I have some questions on the
Hines Project I cann't seem to find. Has a bike been purchased? If so, what
year, color, etc. Has it been paid for or are you still taking donations? Did
all who pledged send the money? (don't mean to be mean but we all know how
humans are about putting things off) And finally, when and where is the
presentation going to take place. |

Greg's right here.
The bike is a Red
96SE.
It should arrive at Jack Huddles house today, and get lettered on
Wednesday. (Big Red II)
I will go over to Jacks on Wednesday evening, and
purchase the bike., and trail it home, then take it to Judi Simms house on
Friday (or Thursday) Insurance has been obtained.
I asked to stop on the
donations, we have exceeded our goal. I will be posting the final numbers, and
where all the money is going, but in the bank is $10,399.55. Can you
say......WOW.
We will have the presentation at the Sims house in Gratis.
That is Linda Hines sister, and is 20 minutes away from Eaton. Linda will bring
Bill over in order to "fix something" wink wink, then we will all come out from
behind the barn, and surprise him. I have to leave now to pick up my daughter,
but will make a post for directions when I get back.

Greg...
I had stated
in the other thread that I don't believe posting directions would be a good
idea.
Anyone can read this board and who knows if some nut would get hold of
that information.
This of course, Judi should have the final say in.

Someone needs to make sure the
folks who put the WW together know about this. Maybe they will add a section in
one of the issues with a pic or two.
Dang good job you folks have done!!

Greg, my wife and I would just
like to say, we are proud of the way you, and the membership, in this
organization GWRRA have pulled together to help out the Hines family. We bought
our 2002 Goldwing this past August and joined GWRRA that same day. No regrets
here. It is so nice to be a part of an organization where members put others
ahead of themselves. My wife and I consider you guys Angels in a world that is
really hurting. We only know you folks from the threads you right and hope one
day we can meet with all of you who have contributed to this good cause. The
coming together from people who don't even know who the Hines are to help just
one family. That's what LOVE is all about. I'm not trying to get gooshy, just
want to say thank you for allowing my family to see that humanity, love, and
fellowship is still alive and well, and living in peoples hearts. We too do not
know the Hines family, but know them in our hearts. And the wonderful thing it
is to love someone so much as you do Mrs. Hines. Thank you all, Hilton and Lona.

Hilton: I'll represent the
Pacific NW as I'm flying there on Friday. I'm looking forward to meeting more of
the GW family. I, too, am a recent owner (purchased in 9/01, ridden since 2/02,
put 12k+ miles on in my first year of riding). I'm liking what I'm seeing.

MY DEAREST FAMILY OF FRIENDS:
Yes you
will hear from me further down the thread but I wanted to take this opportunity
to tell Richard Brown he IS ON IT, just by caring and for the wonderful post.
Hilton and Lona welcome to the family. You have no idea how many there
are of you that has been here for me and Bill. I don't know how much the newbies
have read on this board, but we will try to have a "Family Reunion" somewhere
centralized so all can meet.
Greg, Tommy, Robin, Joe (from jaw ja') Tim,
Ronald, and many others have been great making me cry one minute and laugh the
next. Love you ALL!!
God Bless!
Love and Prayers,

I'm officially committed. I
went over to the SEATAC airport (very near my home), acquired my ticket and
turned in my flight credits that I received when I recently volunteered to be
bumped on a flight segment. Now I know why I received so much credit! So I get
to fly for free and get more mileage posted to my account and participate in a
what's going to be a joyous yet tear-filled event.
As the ticket agent
was preparing the ticket, I told her the story of why I was taking the trip and
she was almost in tears. With much more of the details she would have probably
paid me to take the trip!
So I'll see all of you on Friday 11/08. I'm
trying to arrange going to the Air Force Museum during the day on Friday and
perhaps again on Sunday, but I've got to work out the details.
Thanks
again Greg for starting this.

I'm not accusing Rob of
"sandbaging"... but I been thinking about the head-count for this thing. And I'm
wonderin' how many folks that live within oh, say 100 miles will just show up
Saturday morning and not bother to tell anyone they're comin' ?
I told
Bonnie yesterday that I'll bet we have WAY MORE than 100 folks there. I hope
someone has called the local TV station. This will be GREAT Public Relations for
the motorcycling community...

Joe,
I have thought
the same thing more than once. Especially since the local count is un
mentionable.
I know there will be others in the count like from family
members of Judi and Linda. Not a problem not having them in the count.
Greg okay bud fess up here. You can't possibly not be bringing your off
spring?

My girls will be
there. A 14 & 12 year old. They think this is soooo cool they say, They've
been telling their friends and teachers. I think the viewing audience of the BBS
is growing too.

Scott and Richard,
WingWorld knows. If you haven't received the December issue yet, part of
Linda's ad was published. Check out "Chicken Soup for The Soul," somewhere
around page 3 or so. Very nicely done piece - hopefully Bill doesn't get to the
WingWorld before Linda! Bill is not mentioned by name but it fills in the
picture pretty well!
And as I recall, some of the staff may have made
personal donations.

Bob,
Linda is aware of
the article, in fact Mike let Greg know and asked when do they get WW around
that area.
Linda is on the look out just in case.
The count now
stands at 105.
Have some things to do so will be gone for a
while.
