But we're def down to have some fun.
No worries, brisk is the new norm.

Got caught in a huge rain storm yesterday. Now I need to wash it again.

Looking forward to seeing that green machine. Interesting choice of colors my friend.

Cool and casual event. It was very nice to meet some of the crazy 8 crew. Thanks Mark for lunch. I was not expecting that. My lunch should of been free, cause my burger had a full piece of wax paper in it from the cheese.

I guess I got free lunch either way.

I'm down for another cruise when you guys are ready

It was a great day and was very cool to finally meet some of my fellow valley people. We must do it again soon.

Mark - Thanks for lunch, that was much too kind.

Happy birthday Lew!

I posted some pics up on the Crazy 8's Facebook page and will post some up here tomorrow for those that don't do Facebook.
