I found one lone GMC north of town today. He is from Nevada. On our way home, From Lake Havasu City, we saw 3 GMC coaches and one big old Foretravel circled just south of Rice Ranch. Will try to visit with them tomorrow after church.

Larry, you will have to take an exit west one mile or east one mile to get on 95. Grab the south service road. Just as you get out of town, not far, the GMCs will be parked on your left. It is not even a quarter mile. We are parked 5 miles south of town.

Dan,
That is the Pacific Cruisers. The Foretravel is Bob Lamey's. Ken and Judy
Booth should be there also. I think the other GMC belongs to Joan and Phil
Hernandez.

Dan, that is the Pacific Cruisers. My coach is there right now. Should be about ~20 coaches there this week. We headed home today in the car as I have to go to work in Colorado all week. We will be back up there friday for the weekend. Hope to see you.

Larry Widner's paint job is awesome!

Had to run into town for some wire lugs and my coffee. Did not see Gary Berry's coach. I know he is here somewhere.

Dan,
After reading what the Q website said about the huge number of vendors this
year, I'm really surprised by your observation. Has it grown since you've
been there?

No, the vendors have not grown but the people coming in really increased today. I know this weekend the Big Tent will be very busy. I have not worked a full day since we finished the cotton harvest. Hope I can make it. Rolling Eyes

Tent vendors do not start arriving until Wednesday. That's when I get there.

We will not be setting up our booth until Saturday.

Hey John;

We never got the word that the show had been moved back a week
until we checked into the BLM Kiosk. We will probably miss you guys
and your LEDs. Will wind up heading west with someone else's products.
Haven't seen Dan or Teri as yet, but maybe today. Anyone have a set of
GPS coordinates for them? I have a friend that wants to see their
coach (as do I).
