Always Amazing!

Hey Everyone!  It was a little misty from time to time, with a slight wind chill... yet that didn't deter you from being amazing!   We are still awaiting a count on 'total dollars raised' but one thing we know for sure, it was fantastic!

We're building a slideshow with pictures, so if you have some you'd like to share, please send them to rollandstroll@hotmail.com  

For now, here are a few shots of the day... we have many more pictures to share, so that slide show is in the works!  

Thanks for all you do!
