The life and times of Margie O'Malley: Happy Halloween!!

So, my club went on our aniversary trip this weekend. Good times, good times. Prepare yourself.. here come the pics.
Now, don't worry, I'm only going to post some of them.. not all 130.

We started off Friday morning meeting for breakfast.

One of my sisters thought that she may have sprained her ankle.. more on that later.

Here she is lookin' too cool with her foot up,

while the efforts to fix the first break down of the day started.

Here's my bike :)

After spending 2 hours at the damn, we got back on the road (- one sister and one bike).

At Rosie's, we discovered our next break!
The oldest bike on the trip blew out the rear brake caliper..
well, that's why they have front brakes.. hahaha!
We weren't going to let a little thing like brakes slow us down (hehe punny).

Back on the road!!

This is probably the coolest bike on the trip..

even in the middle of the desert with a flat tire! Break #3.

Our VP handled the flat very well, so we decided to put the injured in the tow truck instead of her.

We spent a couple hours at Mother Road Harley, then got back on the road for an uneventful final 60 miles!!

3 hour trip = 9 hours

Turns out, BJ's!! (you suck!) does not allow clubs in their bar...
That OK though, we found McKee's around the corner, which is cool, cause we kinda have a thing for Irish Bars anyways!!

This guy made us fresh chips and salsa.

Saturday, the sun rose to reveal "London Bridge Days" in full swing!
Who knew!!
Since we were traped by the parade, we decided to watch it for a little while.

This is the Lake Havasue chapter of the Women in the Wind,

and here's a very bad a$$ k-9!

After the Lake Havasue Mommy's club went by (one kid kept running into his mom's leg with his power wheels hummer hahahaha), we decided it was time to find something a little more entertaining..

We rode over to check out the local biker bar (while it was still light out).

This is the ausome view from the front door.

(yep, that's the lake)

And here is the bike parking!!

When the parade finally finished, we were able to get across the bridge to the island!
It's a desert island.. like a deserted island with lots of people hahahah!

Hey, that explains why the 3 hour trip took soo long!! a three hour tour.. hahaha sorry.

Here we are on one of the light houses.

I'm a bad a$$ can you tell?

Here are a couple pics that I took while we were there..

After cruisin' around the island, my injured sister finally let us take her to the hospital..
It was way more than a sprain!!
I can't remember what its called, but the part of the bone that the tendon is attached to chipped away from the rest of the bone!!!

She rode 80 some miles like that!!

After they released her, we had dinner at a groovie brewery on the island.

This was our dinner view!!

That's THE London bridge!

There were a bunch of people meeting there for a Halloween party!

he he he

I played with the settings on my camera for a little bit!

I like it!

After dinner, we found that the party had not yet started at the biker bar.

Our VP said she had seen something going on back up the street; bikes, people partyin' on the sidewalk, so we decided to go back and check it out!

We pulled up, parked like pros, got off our bikes, and walked up to the party all cool like.

"Where's the bar?" almost in unison.. which was met by much laughter!?
and confusion...
by us!?

They pointed at the signs above their heads...

We couldn't have made up a funnier story..
Turns out, we just pulled up to the NA/ AA halloween party and asked where the bar was!!
I'm not sure who thought it was funnier.. us or them!!

There was a woman there with a dry erase board strapped to the front of her.. she pointed to it and informed us that this might be our sign! hahaha

Jesus was there, and he thought it was hilarious!!
