this will be something to behold. Three very
professional, polite and funny people.
I cannot, of course, speak for them, but for myself and Diane; we had a real good time.
They got to my house about 9-9:30am and spent about 3 hours getting acquainted, looking at scrap books, transferring still photos to tape (while
recording all the stories, jokes and chit chat) and drinking coffee.
Brother Stanley showed up out of the blue and made a meaningful contribution with his story of going to jail for shooting a gun in a beer joint.
We put my ride on the front lawn and with a semi-circle of cameras, boom mikes, monitors, power cords and still flashes we did almost an hour of
filmed interview. They got an ear full of bikerisms, philosophy and random thoughts on world affairs as seen through a Harley windshield....LOL
They piled into their van, and with the cameramen hanging out of the back they filmed me and Diane tooling around be backroads on this ridge. We
led them to Woody's Bar (and grill) in Chico for chow and liquid refreshments and they filmed us all the way down Skyway, at the bar and in the bar.
Promptly at 6pm we bid adieu and Randy, Chris and Perry departed for Hollister to do a group ride with the Top Hatters MC on Saturday.
I suspect they will do for bikers what Ken Burns did for the Civil War and baseball.

Dear Doc & Becky,
I sent you kind folks an e-mail three weeks or so ago telling you how much I
enjoyed your website and about buying my first Harley. Thanks for
responding. I picked up my Heritage last week, have already put a few
hundred miles on "her". Absolute pure joy! I've given serious thought to
playing hooky from work and go riding, but everyone here at work knows about
my new bike, and it would be too obvious. But I look forward to going out
for a ride around the neighborhood or down to the beach every night when I
get home from work. My room mate also got his Fatboy last Fri. and is pretty
ecstatic about his too. When we are unable to go out and ride, we sit in the
garage, open a beer and stare at them. Usually rambling on and on about all
the custom parts and chrome we wish we had money left to buy.(A new Harley
just about breaks your bank these days). Anyway, looking forward to the road
and to meeting more kind people ("real people") like yourselves. Until next
time......

Once again, it was with great sadness that I must
inform you of the passing of a dear friend and HOG
member.
Carol Elder passed away early this morning after a
long illness. She was at home with her family.
At Carol's request there will be no services. She
will be cremated and her ashes scattered at a place
she had chosen.
Carol Elder was Dave Delaney's mother. Carol always
volunteered to drive the HOG members camping gear to
the Redwood Run every year.
Rest in Peace our dear friend.
We will certainly miss Carol but will not forget her.

like christmas eve and new years . We will be broke after this trip for
sure. We turned in the bikes today after a great great ride on the most
curvey roadsin the world and I am not kidding if you took Buckhorn and made
it one lane with drop off you can't imagine you would have it going forever
and pot holes and cows yaks people and bikes and you name it. It was the
most fantastic riding you can imagine and the views when it cleared you
can't believe. It was rustic to some degree but our pictures will show you
some of it for sure. I sure you guys would have enjoyed it, now Dandy Dave
I don't know it may have been to technical and the bikes were only 500's so
I don't know and the food well it was different. Anyway lots to tell you
guys and eat your hearts out.
Dandy I hope you are checking the office for me as I will have no practice
left, I havn't been gone for three weeks for 25 years or so. Oh well
We are going to dinner now and we flew with a couple of other guys to the
base of the Himalayans today after the ride and will veg out for two days
here. We flew just past
Everest today , it is huge and beautiful but put Shasta up at 27000 and you
ahve it in your own back yard.
The Bhutan Riding Fiend and his Bhutan Riding Mama are out of here and see

