Milwaukee Parade 1986


SAVE0555, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

Got a call from John Herriott this morning about going to the Milwaukee Parade in July. Sounds like a lot of fun but I haven't quite recovered from the last trip we made to Hershey.
On the return flight I had my suit case emptied and a search was made for an explosive device that turned out to be a Grandma badge that Dave Orr had given me.
I'll check with my banker and see what she has to say. Johnny seemed to think accommodations would be no problem.

Thanks Al and despite this picture being taken twenty three years ago, I remain a fine figure of a man.

AL CABAL ! Hey, I've heard of him.
Great guy! Hi Al.

Buckles, aka, FFOAM, sure hope you and the Col will make Milwaukee. Diane and I will be there for the CHS convention after visiting CWM first. Would be wonderful to update my Woodcock and Herriott files and to gift you revered gentlemen with a libation or two.

Best to you all.

Libation?

You mean they have alcohol at these things?

buckles, what is your tattoo of?

That was a nine pointed star almost 60 years ago when a tattoo artist in the Cole Show side show put it on
much to my mother's dismay. It has long since lost it's color.
Fortunately I had the word "Buckles" added since in my advanced age, I can now be identified should I wander off.
