Dateline: Sand Point AK – While frantically typing away to capture the story, the reporter’s friends do everything in their power to keep the story from happening. Is this collusion of rivals, or good-hearted ribbing? Only the resulting article will tell.

Uncle Doug and The Harley

Always fun to see family photos like this. My Uncle Doug was jist a kid when he was put on the seat of this hardtail. Our family has a long history with motorcyles; my Grandpa Harlow rode Harley-Davidson in high school during the 1920s, and I ride a Sportster today. Given that, I’m not surprised that this picture exists!
