Well, the GMCMI rally is over and a very good one it was.

What's next?.

The next two things for me are the GMC Fall Work Rally and the Ft. Wayne hamfest.

After looking at everyone's schedule and local things going on like the Covered Bridge Festival, we finalized the Fall Work Rally date to be the days leading up to and the week end of October 23 and 24. The location will be at Blaine and Diane Merrell's Way West Air Park in Bainbridge, Indiana.

Most of the local annual attendees have already been notified of the date. I am making this announcement in case we missed anyone. So send me, Blaine Merrell, or Bob Burkitt a note if you plan on attending for a day, two days, three days, or more..

Come visit us and bring your GMC to work on. You bring your projects and work on them. Others will assist if necessary.

Some of the facilities available are Blaine's "Florida Room" (66 degrees year round) with 4 post hoist, several additional indoor work areas, a tire truing machine, and lots of tools.

If you pull the tires, (I'll bring my long reach jack) I will help you with the use of the truing machine which I affectionately call "Blaine's tire shredder". I did all 6 of my wheels several years ago.

I plan on helping Blaine install body isolators on one of his coaches. I may be installing some side windows in mine.

For you pilots who might just wish to stop by, Way West Airpark (50II) has 3800 feet (9-27) of the best grass I have ever landed on. The strip ends in front of Blaine's front door.

If I do not bring my coach I'll fly in.

So come on over and visit or stay for a couple of days. It is all very informal. Bring whatever food you want. Grill out side if you desire. Feel free to bring your spouse. We would enjoy the company.

I'm sure Blaine will have his usual assortment of wind wings, trailer hitches, radiator guards, etc. If you want one I would call Blaine ahead of time so he does not sell yours to someone else.

Way West Air Park is approximately 1/2 mile north of US 36 on Putnam County Road 500E. This is 2 or 3 miles east of the town of Bainbridge.

The address is:
101 Way West Air Park.
Bainbridge, Indiana 46105

Note: Some Microsoft S&T data bases have it listed as "Way West Air Pork" Also Microsoft S&T positions you on the wrong end of the runway. Blaine and Diane are located on the WEST end of the air park. You can not miss it when you arrive, Just look for first house on the west end with all of the GMCs.

I expect to have Dan there taking pictures as usual.

I'm trying to convince Chuck Boyd to show up. It is a 375 mile trip for him.

Oh yes, there is free WiFi available
