William,
the "LHSA" feeling is not that US specific
The area around our meeting location is a beautiful landscape in the geographical middle of Germany. Wetzlar, Giessen and other cities (with a far reaching medivial background) have a character of their own and are always worth a visit.
In case your wife travels with you, Frankfurt is close for shopping
Take the opportunity and join us next time (this is for all of you, -ladies and gents- out there!). You'll arrive as a "newie" and will leave as a friend. This is what makes the gathering so unique...
Enjoy your Morgan ride (I am jealous, man) and have a damned good time!
Hope to hear from you again (and see Photos from the Morgans!!!!)
best regards from hot Germany - Klaus
