I hope everyone enjoyed the pictures. Maybe some of the others posted a few for you. We have ice cream tonight so I may be finished with picture taking for this convention.
This has been a great get together. Everyone, but one old man, has just been a joy to be around. A good bit of coach work has taken place here. My compressor problem turned out not to be a compressor problem. Did not figure that out til I had taken my good one off and replaced it. So, I plugged the holes and will hang onto it in case this one ever dies. I actually liked the old one better but that may be in "my head". Ken Burton just kept on my problem like a bulldog tearing up a hamhock. He solved it and we have air again coming from the dash.
We had some local folks here. The pretty pink or puple swirled coach is from Hammond. BJ was very interesting to visit with, the owner of that coach.
It seems that as I age I appreciate these conventions more. The volunteer work that goes into these things is staggering. It is worth taking a week off work to make one of these, as severl do. By having them during the week working folks have 2 weekends to travel which is better for those living 500 miles or more away. The weekend stuff is only good if there are locals, which are normally few.
Anyway, life has been really good at this convention. If you have not yet made one, do some planning and come while you can. We never know what is around the corner in our lives. Teri and I have enjoyed every convention and hope to keep doing so for years to come.
We will see you when you get here.
