thanks to Jake and Bryan and everyone else involved with putting on this fun show. i'm glad the bathroom issue got worked out. the weather was decent for the most part (other than a few small patches of rain that lasted a few minutes) and the after show party was nice and low key, all the food was excellent! all in all, had a great time.

It was the way back.

Heading down it was terrible. Heading home it was annoying.

CTS was a blast! Too bad for the rain but it was still a good time. Wish I could of made it to the shop opening on Saturday. I had a good time on Fri though crashing at the shop. Thanks Jake and Bryan for letting people crash there and use the bathrooms. Met a lot of cool people this time Manny & his horse, Glenn, Nick, John, Victor and England AL. The greensboro boys of course and that lowslow or slowlow guy Very Happy Hey Glenn, you still got my file?

Geez, I didn't know the paint on Rob's Westy was water soluble:

Just got back an hour ago.
11:50 to get there, 12:15 to get home.
Lance's bus slowed us down by ten minutes, and it was 15 minutes fixing my shredded fanbelt on the way home.
Not bad.

The weather was great for the show, just a short shower.

A big, big Thank You to Bryan, Regina, Jake, and Missy.
Also, Thanks to Frank for the Chili, and the ice.
Fun weekend, great people, nice buses.

Those who don't go, don't know...

The Bama crew made it back alright.....almost.
Doug's Bus made it, but Jake's Westy transmission totally screwed up not far from the Alabama state line in Georgia. We had to leave him there for his dad to come with the truck and trailer (which we saw going up while we were going south)
Even with the problems. and the HORRIBLE weather in Georgia on the way home, awesome time once again at Transporter Show.
Put some more faces with forum names. Thanks to Jake, Bryan, Missy, Regina, e'rebody, and thanks to everyone who voted for my junk to win that award Cool

The pleasure is all mine, thanks for stopping in the middle of the storm to check on us Friday. My horse is a she and her name is Mystery, she was very pleased to meet you too.

The Monkey Nut crew really know how to put on a great show, before, during and after. Thanks again guys and like John said "Those that don't know, don't know." It was great seeing familiar faces and being introduced to new ones.
