well I'm finally getting some things in order and kind of back on track! I loaded up the bike and headed out to Sparks for the Baca 100 mile ride on Friday  afternoon! the ride was nice not eventful but nice! I didn't have to set up camp Tony put me in a little camper trailer with a real bed! I said little but really it is about 20 times bigger than my tent! full size bed couch table and chairs, real potty! I put all my stuff inside got my camera out and headed out to see who was there! and what was new and that is the big thing Tony has several cool new things going on "IE construction" you will be surprised to see! 

I'm not going to go in to all of it you need to get out and come see for your self! Friday night was a bit slower most folks were  hanging out in camp talking and having fun! I visited till about 12 and went to bed! I woke up about 8:30 in the morning. and wet to get me some coffee and something to eat! at Hands of Prayer, then I wondered around for a bit till they were ready to start the games!

 I did pretty good in them and they had a new thing they did for the games not only did they have points for the chapter that won each event they had brass key fobs instead of trophies! we did the slow race, double slow race, balloon toss, wennie bite potato race, then some people games like the plunger race and hula hoop finally the suck and blow, I took a few portraits of friends just for fun along the way!   

I had said I would auction off my points so if one chapter wanted they could get some extra points but since the 19 points I won were not enough to help any chapter and the person who most likely would want them knew they were  not close enough to make a difference so It was a mute point!  I donated $20 to the cause and hit up the winning chapter to match it and the loosing chapter for 10 more so they got the extra money for baca anyway!  maybe next year it will be closer! After the games every one got together to release the balloons one for each child killed by child abuse! there were 51 but one is too many! after the balloon release  people got busy with getting something to eat and then back to enjoy  some music and fellowship which other than being a fundraiser for baca that is what this party is about!
