I have uploaded a bunch of my own photos and will be adding more as the week goes on. They are at http://gmcws.org/blog/?p=2715. Notable is the photo of Manny T. with his planned diesel upgrade kit engine so we can convert those old gas hogs into a modern diesel with a drop-in kit. Details will be coming along soon.

Nice pictures, thanks.

I even could name more than a couple people and recognised a few more, just couldn't name them. Hopefully we'll be at and be able to see some (most?) people/coaches at the TI rally one week later.

I hope we don't have to go to the Diesel engine but I loved your photos. Been a long time since I have seen many of those folks.

Armand,

Great photos!

You must be having fun, you've got the proverbial ear to ear smile in your photo.

From his photo it appears that JerryW is Italian, note his hands.

Once AGAIN Manny comes up with something to help keep these old gals on the road! I sure hope that diesel is quieter than HIS. ;-)

Looks like JimB has turned back the clock and become a hippie (long hair) like ME.

Hey, JimK is wearing the same shirt and shorts he wore at Chippewa Falls, sure hope for you guys sake he changed his undies.

I see ChuckG didn't rely on his GPS to find the rally site 'cause he did find it and not wind up in the woods.

I am having fun. You know what GMCWS rallies are like and as you can see this one is no different. This is supposed to be fun isn't it? Did you mean Jerry Workoroni? Yes, I think he may be Italian. I will make sure that Manny's details get out ASAP but that is not like Manny's current engine although he is about to install it in his coach. He tried to get it installed for this rally but just missed due to a small detail at the last minute. It is about the same engine as Marc H. and Bill H. are using but will be set up for our application. Yes, Jim B. is relaxing - are you? I think JimK has changed clothes - I had breakfast with him this morning and I could smell the coffee. Chuck made it - not many woods around here.
