burn outs , beer bluesky...all weekend long. and it got better as each eve. cooled things off. what a great show.
ok, every year or so people are nominated to become shade trees, and they take this serious! well deisel, and token and one other got nominated and i cant remember his name to save my ass.
well maddog told deisel to put a shade tree sticker higher than the others at the finnish line, well they did.
then dog got his wife to get one higher , so the nomanees hoisted her up and got it done!
i pitty next years nominiees cause they are gonna need a ladder truck.
later me and doc rolled out lookin a sleepin bag for him at walmart. found some killer egg rolls, and just goofed off for a bit.
the bonfire came back to life !
about 5000 lbs of food was served up for all. and then the nominate and coin ceramoney went down with doc singing the national anthem, and then maddog announced the years nominees for membership,
deisel, token chad, and one other ,,,and i still cant remember his name! sorry , im new to this group and to many to remember.
then maddog stood attop a old shitter and announced two people were getting member coins, and as he went to read the name on the first coin he dropped it right in the shitter! everyone lost it, doc grabbed it out and mad dog read the name davo! the crowed went nuts !
and then he called out scotty, and a big applause went up.
they took the oath and the chalis was passed all around to toast the new trees.
after the ceramoney, shop rag announced that dave and tam after three years have decided to get hitched, again the crowed hooped and hollered in approval. congrats brother she is an awsome catch, and i wish you all the best.
later the whole camp saddled up and rode into the woods about a mile behind the track, were the shade tree family laid to rest the ashes of a young brother , robert. his ashes now rest with two other shadetree brothers and they are vivisted every year at the end of the gathering.
maddog lead the group in prayer , yeager was passed and finnished, and beers drank in memory of fallen brothers. rip.
then we rode back and partied the nite away.
if you never meet a shade tree member, well your missin out, they give and give some more, they treat guests like family.
