Farewell Get-Together

 We met for a farewell get together where we enjoyed wine compliments of Anita and Bill,fellow bikers and owners of Creekside Wines (in Colorado).

Catherine Dowling was a wonderful tour leader. She filled us with Irish stories and folklore in her lilty voice. She happily biked along side us or scurried ahead to point out the next turn. She has been a VBT leader for 2 seasons but is thinking of pursuing another career. Catherine has 4 brothers and a sister. She also plays a guitar and is a vocalist in the group Alphastates. Even though, she was sick with a cold, Catherine treated us to one of her songs.

Luke, who will be studying music this fall at the University of Oregon, surprised us all with his talent.
