    Toys for Tots

    On Sunday my cousin Don & I attended the Honolulu Toys for Tots Bike Run. It was a fun time with over 5000 bikers. Don is an Air force E9 here on TDY for 3 months, this is the 1ST time in the last 11 years he is not in Antarctica. He got the luck of the draw and gets to work the season from PAC AF @ Hickam Airbase. While he is here I am letting him use one of my bikes, the blue 1997 1200 Custom Sportster, I was riding my red/white 2002 Heritage Springer Classic. I gave him a stuffed penguin to give to the tots.


    here is Don talking to his wife (home in snow in Albany, NY)

    more to come

    Great pics, gives me memories of the ABATE Del-Val Toy Run in Philadelphia, I went to in both 2001 and 2002. Thanks for the photos, glad you could spend some time with your brother as well for such a good cause.
