Nothing better than sharing a sunrise on the water with good friends! We wish we could be there, too. Say hello to Ewankiws and Jacobsons for us.

We have a bunch of GMCing coming up so it will be a busy summer. Graduations for both a college granddaughter and a high school grandson (both 1000+ mile jaunts), a gathering of old friends in Spokane, WA (~1500 miles), the river cruise in Europe with the GMC group, and just yesterday Sharon said she thought we would have time to get to GMCMI in S. Dakota (3000+ miles) after we get back from Europe! So, that means somewhere around 6000 GMC miles coming up. What fun.

Thanks for pointing out a good fact, Jerry. Some of my early plates were
made of thicker material than the current ones are. The thinner plates do
not present as big a problem as the thick material. I believe that there
are some differences in the master cylinder support brace gusset that
protrudes forward and interferes with the top plate moving back. I will
address these differences in my future instruction sheets. I have a couple
of customer coaches with similar symptoms as those you describe. I'm gonna
check on their distribution valves the next time i see them. Presently
sitting at the Marina RV park in Port Towndsend, Wa. Spectacular sunrise
greets us presently. Here with Gene and Diana Ewankiw and Dwayne and Sharon
Jacobson. After a leisure breakfast, we will fire up the GMC's and head for
the rally at Port Angeles, Wa. About an hour away or so. Good times. Wish
that you and Sharon were with us.
