It's because they're on facebook and you don't have the permissions set for everyone to view them |

Hmmm...maybe it's just me. It still won't work. OTOH maybe that link isn't good anymore and the public setting uses a different WA. _________________

It was great meeting all of you!! The Southwest has alot to learn from the shows on the East Coast. I saw some killer buses and picked up some much needed parts. What a great shop tour after the show!! I never thought I could drink that many Monster Energy drinks. _________________ 62 Standard Type 2 (Nothing Fancy)

I made it home safe and sound with over 1,000 trouble free miles on the first long trip in my Bus.
Everything was just perfect. I was reminded this year why I was so bummed to miss CTS last year.
The new location was awesome and made the show even better.
Thanks again to everyone at Monkeynut for putting on one of my favorite events.
I enjoyed going to Farmington afterwards just because it gave me some more time to hang with people I don't see enough of. I hope that works out next year too. _________________ All he needed was a wheel in his hand and four on the road.

we finally made it home at about 7 pm today, easy driving today again, we hit some bad weather and some traffic, but it was cool, other than the transmission mount problem Friday, and the non working starter since early today we had a trouble free trip round trip.
Once again thanks to everyone involved making this a successful weekend, we had a blast.
here are some pictures

| This was my first CTS but certainly won't be my last. I had a great time and met a lot of great new friends. Thanks to all who put it together. Convoying down with Manny and Glenn A was a blast as well. We all had a few hiccups on the road but worked through them like pros. I can't wait until next year. |