Doc, I was loooking for information on 32 Ford roadsters when I found your
site. It was strange but great to find out that I am not the only one that
thinks this way. I have been considered slightly off because I try to enjoy
the fun and adventure of many different areas of interest.
I was first married in June 1963, owned a 1954 customised Studebaker hardtop,
(no door window frame), love airplanes, have owned a Aeronca Chief, an
Aerocoupe, and a Mooney M-20A. Logged over 5000 hours, instructed, and any
other means to get flight time. I have flown J-3 s to Lockheed PV-2 s. I have
done some crop dusting, chartering and lorts of time just enjoying being
alive to be up there. I have owned 3 very old Harleys, a 125 Hummer, a 165
and a Super Ten 165. Later a BMW 600 that I road for 25 years. I now have a
Metric Cruiser, a Honda VT100C2 ACE.The closest thing to a Harley that I
could afford. I do ride it almost daily to work, when I am to be in the
office. I day job is being the Captain of a research vessel for the State of
Florida. This is a blast also at times. I've logged 3500 miles on the bike
since I picked it up in Nov. last year. I teach Blue Water Sailing at FSU and
own thre sail boats. My favorite is a 41' Morgan Out Islander. I've sailed to
the Bahamas and recently a trip to Cuba. I've been around the state of
Florida six times and it is all fun. I drive a rebuilt 240-D Mercedes I retro
fitted with a standard transmittion and just made a pet out of it. My toy car
is a replica 1928 Mercedes, great on cool days with the top down.
You comment that it is better to die living than to live dieing just about
sums up my phylosophy of life. I have a Masters in Geography and Cartography
and my fun projects are first in my life.
Thanks for confirming that I am not completely nuts.

What a great Web site. I was very concerned that Bev was making that long,
long trip from Redding. I prayed for her continually. When she called from
Palm Coast I was so happy she made it. I tried to talk her into coming to
the West Coast, so we
could visit.
Bev, her sister and brother, my two sisters and I grew up with the
Housers. Our
parents were good friends. We were thrilled when they moved to Beverly Hills
(Chicago). There were no other kids our ages so we had terrific times and
now great memories. Unfortu-nately we both lost sisters back in the early
60's. Bev and I have always been in contact no
matter where weve lived. In fact, when I got a free airline ticket (I got
bumped) so I called and
asked if she wanted me to visit. We had a great time in the Redding area.
She got home in
time for her birthday call, She was way above the averages she quoted.
It was great that you put her on your web site.

Danny and I arrived in Vancouver today at about 2.30p.m.
We went to Eureka after leaving your place. Had lunch in a deli and then
headed up the coast and thru the redwoods to Grant's Pass. Although cold
and foggy on the coast, not too much traffic, the bikes going well and
those great sweeping corners.
Hit the interstate after that. Stayed in Roseburg that night, then on to
Olympia where we met up with Don Hope and stayed at his daughter's
house. He's riding up tomorrow to meet up with Robbie and they go Banff
on Monday morning.
We are staying with relatives of Danny's till Monday morning when we
will also head out going down thru Montana to Yellowstone and on to
Sturgis. Plan to check out Little Big Horn, Cody etc too.
Thanks again for your incredible hospitality and we look forward to
trying to repay you both in New Zealand real soon.

