I'm working on another post with more pics, but here is the one we posted on GoE.

GoE II Pics

D.C. Chapter Ping

I had to link to the GoE site, but I’m preparing one especially for FR.

Looks like almost nobody showed up in those pictures.

It was a very hot day, especially on the steps. The speaker system was sufficient enough to allowed a lot of them to also sit off to the side in the shade.

In comparison to GoE I, yes the numbers were down, which is expected so soon after GoE I. And a lot stayed home for their own town’s celebrations.

But all in all, those who attended had a good time.

Where were you?

[Khepera]

Unemployed and broke at the moment. Looking for a job. I have had several interviews and I am going to Massachusetts for an interview tomorrow. I'm going to be there 3 days. Most of my time has been spent trying to survive.

[mdittmar]

I wish you the best of luck,we all have problems,but never step on a thread.

[Khepera]

OK what do you mean. I was making an observation. It would seem that my observation was correct. I hate it that not more people were there. I wish I could have been there but I have not stepped on anybody’s thread. The fact that you don’t like my truthful observation is too bad.

[EmilyGeiger]

Those were great pictures!

Great pictures. Looks like it was a really good day!
Our local parade was nice. Lead by the local VFW which included a young Marine . No moonbats to ruin the day.

Thank you

Sorry I missed you guys, I hung out with Kit and RT under the tent.

[Khepera]

Now thats what I want to see. Thank you for the ping.

[trooprally]

Saw the tents. We were there early and we should have wondered under the tent to say ‘hi’ to everyone. But there will be other GoE events.

I notice the camouflage shirt worn by the lady in the first pic.
Camouflage pattern dresses, skirts and shirts are becoming more common attire for waitresses at my favorite watering hole. “Go Army” and “Semper Fi” T-shirts are also popular. Dancers are starting to wear camouflage pattern bikinis.
The GI customers do seem to like it.

[E Rocc]

Any pictures of the guy who made the post suggesting vandalism of motorcycles?

I can think of a few organizations that might be interested.

I would also like the dancers, but don't watch them any more. Enjoying being too old and too married. :-))
