[Wasn’t sure if this should go in to “travel, “events,” “banter,” or what subthread, but put it here.  Mods can move if I chose incorrectly.]

===============

Over the years of SSR's, we have invited attendees to come visit us sometime here at the top of Virginia.

Eric <pressureangle> emailed us and wondered if the offer was still open.

Hmmmmm.  Unable to come up with any credible excuses for “no,” we said, “of course.”

Eric did mention that he had two traveling companions.  

I heard — apparently what I wanted to hear —  that one was a woman.  

The three arrived day before yesterday ...

Two beemerists and a Harley. [Really, Eric.  Puhleeze.]

 Wonder which the lady is on?  I’m going with one of the GS’s.

But, I ruled out this GS as, while I agree with the sticker's sentiment, I saw Eric pull in on it.

Hmmmmm.  What about this one?

What tag is that?

Ah, Quebec  Très intéressant.  

Perhaps she looks like Marianne Fortier in leathers; yes, undoubtedly.  Kathi, I can explain ... uhm; better not.

But what if the lady rides the Harley from Maine?

Never been much into knives, tassels, and tats, but one should be openminded about such things.

As, however, you may see from supper, no Marianne Fortier stand-in or biker-ette.  Sigh.

But Denys and Eric (#2) were great bubbas.

After the meal — and more than a wee bit of wine, beer, grappa, bourbon, and Fernet-Branca, Eric 2 got into the swing of things!

As always, of course, morning brings the reckoning …

Still, I thought Kathi was a bit too sad at E2's departure …

But, off they went …

Eric rode caboose to ensure no stragglers …

They spent last night at the Fancy Gap/BRP KOA; E2 seems to have transferred his hangover to Denys!

Not sure where the trio is today … will let Eric pick it up from here.

We had a great time and hope to see all three again.

But was there mutton?

No, it was a strictly Prussian affair.