Hey Dave,
I have a very good friend Dave Giles of a company called Ikon Enginering
based here in Auckland who coming to the USA with his train and carriages
and going to a train convention at either Vancouver or Seattle in August.
He speaks of a Tom Millar and a place called Train Mountain Oregon. Dave
makes parts and kit sets for trains just like yours and exports around the
world.
I have given him your web site re trains. I just wondered if you knew of
him.
Thanks for the Grave site address. We will call there on the way back to
LA
By the way, I have a committment from 12 people in our group (so far)
thats coming to your place.
I will phone you once we are all together at the warehouse in LA with a
final number.
Enclosed find a pix of some of us who are coming in front of our 40ft
container just before we locked it up.
You will spot Sally down in the front with the stars & stripes jacket on,
and my son in law Chris to the left of her and yours truely (the managing
director and master of ceremonies) directly behind her.
The second pix shows several of us packing our bikes onto the pallets and
just before we put the large HD cartons over then.
Getting closer......
See you soon ,
David
Below are a couple pics from our good friends from New Zealand , David & Sally Lane. It is of them and their group shipping their bikes over for their trip to Sturgis S.D. this year .... they will (hopefully all) spend a day or 2 at our place, ride trains, Harleys & party hardy on their way to the promised land! ... STURGIS!!!!! (Grin)
Here is one of the best and best written emails we (Dave (doc) and Becky) have ever received .. it is from our soul brothers David & Sally Lane after the Kiwi's stay at our place ... Look for all this and more pics shortly all on their own webpage here off our main Harley Page.
To our special friends David and Becky
Back in 1997, after our return to New Zealand after riding our Harley Davidson motorcycle to the 57th Sturgis Rally in South Dakota, Sally and I decided to search the Internet for any information on another interest of mine, Studebaker cars.
I soon located a fellow in the USA by the name of David Hemp who appeared to be a bundle of knowledge concerning these cars. Little did I ever envisage the outcome of meeting David and his wife Becky through the Internet would be 14 New Zealanders stopping over and being wined and dined in a manner fit for a king.
But lets go right back to 1997 when it was established that we both owned two of the only known 1930 President Eight Roadsters in existence. I've owned mine for 38 yrs and David has owned his for nearly 30 yrs. We have between us driven them over 500,000 miles collectively. We also both own Harley Davidsons and we are not afraid to ride like the wind and go to the edge. In fact this fellow even had a wacky sense of humour much like my own. It didn't take long before we were exchanging all sorts of trivia and it soon became apparent that we were in fact brothers of a kind.
He and Becky had been to the 57th Sturgis Rally as well. Even our interest in steam trains only further strengthened the bond between us. The coincidences continued to flow back and forth.
When David and Becky learnt of my plans to bring a 40ft container load of Harleys from New Zealand to the USA for the 60th Sturgis Rally in July 2000, they both jumped in and suggested that we should pay them a visit. That is, all of us were invited to come and stay and party for several days en route to Sturgis.
So on July 20th of this year the owners of 19 Harleys and one Triumph arrived in LA and unpacked our motorcycles to begin a tour of the USA.
Due to various commitments we all decided against group riding. Some of our party rode south while 14 of us rode north to Dave and Becky's home in Redding. David recommended that Lassen Park was a must-see en route from Reno and Truckee, and it was here that we caught up with "Sporty Dave" Danny, and Brian on the Triumph.
As we pulled into the driveway on that very hot day, I immediately spotted Dave chatting to the caterers of the lavish BBQ that was been prepared for us and their invited guests. That first meeting with my "other brother" was really neat.
Over the next few hours, Chris my son-in-law, (he loved those Cuban Cigars) and my daughter Vanessa (who wants Dave to adopt her as his daughter) arrived, as with Chris & Joan, (quick show me where the shops are), Gavin ( I need some fluffy dice to go with that Chevy Impala) and Su, (hold it Joan, I'm coming shopping too), Robbie and his ridding buddy Don, with gentleman Ken hooking in later in the afternoon.
Becky, the perfect hostess made us all feel welcome, inviting us into their home at once, for cool drinks and sandwiches. The construction of "Tent Town" was carried out with the professionalism of seasoned travellers on a subdivision just bordering the Redwood Forest, although six of us were lucky enough to have beds allocated inside
.
The swimming pool and the fully stocked cooler took a hammering for the rest of the day as we relaxed and told lots of lies about our five-day tour from LA.
During the afternoon David fired up his beloved steam train and as he slowly built up a good head of steam, the rest of their invited guests started arriving for the feast and the prospect of rides through the "Redwood Forest". The setting is impressive amongst very mature trees, a fully equipped railway station complete with popcorn machine and tables set-up with white tablecloths, and the homestead, set well back off the roadway, created a beautiful backdrop.
Dave spent the evening at the controls of his engine and there was never a time that the carriages were not full with friendly, happy faces all enjoying the experience of riding the BAD Railway over the meadows, through the Redwood Forest, and past Tent Town.
Somewhere during the night I met "Spendy Wendy" on the train and I took an instant liking to her Harley tee shirt. She wanted my "Downunder" shirt and was prepared to "flip flop". We were in love. With that we stripped off and did it right there and then on that crowded platform totally oblivious to the waiting passengers. Wendy, come down to New Zealand and I'll give it back to you, I promise.
About midnight, after most of the visitors had gone home, Dave asked us if we would like to see in his garage. There parked beside "THE" Studebaker President, the stunning Packard Phaeton and a Chevy Impala was a De Tomaso Pantera. Dave didn't need much prompting to fire it up and give us all a rather fiesty clip around his driveway. Here is one helluva fast motor car and competently driven. An experience that many of us will never forget. Rumour has it that 85 MPH in the driveway was commonplace.
But also later on there was the sight of Vanessa (alias Mary Poppins) riding a beautiful bicycle at a more sedate speed which really captured the endearing moments of the night.
Waking the next morning to a wonderful poolside breakfast with much reminiscing and laughter about the antics of the previous night soon set the tone for our second day's stay. The general consensus was to hell with Sturgis, let's just stay here for the next six weeks instead.
Dave and Becky's suggestion of a ride out to Lake Shasta hydro dam and a cafe for lunch soon had everyone saddled up and away except for Sporty Dave who just wanted time out to recuperate, clean his scoot, and goof around the pool for the day.
The ride out and back was spectacular and well away from the usual tourist traps even if our intrepid leader Dave did run out of petrol some 10 miles after he had us all fill up our bikes!
Later in that hot afternoon the lure of the swimming pool became very strong and it wasn't long before we were back at the "Hempstead" and cooling off.
During the afternoon Becky offered Gavin (complete with crew cut hair), an opportunity to drive the bright red Chevy Impala to fulfill his fantasy of taking a step back in time to the era of Elvis Presley.
Also I had the pleasure of being given the opportunity of driving Dave's Studebaker.
It was an overwhelming experience to drive a sister car that is only a few chassis numbers from my own. The realisation that I am the only person to have driven two of these most delectable rare roadsters was an honour that defies explanation. Thank you Dave, I will return the favour by bringing my Studebaker to the USA one day and we will go touring in them together. This will be history in the making.
Our poolside dinner that night was special as we laughed and joked the night away, even if some of us had difficulties in finding the "Mouse Tattoo".
The last morning of our short stay saw a much more sedate mood amongst us as we started to dismantle "Tent Town" and pack up to leave. Dave's story about his early days as an army dentist using "Dental Dynamite" to coax a fellow soldier to clean his teeth, helped to change the mood.
As always, all good things come to an end and it was hard to say our goodbyes to two beautiful people who opened up their home and their hearts to a bunch of Kiwis from Down Under. We will never forget your generosity, your willingness to share your toys, your love of laughter, and especially your "Billy Bobs".
On behalf of all who stayed, thank you Dave and Becky. We love you guys.
David & Sally.

