Great time the night prior in Salem too.
25 plus vans in an ex-military ammo dump As if we are not already pushing the limits with these.
Good folks - some new faces too - good to see you all.
Thank you Stan

We had a great time. Campground was incredible...love the view right on the water. We biked into Salem and was blown away on all that was going on. The amount of people and tour buses was just insane. Weather was perfect for the show, huge turn out. Thanks Stan for all you did!!

Funny I was just telling someone that I did not do much in Salem due to the rain Saturday.
That was secret blessing, because I got to simply hang out - mainly in the comfort of Swisswesty's sweet van (thanks for the espresso!), and talk to people. And I did get that bike ride in late in the day.
Great to meet Harry, Randy (CrRrusty), Chris (Shano63), and others as well as well. It really is starting to feel like a big family of sorts with distant cousins you see few times a year, but have something in common with.
Happy trails! _________________ John - 86 Wolfsburg Westfalia "Weekender"

That's me! It was great driving up from Jersey and spend the weekend in such a cool place. Everyone is very nice and the kids had a blast, good to see old friends too. I still need to upload my pictures.
Stan, thanks for everything, you are the man.
