Both history and sediment is rich in the Upper Mississippi River delta country where three Ferriday cousins are remembered for taking their musical talents to the top of the charts. Today we’ll listen to the keynote performers for appetizers, cruise under the bluffs for the main course, and then hike on emerald mounds for dessert. Enjoying the splendor of the delta from the prime vantage point of our two wheel transports and thanking God for friends who make the pathway unforgettable.

What fun it was to watch as Kadence & Karter opened the gifts we brought tonight. Our Christmas family was really blessed as we arrived with toys, clothes, food, a bicycle for the girl, diapers, and a gift card to Walmart for $400.00. On top of that we mailed off a check to the Lyons family for $500.00. I'll say it again...I'm so proud to be part of such a giving group of people. You'll never know how much the gift you gave will mean to those whose lives it touches.

What a great day we had today. First we had a men's breakfast, then some of us went to the Wreaths Across America ceremony at the National Cemetery, then visited with other bikers at Best Bikes who had just done a toys for tots ride. We had read beans and rice there. Then we road in our first parade, the Ball Christmas Parade. There were six CROP members riding and two passengers who really helped on thowing all that candy out. Great time together. Thanks to all of you.

There aren't that many place that is worth a 3 hour ride just to eat lunch, but The Dinner Bell is one. The setting is wonderfully done in this old home with the huge round tables with the lazy susan for the buffet. The food is always good ole home country cooking. Great ride, great time, great food. It was good to have 16 in attendance.

We were so honored to be able to ride up to Fisher LA to see such an amazing young gentleman, Dawson Lowe. He is 10 years old and is fighting cancer for the 3rd time. A wonderful story was done on the news about him and God placed him on the heart of Doyle Bullock that we should meet him. When we arrived in Fisher there was a special event taking place for Dawson with a medieval times setting for presenting gifts to him as he sat next to the king. Doyle was chosen to step up and present the gifts we had for him. God used Doyle to share our faith in Jesus Christ through this presentation. We were also honored to have David, with CMA, make the ride with us.
