Biker Toy Ride






Well as usual your weekend is always busier then we plan it to be during the week. as most of you know we live very close to the Fairgrounds well.....that leads to a full calendar in the Hillman household. This Sundat was the ABATE Biker Toy Ride for Toys For Tots. We thought it would be fun to sit on the corner and watch all the bikes parade down 15th. We knew there were a LOT of bikes since the fairgrounds parking lot was FULL! Come to find out it took over an hour for all the bikes to parade out of the fairgrounds, later we found out that there were over 20,000 bikes! YES! I said 20,000, TWENTY THOUSAND! These bikes were all shapes and sizes, loud roaring Harleys, colorful miniatures, ones with 3 wheels, even a bike with a VW Bug shell and scooters too. Butch has decided that him and Harry will participate on his scooter next year. He wants to get a sidecar for Harry to ride with him on his scooter. I think Harry will have him in the sidecar.

Harry now thinks we have a parade every day. We get in the car and he asks "We got o Parade?" I guess that is better then him thinking the Bumble Bees from the fair are still behind the QuikTrip Center for him to ride.

Merry Christmas!