I have a question, I saw a reallllly cool harley ad a few weeks ago. It had
the photo of a rider with the harley logo tattooed on his arm and the ad
read... "When was the last time you felt this passionately about something?"
I really want to see this ad again, did you all see it?? If yes, can you
tell me where you saw it or where I might find it...
weird question I know, but I have a bet going and I need that ad to win....

Dr. Hemp in person after a car racing weekend a couple of years ago. It was
on I-5 by Williams and I was headed south and he was headed north. We were
in a restaurant (Grandzella's) and just happened to go to the rest room about
the same time and he noticed my shirt..(Harley something..lol) and he
mentioned this site. We talked for some time and I was impressed with his
enthusiasm and humor. He has put a lifetime in riding and writing good
stories..... Well, good luck and enjoy.. this site seems to go on deeper and
deeper... really a lot to read..

Papa John,
Thanks for the email, and the kind words!

Thank you. Don't know where you live but it would be nice to run into you ( not crash) sometime. And my Cobra is a 429 Everett Morrison Replica. Sorry
to disappoint a new friend. But at least, it also has nitros. Although I've never used it. Why waste something on a combustion engine that I could combust in
my head. :>)
Enduros, eh? I used to ride them every weekend in the summer up in Minnesota back in 69/71. Had Ossa Pioneer (still have it) and Bultaco Matador. I
also have a 1972 350 Bultaco Alpina, a 1965 Bultaco Rickman Metisse, a 1974 Bultaco 360 Pursang, a 1974 Macio 450, a 1968 Harley Generator
Shovelhead, a 1999 100 HP Harley Buell, and a new 2000 FLHTCUI. And.....to few people's surprise, no money left!
Think I'll spend the next month on your site and sending it to all of my good friends. (The number of wouldn't even get a hyper chimp excited)
Cessna Aerobat? Humm. You need to get a really good ride in a Pitts S2B. With me, no less. :>) Nothing quite like the rush you get on take off of rolling
it inverted at about 50 feet, accelerating to about 160 mph and then pushing it outside and going over the top.
When you have nothing better to do, visit ( www.1stbooks.com ) and look up my novels under:
"The Rainbow Chase" by Thorne Stallings
"Gut Wrench" by Thorne Stallings
Then after you are through reading one (which I'd be happy to send you free and autographed), you can be my agent and get us a movie made. After that,
both of us will have enough money to build a web site as neat as yours. What the hell am I thinking! How could you possibly have time
for casual reading!!!
I can't die. To many wonderful people left to meet in and enjoy in this world. And yeah... I'll beat it all. In all seriousness........Thanks, pard.

