Memorial Day Weekend Day 1

May 24, 2013
Colorado USA

We started the day with some good ol' American fun (target practice) and lunch at the A&W on the way home. But, in the afternoon we rolled out on The Ride to pay our respects at the Veterans Plaza where the traveling Vietnam Veterans Wall is set tp for the duration of the weekend. We spoke with assorted Veterans as we strolled. We stopped and paid our respects to the hero-brother of a friend, the hero-friend and brother-in-arms of a friend and a north Texas hero. We spoke with Colonel McPherson in the shadow of his restored Vietnam-era UH-1 Huey. We chatted with Charley Barnes of K99 Radio/J4J/Sleigh Rider fame and made off with some J4J gimme-shirts (thanks CB). We made our way roundabout way home about dusk.
