Special Note from your Webmaster:  I'd like to take up a small amount of space and express my apologies for causing the newsletter to be posted almost a month late!  I moved during that time period and my attentions were elsewhere!  I'm sorry if some of the info seems late, or out of date!   Hopefully we will be able to post a fresh final newsletter of the year at the end of December.   Terry Mendoza

News & Views from our CD

     Here it is past time for the newsletter again and I have nothing to write about!  I could write about current events and world affairs, it would not sound like what you have heard, so I'll not do that.
     It has been so hot this summer that I have curtailed my riding.  We were able to get in a couple of morning rides for breakfast, one to Coldsprings and the other to Conroe.
     Most of the Chapter had plans to go to the Region H Rally in Marshall, but it was called off because of Hurricane Katrina.  We then planned to take an overnight ride on the 29th and 30th of October but cancelled that because of Hurricane Rita!  So, we went to Sam's in Fairfield for lunch.. you just have to be flexible!  Hopefully with cooler weather we will be able to get in a little seat time.  We all need it.
     We have worked out the basic plans for the Christmas party.  PLACE - Everett and Sandy's house.  WHEN - 2nd Saturday in December (10th).  TIME - 6 p.m. until you are ready to go home.  Food is still in the planning stage.  Each person needs to bring a gift with a $15.00 limit. (P.S. It should be something John Anderson would like!)
     I am having some problems with the newsletter content.  What needs to be included is 1.) something from the C.D., Everett, Sandy or both.  2.) Something from the A.C.D., Frank, Pam, or both.  3.)  Something from the Educator, Glenn. and 4.) Anything that ANYONE in the chapter finds of interest.
     With the website, I would like to see a lot of pictures.  More like a magazine format.  With this format almost anything would fit and be of interest to all.
     This is what I would like to try, but I will need your help and input to make it work.  Any photos can be submitted to me for scanning or can be submitted via email.  Whatever works best for you.  Just include some details of each photo or submit a story.  Just so we are all contributing.  We'll just have to work on the timing more to get then newsletters updated on time.

Chapter F Gathering
October 8 2005
Madisonville, Texas

     We gathered at 8:30 AM at the Second Baptist Church with members Everett and Sandra Wooten, John and Janean Anderson , Olan and Regina Weaver, Mike  Rowley , Dorthy Villa , Butch and Carolyn Morris, and Frank and  Pam Lucas.  Meeting with us from GWRRA Regional was Steve and Judy Mueller our Asst. Regional Directors. 
     It is always very informative and very interesting to have someone like Steve and Judy visit our Chapter. We discussed our Christmas Party and where it is going to be. It is very nice of Everett and Sandra to have the Christmas Party at their Home. It will be a lot of fun; I can’t wait to battle with John over the presents.  
     After the meeting we made a short ride to Leona for breakfast at one of the best little restaurants in Texas. I think the name of the restaurant was Pecan Grove, well I not sure but the food was good, and it is in Leona, Texas on Old 75. It isn't hard to miss because they have a Caution Light.      The food was great and the waitress was a true professional with a lot of gab. 
     After breakfast John and Janean, Butch and Carolyn and Pam and I rode on to Jewett to a Car Show and Flea Market. The Car Show was small but they had some real nice Cars and Pickups. We had a nice time looking around at the Flea Market.  It is always lots of fun looking at all the stuff people try and sell. Janean can give a more in depth report at what they had at the Flea Market. 
    
After Jewett we all headed for home hoping to ride another day. With the weather cooling a little riding will be a lot better.  If anybody wants to ride give us a call. See you down the road.

Something to Think About.......

I received this as an e-mail from a friend.  It is "Two Wolves" and "Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder".  I found them both interesting.
