I'm guessing the renting of a bus idea went out the window?

Why rent when you can own!

Hey guys. I've wanted to hit this event the last couple years and never made it. Last minute I'll be driving "Dusty" and pulling "Scratch" with me. I'm hoping to leave work a little early. I'm hoping at least. I guess I'll see who I see at the campgrounds. Looks like I'm going to be traveling through Gainesville and out on 20..... Hang a left at Hastings and cruise until I hit 95. Am I correct that the Flea Market is on the East Side of 95? If not someone give me a call today @ 352-281-4039 (Jerad like the Subway commercials...... just not as skinny). I'll have my cell on me all day. I'll be looking forward to seeing Kathy, Will, Mike, Travis, Chadd, Dave and Sandra. You all drive safe now. Hey is Eric coming with his gangster grill?

Sandra and I are leaving the house around 5 PM this afternoon. I adjusted the brakes on her bus after I replaced the rear passenger wheel cylinder. I got to the DRIVERS rear wheel and it wasn't spinning?? WTF? I took the drum off and all looked good. Put the drum back on and it seems fine. Don't know what the hell was going on. No play/movement in the stub so I said f*ck it and gonna roll.
I got about 1/2 the bus buffed, just ran out of time. Oh well, passenger side and the front look good.
I need a windsheild rubber, vent wing rubber for both sides, weatherstripping for the fried eggs, rivets for the vent wings too.
