I dunno why. It's working for me. I am slowly adding more photos in there as the day goes on, so maybe check back after a while.

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.

Thanks for posting up the pics Paul! My two little girls had their first dance performance at CCU this past weekend and so I couldnt make it up to Charlotte or Farmington.

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.

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

Really enjoyed CTS (really like the new venue) and the hospitality at Monkeynut Friday! You have a really great community going, thanks to Paul & Mary, Gary, Jake, Brian, Colby, Chris, and many others who made me feel welcome, even though I don't have a bus... at the moment. Pedro

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.
