First time I can ever remember no one posting anything about the Bean Station rally. Especially missing Dan Gregg's pictures. Kept us working stiffs in the loop.

I was there Thursday afternoon till Saturday afternoon. Another great Bean Station rally. Great folks, great food. Probably 25-30 coaches but I didn't get a count. Weather was nice. Drizzled a bit on Friday but nothing that stopped anyone from doing anything. I didn't take any photos other than of Stick Miller after he asked us to take photos for the newsletter. Being the smart ass that I am, I proceeded to take about 10 photos of Stick. Twisted Evil

During the business meeting (Dixielanders), it was announced that there would be a rally in 2016.

It was, as always, a great rally. We have lots of pictures and lots of stories to tell. There are even several shots of me in the pit greasing my $&^#$@ Wallace Hubs. Chuck Boyd won a full year paid up membership in the GMC Dixielanders (courtesy of me) for finding the Zerks.

We had a little rain, and a little cool weather. Lots of work got done, lots of food got eaten, lots of lies got told and, at speaking for the Millers only, a lot of wine was consumed.

I'll try to put up some pictures when I figure out how to do it. They will eventually wind up on the "Dixielanders" website.

I didn't take any pics this time. My $50 quad copter took some video, but watching them requires sea sick pills. I have already upgraded to a GPS enabled, 1080P camera with stabilization and wifi feed to my iPhone to see where I am going. Be here tomorrow. Too late for Bean Station, but maybe they will let me take aerial videos at the next GMCMI rally. Sadly it cost way more then 10x the cost of the week old $50 quad copter.
