This past Saturday (October 9th) was the 2nd Annual Upside 2 Downs Motorcycle Ride.. And it was a blast!!
Here is a little FYI about Upside 2 Downs: "Upside2downs is an organization that aims towards educating, inspiring and encouraging our parents with the tools to build, strengthen and empower our children to reaching their highest potential in life. Our goal is to expose to society, that those who are usually looked at as second hand citizens are capable of being productive citizens. Even to go as far as teaching society some of the basics that they have forgotten such as: Unconditional Love, Pride for their Job and a Way of looking at life a little less seriously."
October is not only Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it is also Downs Syndrome Awareness Month. And since I have two cousins with Downs and I have met more people with it, I have become aware. They may look and talk differently and may have to live with someone for the rest of their lives, they are no different from you or I. And the one great thing about them is they don't have a mean bone in their body. You smile at one and you are their friend for life.
Here are some pics from the fun day... It was a real Blessing...
