I am sitting here watching the various New Years celebrations around North America and thinking about the great times I had this past year associating with all of the GMCers at the various rallies I attended. Here are some of them:
Bean Station, TN - Dixielanders - Al and Martie Samsel
Hamilton, OH - The Millers
Dothan, Alabama - GMCMI
Americus, GA - Ken Henderson and his Aunt
Pueblo, CO - GMCMI
Elkhart,IN - GMC Eastern States
Port Costa, CA - GMC 49ers
Lexington, KY - Eastern States - I did not stay for this one but I did pick up a truckload Eastern States stuff in Birmingham, AL and deliver it for the Lexington rally.
It was a mix of GMC club and non-club sponsored functions. All were just great and all were different in their own way from each other. Some of the clubs I belong to and some not. It made no difference member or not I was welcomed at all of the functions.
To some rallies I took my coach, some I took my Blazer or my Colorado pickup. At one I brought an SOB that I was transporting for someone else. It made no difference how I got there or what vehicle I used I was still welcomed by all.
At one rally I stayed with Roger Black as his "wife". At one rally I stayed with Chuck Boyd for a few days and at a local motel for the others.
All I want to say is thank you GMCers for your camaraderie and for all you have done for Laurie and me. If I started a list of names to thank I would forget someone and it probably would exceed the maximum message length on this forum.
So Thanks GMCers (and the vendors who support us). We really appreciate everything.
Have a prosperous and healthy 2010.
