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!!

Likely that was the bride for a wedding at the museum later in the day.
Thanks for the pix, everyone

Anybody going to the Lee, NH swap meet Sun Oct. 19th? I plan to.

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!

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.
