Hi.. I took 269 pix beween the rally & then following at the Harley Davidson at 145th/Lorrain afterward for lunch. Here are a couple pix.. Will maybe post more tomorrow/later.. Lowest attendance I can recall. Guess the weather was a factor. My pups did NOT like the 21 gun salute following the reading of the dead from Ohio in the war.

He surely makes the most of life... He does more at 83 than most half his age. Did you see Dave/Anne? anyone else from the NE Ohio groups? I didn’t see anyone I knew
