We had a great time. I want to thank Randy, Steve, Ed, Jock and all the others for the time and effort that they put into putiing the rally on. It was great.
There were about 34 trucks from WC to W 300s. I saw my first belt pully, in fact 3 trucks had them. There were a lot of very nicely restored trucks and a lot of good iron. I enjoyed looking at what guys had done to their trucks. There was a short trail ride followed by some fun at the mud pit. Jock went in first to be followed by John E. Nither got too far the mud was deep and really thick. The only thing to make it across the mit was Maggi who is Jonas' dog.
I will try to make my pictures available soon.
The trip home yesterday was over 18 hours. I hit a strong headwind and at times a side wind going up the Central Valley of Calif. I have never seen such a strong and consistent wind over the many years that I have traveled that route. It was 40+ MPH. I thought my truck and camper was going to lay on it's side a couple of times near Sacramento.
