I found this clearing out some very old FReepmails. The original link doesn't really go anywhere any more.

But the best post of that thread was this one of a Marine saluting as rolling thunder drove by.

Rolling Thunder is amazing. We saw them in Washington DC on Veteran’s Day a few years ago. I didn’t know they were going to be there. Their sheer numbers were amazing. And loud!

I participated in Rolling Thunder 9 years in a row. Rode from Boston to DC, went to the pig roast at Fort Washington Harley Davidson, Did the Run To The Wall, and rode home again.

Those were the days.

Not sure why they were there, but it sure was a great event.

Sounds like a great time.

I would have loved to have been able to do something like that.

Alas, short of a miracle, those days are over.

How’d you make out with the weather yesterday?

We got a few inches of snow/sleet and essentially no icing, thank God.

Three inches of slush, which is frozen solid today.
YUCK.
