I had a great time. I never got to attend a convention in my previous ownership years.
Got to meet Emery, Ken B, Jim K...got to see others I knew. Dan and Teri, my old boss Don Denesia (and Angenette), their pals the Whites and the Glenna's, my fellow Flatlanders the Van Winkles and Kanels (Max hauled my Dad's Brake Buddy to the swap meet for me, thanks). Did NOT get to meet Rob Mueller but wanted to. Next time. I enjoyed the Pine Block Derby and hope to compete in the Fall. I wished I could have been there the whole time but that is how it is. Marc Hogenboom was my neighbor and I hope he got his oil leak resolved. I had my friends from Yukon (Richard Sillivan and his wife Chris) come over to see the "goings on". Richard is a retired....twice retired actually.....FAA Air Traffic Controller and fellow aviator. I think I got Richards glands flared up when he saw all of the great coaches.).
I had no issues with my coach, 7.7 mpg average, just like I remember from my Palm Beach days.
I hope to bring my wife, Dellene, to Iowa in the fall. Thanks to all that work so hard to put all of that together.
