That Weekend Sawyer rode in, won the chainsaw in finest fashion (with some fine coaching even if I have to say so myself  :)),  then drove off in the settling sun   ;D.  A fine figure of a man  ;).

Jon, you are rascal!

Well, home safe and sound and full of pig.  I really thought long and hard about going since I would be by myself for the first time.  Jane's little sister, Joyce and her husband Tim said they would like to go as they had heard us talk about the fun we had a previous roasts.  On the trip home, they repeatedly commented on how friendly everyone was and that it was more like a family reunion.  Dodgy's darling daughter really made a hit, she is a little doll.  Sure great to see old friends again.  Watching the games was a blast.  And to the Fat Olde Elf, I'm still ahead of you.   ;D

See I think Weekend Sawyer should have to do it over, 'cause I was in the bathroom when he did it and I didn't see no pictures of it! ;D

I think he had help building that log cabin also!

Sure was fun seeing old friends like "the Elf", Bill the WEAVER,  BB Tom, WD, and of course, the Boss,  who was tired but in fine form.   A real fine crowd of good folks who, collectively , have more common sense than all those people in Washington, D.C. put together.

I got rained on twice heading back to Ohio.   Whipped in under an underpass and popped the roof up on the Bird and kept goin'.  Hope the weather held up in Harrison.  The radio was talkin' twisters somewhere in Michigan.

AS I was leaving, saying goodbye and thanks to Jeff,  I had him sign my hat and he said no one had ever asked him to do that.  I may have been first but I bet I won't be the last!! 8) 8) 8)

It was great to see everybody again.  Yesterday, i rode down to Mansfield, OH, and snapped a pic of my bike in front of the prison used in the filming of the Shawshank . 

Today I rode into PA and saw an old covered bridge.  Right now, I'm in Jamestown, NY

There's a fine line between turning firewood into beautiful things and beautiful things into firewood.

Just got home about 7:00pm this evening. Went north up thru the UP and down thru Wisconsin. Went thru milwalkee just a couple of hours after the shooting and we couldnt go down the street we wanted to because the police had it all blocked off.
The roast was great and only because Jeff and Tammy did such a bang up job. I know that they spent untold hours at preparing all that great food.
Thanks for putting together the drawing and the method of the show down on some of the prizes. A many thanks also to all the people that provided all the great prizes.
It was great to meet so many people from many different states.
If there was a prize to be given, Jeff and Tammy would have won best party in town. Thanks again for what you have done. bg

You would say that since you beat me in the timberframe contest to win the LogRite cant hook.   ;) ;D

Yip pigman. You were a good contestant and thanks for letting me win.

Great job Tammy and Jeff, and all the others who made the roast possible.  Thanks to the people who donated the prizes.  Especially the people who donated the gas Grill I had the fortune to win.    Nice seeing you all again.  Hope everyone had a safe trip.


Thanks again to everyone!

We just got home and what a wonderful and safe trip it was.  We met several new to us members and it seems that we did not get to spend nearly enough time with anyone.

Jeff, Tammy, and family really go all out to make the Pig Roast a success, and they were successful.  I did not see anyone that was lonely or hungry.  There is just no way that I could describe the friendship that exist throughout the FF membership.

Letting you win nothing. I was trying to distract you by talking to you. I think I only distracted myself as usual. :(

That is unlike you Bob, as you are usually so quiet  :).
