We just arrived home from the rally. I have not been to as many rally's as some, but I think this was probably the best one I have ever attended. Gary, and Gloria went above and beyond on every aspect! We toured the Jack Daniel distillary and had lunch at a great little diner. The next day we toured the Beechcraft museam and had a great lunch there. Our dinner gathering was bbq one night. Saturday night was a full sit down meal complete with chef, servers, music and desert!! We had about every brand of bus, Eagle, Prevost, GM, Flxible, Neoplan, Freightliner, as well as several factory coaches and campers. Each morning started with fresh dounuts, and coffee, with happy hour starting at four P.M. This also included finger foods, and fresh shrimp.

Trouble in progress!!

We had several who just purchased buses that came also. One couple Ron, and Lisa flew to Ca. and drove their 1985 Eagle 10 bus back to FL. As they are the adventurist type they hoped on their Road King and rode 550 miles to join the party. Wayne and Charlene brought their camper. They are working on an eagle 15. We had some that came for the day also. Bob Glines was one. All in all it was ONE FINE PARTY!! Gary announced the last night that he didn't think he could put it on again because of the enormous effort required. That was disappointing to all!! Hopefully some will pitch in and get him back on board!! He was one hell of a great rally master!!!
