Miracle Ride
The Miracle ride was today. The weather was amazing! In the 80's for CT that is rare... April is an iffy month it could be snowing, hailing, raining cats and dogs or beautiful. Today was beautiful! From what I understand this was a record breaking turnout! My mom stayed an watched all the bikers leave... she said some were rushing up last minute to register. We met some amazing, big hearted people! Becca had a blast and even picked out which bike she wants to have when she gets older... A pink Harley... not a bad choice...LOL This was my first time speaking in front of a crowd so big, they made it so easy! All the money raised will go to specific equipment that the NICU is in need of! All of you know how I feel about the NICU, so it was wonderful to find that out. The ride started at the old Newington Children's Hospital, the bikers rode past CCMC and then off to Granby, High Meadow! All you Newington kids must have fond memories of High Meadow! I know I do... it hasn't changed. The pool was opened! Trying to convince the kids that yes it is hot, but no you can not swim in April did not go over well...LOL Thanks to everyone that rode and to everyone that sponsored the ride!
