This is Barb Foree giving praise because Jack made it here through the California traffic. Actually, I was trying to get a good picture of Colleen, jest's lovely wife, and our hostess of the day. Barb just had to stick her hand up (BG). These pictures are NOT in order, and were taken with 2 different cameras. Just keep scrolling and you'll get them all eventually. Don't forget you can click on them to make them larger if you want.
We arrived by cars, trucks, a bicycle, motorcycles, and even a Harley! Now's the time to thank Jest for opening up his house and grounds to us, to tc for the planning and food preparation, for Don VSP for hauling around and giving a tour of the Bay Area to our Guests of Honor, Howard and Rosie from New Zealand! This took place on 10/7/06. A good time was had by all!
Tiny, Barb, Jack, John(his back) Brian, Jest, and Howard (nitelite). Jest has had some health issues, and wasn't able to eat or drink much, but he's all fine now and on the road to recovery! We all give our hearty thanks to him for opening up his lovely home to a bunch of scruffy VROC people! Well, at least the guys are sort of scruffy, the ladies are just fine!
Barb and Rosie. Rose just spent 18 hours in an airplane, then spent an evening on the town with Don VSP and Howard, then a LONG trip to Stockton and back for more City sights! And she still looks GREAT! Amazing ladies they have in New Zealand! Of course, Barb always looks good.............no surprises there.
The parking lot in jest's drive way. I think it turned out about half and half, bikes and 4 wheelers. I brought the truck so I could take home the stock parts from the Wing I bought from jest. It would have been perfect weather for a ride down, but worked well since I brought Pat down and dropped her off to visit her mother while we were having fun!
The traffic on 19th street is light and fast this morning. This goes near Golden Gate Park and the University District, but it's still early and the crowds aren't out yet. Night Lite and Brian have been real good about keeping me in their rear view mirrow! They know how lost I can get. I'm familiar with this area though, so it wasn't bad getting there.
