Fortunately the pieces are pretty much the same size so it was easy to fix.

Hey guys, I enjoyed meeting several of you last weekend. Great show and a great adventure getting there and back. Hope see you all again next year! (Or, let's see, Fulton is only 60 miles farther than Columbus. Who knows....)

Wish we could have had better weather for you but it was great to be able to attend and see everybody, and the static display - some really great stuff! It got my head spinning with all sorts of pipe dreams and possibilities. Getting to meet and put faces with names was good, and being able to say hi to all those who have helped with advise and even bits & pieces of parts needed was great.

Good to finally meet you and get to see your wagon Eric, and looking forward to catching you at Atterbury Barry. Wish WeeWilly, 67Charger and others from out HoosierWillys group could have made it but with all the pics and video clips it’s easy to see what a great time we had. Hope we can all get healthy enough to put another caravan together soon and make up for lost time.

I have a couple more pics from Saturday I want to share, just didn’t get to it all Friday so really grateful you were all able to stick it out despite gail force winds and hail. Thanks to all involved for not only getting this tradition up and running but for keeping it going.

Was great to attend, missed you guys but sounds like you are on a fantastic expedition. Are you back for Hueston Woods this weekend? I would like to take my 45 over but not real confident in getting into to much by myself because of health. Maybe WeeWilly and I should be teaming up so a couple old vets can help each other make it there and back!

Did anyone see Bob3b’s pics on FB, let me know where to find same, please.

I probably won't make Hueston woods, I have a lot of papers to write for my class.  It seems I always have something going on now when the jeep events are happening.

Thanks Bob.
Will miss you there school boy but you better get caught up so you can finish that degree. Probably post some pics so you won’t feel left out Andy, but then you’ve been there before as I recall.

Think I’ll just drive down for the day Bill. Friday looks pretty good but WunderWeather say 80% chance of rain Saturday.

Got three seats available if anyone wants to ride over.  http://www.mw-willysjeep.com

For anyone waiting for posters to be mailed out, I have them in my truck and will be mailing them today, along with t shirts for those who registered and could not make it.
