One of the things I love about watching conference in Utah are the little news/movie/biography vignettes that KSL plays between sessions. Stories about members, temples and events from around the world are featured. Today, "Footprints of Faith" featured the Temple Riders motorcycle group. Now really, how can you not smile when you see this? Our bishop in Colorado, Bishop Chuck Barton loved going on motorcycle trips with his wife Bea (I loved having Bea as my visiting teacher). I always loved that they had such a unique hobby together. There was a running joke that you could hear the hum of their motorcycles in the parking lot on the day he was released. Hmm...I wonder, are they part of the Temple Riders today?

ACTUALLY...
We did join for a couple of years... TRA just never really took off here in Colorado. Pretty much a Utah organization. But great people.
However we are temple workers here in the Denver Temple... Does that count???
We took a ride to the church sites back east all the way back to Sharon Vt this summer almost 5k miles in all.
Can you hear the Harley running in the background???? Oh Yeah...
Hope your guys are well...
Chuck and Bea Barton
OHHHH Bea!!!! I can't tell you how happy seeing your comment made me. What a great surprise! :) I'm just thrilled to hear from you...we love you both and think of you often. So glad to hear you are both enjoying some rides together...that church history trips sounds wonderful.
