I was in Montrose yesterday for my mom's memorial service. She died on Christmas Eve, but yesterday was a very special day in her life so we all decided months ago she'd like that date for the memorial.

Montrose is 300 miles away so I got a room at the Red Arrow motel. Hotels were full so my kids ended up across the street at the Black Canyon motel. Some Valkyrie riders will remember these places as the Colorado High Country Cruisers held several rallies at both locations.

As I was pulling into the parking lot to meet my kids I noticed a white F6B with a Massachusetts plate. Could that be the guy who started this thread? It sure was. What a small world! Wayne, I enjoyed meeting and talking with you.
