Last week I drove to Enumclaw Washington and met Bubbie in person. He's a very distinguished looking guy who's much younger looking than his age. He was a gracious host and an excellent tour guide. He took me to Gerbing world headquarters in Tumwater and we got a short tour. I got to see where Bubbie lives and his well equipped welding shop where he made his millions. After meeting his much much better half I'm convinced he could sell freezers to the Eskimos but I'm still not sure how he talked his lovely wife into marrying him. Had a great time with both of them and was glad to put a face to a voice even if we look alike.
Then I went to Pocatello Idaho to meet the world famous Chopper. I thought I might have to show photo ID to prove to him I was Geezer because he didn't want to believe I drove all that way to meet him. He showed me his beautiful shop that he keeps neat as a pin and where he's going to make his millions. That man has tools I've never seen or heard of before. I was lucky that Chopper was caught up with the bikes that were in his shop and we chewed the fat for several hours. I went and met Sue at their home and we had a great visit. Although I've seen pictures of both of them and their place it was great to see and meet them in person. Unfortunately I could only stay for a day but we did go out for diner and back to their place. I can't wait for the next road trip and meeting more HDT members.
