2011 Run for the Son

May 29th 2011 was not the typical warm late may day. The temp hovered at about 7degrees with virtually no wind. The group met for breaky at Smities on the higway. We were joined there by our Area Coordinator James Rosso who had decided to come to Brandon by car. We had very little choices in highways to take to get to Shoal Lake. Many of the secondary highways were closed due to flooding.
We had been invited once again to the home church of our Chaplain Merl Isaakthe We are so blessed by this congregation. The speaker for the service was our very own biker/pastor Scott Allen, his Dauphin congregation hosted Manitoba area Seasons of Refreshing in early April.
The rest of the day was rather cool so the group did not go for an extended ride. After a delicious lunch we headed back to Brandon. At this time I want to recognize Helen Rankin for getting Gene out to our events. Gene is having a difficult time and would covet your prayers for healing.  Here are a few pictures and there are many more on the photo server. Click on the spot on the left side of the screen and see them all.

This is our group getting ready to head off to Shoal Lake. It's about 9:00 am and about 7 degrees.
