It's been a really rough week.
A week ago Thursday I was on the phone with my friend Jim planning a trip to KM for the Labor Day weekend. On Monday I got a call that he had been admitted to the hospital. Not until near midnight did I find out the true nature of the situation. Didn't sleep much that night. Soon after getting out of bed I got the call that he had passed.
It really just didn't seem real, and it still doesn't. Like I said it made for a rough week with little sleeping and a lot of time spent staring off into space with a zombie like glaze.
I don't think he made many (if any) of the rides with the various members of the SoCal DBA crew, but he was along for a couple of trips that Timo and Rolls were part of.
A few of Jim's friends and I are starting to plan on a plaque for Jim to be placed out at the Husky. Going to try and get it done in September. We are tentatively planning a celebration of life type of service for Saturday Sept 6, so the Husky on the 7th would be awesome. Just don't know if it's going to be possible to pull that off.