Harley in the States for instance the Route 66. I don't yet drive a
Harley, but a very nice Honda Shadow VT 1100 (sorry). But I am intending
to buy a Heritage Softail. Is it still interesting to import a
motorcycle from the U.S.A. to Holland or is the price staying the same ?
I hope to hear from you and stay interesting in your site.

Just wanted to share with you how much I enjoyed your trips out to Sturgis. Have been there myself several times but never during bike week. Always went out for three weeks each
summer with my best girlfriend in my Chevy shortbed custom van. This year, my husband and I are traveling out in our Bounder motor home towing a S-10 pickup with his 98 FLSTS
Heritage Springer and possibly my 86 Sporster. Have a question. We want to miss the rally and head out after everyone has gone. We aren't much for the big crowds anymore. We are
still pondering over the weather. Thought about leaving the last two weeks of Aug and the first week of Sept. OR the last week of Aug and the first TWO weeks of Sept. After Sturgis we
want to head to Yellowstone and the Tetons. We'll camp at a permanent site and travel by bike in these areas. So, what do you suggest as far as the time span? Would appreciate any inf..
Will do most of our biking during the day and if need be, we can use the truck in the evenings, but we do want it to be warm enough so we can do our touring by bike. I realize it can get
cold in the mountains. If anyone can help us out in this matter, I would greatly appreciate it.
Just for a change, if you ever get a chance to go to Myrtle Beach for their Bike Week, do. We left early and headed south down through the Outer Banks and spent some time there and
then did the ferrys instead of going inland. Great trip. The last four years we have been going to Fl. for two to three weeks during X-mas or Thanksgiving instead of doing Daytona Bike
Week. Able to do much more touring and theres no crowds, just the locals. We pull up bike functions on the Internet and this enables us to do some poker runs and meet some real nice
people.
If you are ever in York, Pa. try to stop by the York Plant and do the tour. The museum is open on weekends but the tour through the plant is only during the week. We also have an Open
House for three days in Sept. that Harley puts on. This past year it was wonderful. Couldn't have asked for better weather. They sponsor poker runs and tours through the Amish
Country and of course, they have all the new bikes there at the Fair Ground where everything takes place. Its a good way to test drive a bike you are thinking about buying. It is Thur.-
Sat. On Friday evening thousands and thousands of bikes line up at the fair ground and do a grand ride through the streets of York. Quite a site.
Had better stop rambling. Again, enjoyed traveling out west with you guys through your stories and pictures.

Dave and Becky,
It has been a long time since I last wrote you, just wanted to catch you up
on things. First I guess it is no excuse, but one of the reasons I haven't
written you is that I am finishing my Masters Degree, and I think I have
taken off a year now for it, but no matter, It has just been time consuming.
Lara and I went to Sturgis this year, and thought often of you while we were
there, Here is a picture of me at Devils Tower, as well as one of us in
Downtown, there were so many things we saw and did this year. It really takes
several years to see all there is to see in Sturgis, huh? I went in ' 97, but
didn't experience it like I did this last year. Lara actually won second
runner up in the Ms. Sturgis pagent on Wednesday, but it got rounchy in the
finals, and she refused to roll around in the smut with the rest. I tell you
, I think those bugs get bigger each year, there was a couple of times that I
thought of you... when a big 'ole hard sheller hit me in the mouth. I thought
'Ole Doc could set up shop outside of the badlands and probably make a
fortune. I stripped the threads for my windshield two days before leaving to
South Dakota. While we are hoping to go back this year, we are in the process
of building a new home, and that tends to drain the play funds, so we are
just going to see how it goes. I know we are going to the run for the wall in
D.C., but I am sure that is a little extreme for you to come from Redding to
D.C. talk about your all time sore-butt club. Anyway, As always, I enjoyed
your site, and the many updates that you have made since my last visit. you
and Becky are a credit to yourselves for the good work that you do here, and
in your lives.
It was good talking with you again, 'ole friend,
God Bless Ya'lll and
Keep Ya'll Safe.
