The "Ride To The Wall"


stopped in my town this morning.

Actually they arrived last night. One of the local VFW Posts provided dinner for the Vets, who then spent the night and stopped by our Veteran's Memorial Park this morning before heading toward Midland, Texas, their next stop.





















There were over 500 motorcycles on the ride this year, plus a number of "trikes" and "four-wheelers", as the Viet Nam Veterans made their annual cross-country trip from California to Washington, D.C., where they will observe Memorial Day ceremonies at the Viet Nam War Memorial.

I spent some time at the park, visiting, shaking hands and getting hugs. Uplifting!
