Temperture at Lake Diaz was mid-60s with occasional sun...and no wind!
Perfect weather!
Judy and Don towed their Spartan utility trailer...the same one they took on their 7,000 mile honeymoon ride in June 2004.
"Some now...some later!"
;)
Wade trying his hand at Dennis's "washer toss" game he brought back from St. Louis. It was a great hit!
Somebody tell us who the champs were!!! I know Al and Wade gave Bland and Dennis a run for their money!!!
Cheryl and Dwight -- it takes a woman to finish the job!
Cheryl's kids aren't doing too badly settmg up for the night either!
I wonder how they all did with the rather assertive raccoons come night-fall???

Bland preparing good ole hot coffee
Ummmm...the good smells of camping!
Duelling cameras -- Anne and Don!
Gotcha too, Anne!!!!
They say "...smoke follows beauty..." but obviously some beauties don't appreciate the attention! tee hee!!!!!
The smokey culpret!
How'd Judy get to the water's edge...with smoke still in her eyes?
Bob(by), Chris and Dave...watching the washer toss games!
Girl talk -- Donna, Tori and Cheryl...
That's Stanley going to see how the fish'ns going. Jim's doing the fish'n.
Here's Jim's Heritage Springer and camping tent.
Deb is off to Illinois to visit girlfriends.
And while Jim is fishing...his bushy-tailed campsite visitor is cleaning out a huge pumpkin at Jim's campsite!!!
The raccoons take over at night!
Good weather for hot picnic coffee!
Meanwhile...Don is defending his trailer!
Bumps on a log?
No! Actually...they're first in line for when Wade gets the hamburgers grilled!
Wade...the cook!
Cheryl, Donna and Debby -- caught with the chips & dips!
Where'd my coffee go?...
Tori...with a guilty look...holding her cup of Bland's coffee!
Mom -- are there any biker chics my age coming???
Judy casually filing her nails...waiting for someone to ask a question about hers and Don's trailer.
"Don't worry about the coffee, Tori. Bland will get over it."
Cheryl and two of her kids...all enjoying the HOG celebration!
Joel casting an envious eye!
Bell pepers and onions for Bland's baked beans....
"Tee hee!"
Stanley and Barbara and Stan's new rides!
Is that Stan being affectionate with Barbara...or is he reaching for Stanley's cookie?
Cheryl bought a new digital camera...and Dwight's trying to figure out what he's got to trade to borrow it as the HOG club official Photographer! Too bad the situtation isn't reversed, huh, Dwight?
What smells better than a hot grill on a picnic?
What smells better -- grilling hamburgers or HOGS BREATH?????? YUCK!
Caught red-handed!
Now we see why Bland makes strong coffee!!!!
"BAD ANNE..." and in such cute and innocent company too. "RIGHT!"
Gene Hart riding their Harley...while his wife, Sharon, drives the motorhome!
Hey...mom...look at all those Harleys!!!!
Chris, Hans and Debby...all smiles with on-going fun of a successful 10th RAG celebration!
Is it safe sitting on that nearby log...while Billee is tossing washers?
Donna trying her hand at the washer toss. Pressure's on!
Rex, our new Road Captain, and his wife, Donna -- pretty good-looking couple, eh?
Our Director, Dennis, and Secretary/Treasurer, Debby, pretty content with the picnic happenings!
This pair, Anne and Judy, is the main reason we had the picnic way out in the countryside!
Yes we are!!!!!
By contrast...Chris and Dave are on their best behavior!
Jim's a pretty rough-looking dude...but one of the nicest and most helpful HOGs in the club!
I'm sworn to secrecy...after overhearing the topic being discussed here! PHEW!
Not Harleys...but still good look'n rides!
"...kissy...KISSY..."
Hans and Dwight
Donna and Billee...lacing up and winding down
after a nice day.
Nothing works, huh, Dwight? Cheryl's still got her camera!
Is that Dwight getting advice from Judy on how to get that camera away from Cheryl?
Can't beat a day like this!
Barbara and Stan are putting on some serious two-up miles with their new ride!
Don't see Stanley complaining either. He's happy too!
Welp...we got that done!
