Oh wow, can't wait. When we bought our gmc we knew nothing about the conventions. We found out through Arch and decided to attend one in Michigan. We are what you might call "sociable" and we had an absolute ball. That was in Sept. 06 just after I retired. Have only missed one since. This one was "shaky" for us but after getting good reports from my scans last week the doctor told us to plan to be there. Jim and Theresa Dahl have bought a different coach. They had planned to have their gmc in the parking lot for sale while they sleep in the newer coach. Well, they say we can put that coach in vendor row, next to Jim, and sleep in it during the convention. That let's us drive the car to Tx. We have known this couple for a long time. We appreciate them doing this for us. For Sale signs will be on it so come by and take a few looks. I know it has a new paint job.
We hope to see a large group of our friends at the convention in March. If you are a sociable person who loves learning about gmc s then this is the place for you.
See you there.

Dan,
I will be looking forward to meeting you, Teri and all of the others as
this will be our first convention. I will have a pick-up trailer of GMC
parts from Jim Brown of the GMC Mountainaires group who passed away last
August.
Unfortunately we won't arrive until Sunday afternoon.
Until then!

I'm in an absolute thrash to get ready. Took much too big a bite of the project bug over the winter. Carolyn isn't thrilled that everything isn't done but it will be before we leave.
Really looking forward to seeing everyone again...and a bunch of new folks.

You do not know Dan's driving. He will do it on one day. 100 mph and 7.5 hours later he will be there. Or if he slows down 75 mph, 10 hours later he will be there.

Kerry,
We have had people show up at rallies with no interior at all, an air mattress on the floor and a camp stove..... BUT THEY MADE IT!!!

Hi, Dan.
So is this a "gentle hint" to double up on your M&M's supply from Kingsland? LOL.
Lanny B. coming tomorrow for a few days. Will give him regards from you, but I'm sure he will finish the supply here. Not to worry, HEB is nearby. :)
Mike & I will see y'all soon.

Ok, great Bruce. Make sure you let me know who you are. We have an absolute blast at these gatherings. See you there. Even though I seem to have lost my appetite for ice cream we will be serving. I think my love for m&m's candy has doubled.
John, see you this Fall. Maybe you can stay longer in Wisconsin than you normally stay.

Kerry, are you going to follow any of the trace down with eastern states?...

Probably not. Current plans are go head South to Pensacola and caravan down I10 with Ken H and Hubert Rowell.

Dan,
Think of yourself as fortunate. Since the radiation got to my taste buds, I
don't like anything very sweet. The wife got a BIG bag of M&Ms to try to
get some of the weight I lost back. Didn't work.
I now do eat ice cream if offered, but I don't have any late nite snacks.
There are some advantages. I don't have to open doors, I just turn sideways
and slide through the crack. LOL
Hang in there, you'll just keep getting better.

Well Billy, I may have to stash a few m&m's behind the ice cream. I have to
be careful with any sweets. Cancer patients must go lightly. I am consuming
lots of raw brockley and dip right now. If I do good I get rewarded. Dark
chocolates are really good.
Can't wait to see you. Your man was loose and a little wild in Branson. I
don't expect any of that in Montgomery. :d
