In Louisville - ALR Meeting Day (After the fact...)

Ok, ok, ok. So much for staying up on the blog. Mea Culpa.

So, Day 5 was a chance to sleep in (especially after the Kansas Party I), rest a bit, and have a little more leisurely day. After goofing around way too long, we went to the convention center and attended the annual Legion Riders national meeting.


We presented the $200 we collected at the Kansas Party I. (We told everyone we were recouping expenses for throwing the party, when in actuality we were extracting more $ from them for the Legacy Fund. Insert evil laugh here.)


Then it was off to Joe's Crab Shack on the river. Aren't the bibs cute?




Then Brenda had the bright idea to go for a ride in a horse drawn carriage. Of course, Brenda rode up front with the driver and his dog, while the six of us had to cram in the back. You can't say we're not a close bunch.


After that, we headed back to the hotel. We decided that since we still had some barley pop left, we should have another little gathering at the hotel. Of course, we were out of certain other liquid components, so we had to make another stop at the Liquor Barn. They had cigars too, so I was able to get some Excaliburs too (my new favorite cigar, thanks to Jeff).


We did NOT buy this:



Back to the hotel, where we found out the hotel was letting us use one of their meeting rooms for free, and Bob was getting his sound system set up again.


What's more, we had an overhead door that opened up on the parking lot, so we could have a indoor/outdoor party.


So the Kansas Party II was on, and it was bigger and better than the first night.


Ahab the Arab showed up!


A good time was had by all.

And that's all...
