Teri and I geocached and yard saled the back roads east of the Mississippi River yesterday and today. Just pulled the GMC and bug into one of the biggest VW shows in the USA. Mid America Motorworks in Effingham is putting this on. Wow 15 bux for 3 nites camping and all the pictures we can take.
Life is good in a GMC motorhome.

Mid-America used to also sponsor a Porsche show back when they also handled Porsche parts, and it was always a gas! I hope the weather holds up for you so you can enjoy the weekend. I love his garage/showroom/full-sized diorama as well!
Don't you wish you had that much room to play with your toys?

Oh no, nothing like your's Rob. I just put that picture in there for you. You have a nice one.
I bought new carpet and mats for our's today. Now, the headliner is the only thing we have left.
These folks do like the GMC. Some stop and ask what year, I think they are talking about the bug, nope, the GMC.
