For the first time ever, I am attending the world famous Bean Station rally.
I am posting pictures to my website:
http://www.palmbeachgmc.com/rally/Bean%20Station%202014/album/index.html
There are some technical issues on the page that I don't have time to resolve.
Hope you find some of the pictures interesting.

Dan,
I can see why you enjoy going to Bean Station. We will look forward to seeing you here next year.
I'll put more photos up each day.

I put some more pics up, including some of the business meeting.
It got pretty cold last night, low of about 42, which surprised me since I went south from Michigan for warmer weather. It's sunny and cool now. Long story about the coach (involving 2 others)that's still in the shed since the day I got here.
This link start at the newest photos.

Thanks for the great photos. I sure wish we were there. I had a previously scheduled trip to the frozen north...Minnesota. It's been rainy and cold all week until today. Still only in the 50's but at least its not raining.

G'day, Looks like the guys at Bean Station are enjoying what "we" do best - FIX STUFF! Some comments:
Chuck, what do you need a claw hammer for when bleeding the brakes with Jim Hupy's pressure bleeder?
Ken, I can understand that you're discussing wheel alignment but what do the three dotted lines represent? I can read the narrow side of the ride height block, what's written on the wide side that's made you smile?

Rob.. the bleeder is also for the big MC so the cables are kinda long for the stock mc. So a hammer handle makes a handy spacer.

Rich, thanks so much for the new "people" pictures. Nice to see some that I have not seen in years. Rick Denney seems to have made the trip. Lots of good information being swapped among friends.

I put up some more pictures today. I tried to get more "people" pics, but ended up helping Chuck Boyd refurbish my steering column which was more involved than I had imagined. Combining a GMC steering with a Cadillac steering column is more involved than it looks. But Chuck has it figured out. We got it back in, but I still have to get the turn signals to work before I drive home.
We were also distracted by the FLEA MARKET, where I bought quite a bit of "stuff". The breakfast photos are a big foggy because of condensation on my lens. They should at least give everyone an idea of what the room is like where breakfast is served.
