|
| | This team gets ready to leave the Littleton Bar. Send names please. | |
| | | MelonHeads rest under the great white awning at the Littleton Bar. | |
|
| | T'was muggy in the bar...therefore the minimum clothing is worn. Okay!!! | |
| | | The Littleton stop. It was nicer outside the building. | |
|
| | Two on left are unknown, then Karen, Jodi, Riley, Clint and Clint's dad. | |
| | | Ken and Donna facing us. Not sure who the others are...can't see their faces. | |
|
| | Is she wearing her boyfriend's shorts or advertising for something? | |
| | | You all know this team. Why do such pretty women hang with such ugly guys? | |
|
| | Carmen, Tom, Annie and Brian are seated while Nick, Denny, Myra and Randy stand. | |
| | | Craig gets a big hug and tongue in the ear. | |
|
| | Autumn sits on Jodi's future father-in-law's lap while Julie watches. | |
| | | Sara practices MelonHead tattooing on a willing participant as Ginny watches. | |
|
| | Is this not eerie? Annie, Nick, Tom, Patsy, Carmen, Myra, Brian and Denny. | |
| | | She misunderstood what I said. I told her to go over and "kick" his ass! | |
|
| | Four more people who I do not know. To send me their names click the box below. | |
| | | Alicia and Jenn wave. Along with Donna, the only BUD girls I saw on the ride. | |
|
| | At the first oasis. "I can't wait until I'm old enough to do RASH Ride!" | |
| | | At the first oasis, Judi tries her hand or should I say hips at Hula Hooping. | |
|
| | Not to be outdone by her sister, Sara also demonstrates her hip gyration skills. | |
| | | The Savages arrive. Judi discovers things hanging free under the kilts. | |
|
| | Although we didn't see Chickenman, we did get to draw beer from his truck. | |
| | | Although it might look like burnt offerings, the burgers were great. | |
|
| | Brenda, Brian, Marv and Yvonne take a break at the second oasis stop. | |
| | | Most of the MelonHeads take a rest stop at Wee Willy's in Quasqueton. | |
|
| | Julie, aka Vegas (red top) with friends who recently moved to Independence. | |
| | | After dining at Bill's, some of us posed with owner Bill (red shirt). Great guy! | |
|
| | We're amazed that we could build a sand castle that looks like a giant penis. | |
| | | In two weeks, Kim and Dave celebrate 17 years of marriage by doing Stiff Ride. | |
|
| | Julie and Donna said, "Gee Tom, we are not used to seeing you with clothes on!" | |
| | | Who's playing the tambourine while she's dancing? Is she in the band? | |
|
| | The band whoops it up while everyone dances. | |
| | | Sara and Judi boogie to the band at Bill's Beach Party. | |
|
| | Another view from our campsite after the tents were taken down. | |
| | | A beautiful picture of the Independence Mill taken from our campsite. | |
