A bunch of us at the Baker City bike rally


The bunch of us headed up Hells Canyon, but ran into a rain storm, so turned back towards Baker City, but we made a pit stop at this rest area when the rain stopped.

My sister Sharon and her husband Gerry


This is my sister Sharon, and her hubby Gerry Blackwell, altho all my life I called her Kitty,( a family nickname for her when she was young) and she still allows me to call her that, altho I'm sure she would rather I didn't :-) They are both retired and live in BC Canada.

This is our granddaughter Amber and her friend


Our granddaughter Amber with a friend. Amber was in a terrible car wreck earlier this year which almost took her from us, she lost two friends, and we are so lucky to still have her with us !!

Wayne and Cindy


Our son Wayne and daughter-in-law Cindy, who reside in Big Arm, Montana. Have 35 acres, and have horses to ride too.

The Wildhogs !!


Not really, just Wayne, Al, and dad getting ready to take a ride around Flathead Lake near Big Arm, Montana. Al was riding mom's 900LT on that trip. Someone was giving the Hawaiian peace sign :-) Hummm, guess who ?

Our son Wayne and Family


This is our son Wayne, with wife Cindy, and daughters Jana and Jess when we all hiked up to Barney Lake above Upper Twin Lake campground out of Bridgeport Calif. About a 9 mile round trip hike. We camped many times at Upper twin, great place !

Our new home here in Mountain Home


This is probably the last home we will have. It's a great house, built on 1.2 acres, two miles from town. 4 bedrooms and two baths. Have plenty of room for our garden, and we also had a big shop built for all of our toys :-)

Mom and Dad Clement


Both of Barb's parents are gone now, and are missed very much. They did live a long and interesting life, RIP folks.......

Just Barb and I


This was taken about 10 years or so ago, but of course we still look the same...right ! :-) We have been hugging each other now for about 40 years. Time sure goes by fast when your in love and having fun !

Barb and I at the Alberta Canada rally


We had fun on this bike trip, altho it did get very wet at times. The rally was held in the Lake Louise area by Banff. This is just one of the several VROC club rallies we have attended over the past few years.

Here is nephew Steve and his wife Judy


Another great bike rider. All three nephews have ridden in the tough Virginia City races. The three Dahl nephews are my brother Ray's sons, but to Barb and I, they are our boys !

Nephew Rick and his wife Barby


All three nephews ride bikes. Currently, Rick is riding a Harley, but he changes bikes allot, so he may be riding some other brand the next time we get together :-)

Mom on her new toy



Mom rides this quad like a wild woman, about like she rides her motorcycle...:-)

Barb catching the big trout at C J Strike



What a fisher-woman ! :-) When she first started fishing with me, I had to put the worm on her hook, and take off the fish she caught, now she does it all, and usually out fishes me !

Bob and his big sister Alva



My big sister is very special to me !

Bob and Al at Oregon sand dunes



Yee Haw !! Son-in-law Al is one hell of a driver! I think he was actually trying to scare the crap out of me, but it took a long time to get the smile off my face :-)

Our nephew, Brian (Bubba) and Judith



One great kid, and his SO is great too ! Bubba has bunches of toys, motorcycles and atv's, and he works hard, and plays hard too !

Al, Robin and family


We had an addition to our family in August 2008. Al, and his kids, Kirsten and Cody. Al and our daughter Robin were married and joined their familes together, and of course he and the kids are now part of our family too.

Country Spice band, 1986 Centralia Moose Club



This was the last Country Spice band and which was disbanded in 1989 when we moved to Nevada. Gary Parkison on lead, Martin Barkus on drums, Jim Meyer on keyboard, and of course myself on bass guitar.

Modern Country, Kelso Legion Club



This is the Grady Harris band Modern Country which I played with for a spell. We played in most of the clubs and lounges around the SW Washington area. Clyde McCoy on lead guitar, Jim Meyer on drums, Grady on rhythm guitar, and me on bass. Had a great time playing with Grady and the bunch. Lots of talent!

Bob's 2002 Kawasaki Nomad



My "new to me" 2002 Kawasaki 1500 Nomad, which I bought from nephew Rick Dahl. He made me an offer I couldn't refuse, which meant a heck of a great price! I guess he likes his uncle :-) I sold my 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Classic, to new son-in-law Al. The Nomad has all the bells and whistles.

This is Barb's new Kawasaki Vulcan 900 LT



THis is Barb's new ride. A 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 900LT. She rode a 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic for several years, and made the move to this bigger bike with no trouble at all. Of course she rides it just as hard as she did her 800, hard and fast !
