Wall Of Honor

For Armed Forces Day, Beartooth Harley has a Wall of Heroes. Armed Forces Day was last Saturday and we got an e-mail from the dealership asking for photos of military veterans and those currently serving to be put up on their wall.

We had fun looking through our photo albums, but the first order of business was finding the albums. Several years ago I had boxed up all our photo albums and stuck them in the hall closet. I'm sure that I would go through them someday and put them away. We got the boxes down and started sorting through albums.

It was fun looking through the old albums and reminiscing. I also got the closet cleaned out too. Found our military albums and it was fun looking through those too. Jennifer got a kick at how young we were and surprised at some of the photos.

Anyway we picked out our favorite ones. I took photos of the photos as we didn't want to take the originals anyway. Fixed them up on Photoshop and got them printed.

Off to Billings we went, picked up our photos and took them to the dealership. Saw some of our friends and visited for a bit. We wanted to get back home soon before the roads were closed due to flooding. Fly Creek was almost over the bridge.

Here are the photos that we have hanging on the Wall of Heroes. Now I just have to find a good one of Robert to put up. The Wall will be a permanent fixture at the dealership.
