Scott
Wouldn't ya like to know what he was thinking at the moment lol.
Mary &
Donna and one very nice gal named Kay

Pics from
Scott Golden's photo shoot at the Wall

there Saturday which will be used for The Veterans Business Journal
Magazine in the next month or so.

Part of the Golden Clan heading out of the Hyatt for the Pentagon parking lot
This year
once again we
were
priviledged and entrusted
with the security and escort of Colonel Nyuen Kim Ban.
On a good note
this year we didn't have to do it alone lol.
Donna &
I (Clell) had the help of
Jack, Rez,
Maria, Jeff, Debbie and 4 others to aid us
in the task of
keeping the Colonel's Convoy of vehicles and people within them safe
which worked out just great.

This year I
put the two mean ones "Donna & Maria" in the back to
guard the rear.

One of the
several helicopters
that loomed
over us all at the Demonstration this year
President Bush
even did a fly
over all of us in the Pentagon in a helicopter this year
Paying the piper really barks lol.
Scott's
Scooter gave it up again
on Hwy 66
just about 5 miles west of DC so here we go "again"
This time his scooter was DOA so after about a 3 hour wait learning what it's like to be trolls under the bridge thanks to a smart woman named Mary we all got back on the road again. And wouldn't ya know it by this time it was raining cats n dogs lol.
After they got it back home and took it to KHD it was found that an add on called a Power Commander which is what had been failing all the time. Had we known any better we could have taken it out of the line it was installed in and went about our merry way back home.
These two pics were taken just after Rez said to his darling wife

Our hotel for the night had the look of Memorial Day in Bagdad lol
After we got our room here for the night we lit out UHaul Style to the local Pizza Hut
After
catching up on some well needed food & stuff
we once again
"bravely" all loaded up in Scott & Marys Trusty Harley
haulin UHaul
and bounced
our way to a local 711 store where things almost got mean.
It seems
that a couple of our folks were suffering from something they called
monkey butt
and they
almost took out poor little Mary fighting over the last bottle of
powder left in the 711 store lol.
We won't
mention any names here to protect the innocent lol.

The Winner of the battle over the baby powder.
We left there
about 10:00am and arrived back home safe n sound about 8:30pm.
It was one
very very long trip but it was worth every minute of it!
End
