I think they said just under a hundred buses. This part of the fairgrounds is by far my favorite spot for a show - with shade trees, grass, real restrooms and lots of buses!

Thank you to all that attended, many said it was the best one yet. I know Damon and Rosie left happy, they won the safari windows from Honest Engine.

Thanks Dave, Great seeing you again.

Love the venue, loved the people even more. An excellent and mellow crowd this year.

Let's work on a beer permit for next year. Smile

First Busfest since it left Vallejo, the new site is great. Cool show with an old school feel, thanks for the effort Dave.

The dog perched all day on the top of the drivers seat looked like he knew with confidence that his ride was badass. Yes, my friend, it is indeed!

Exclamation Wow Exclamation

Al, that is fantastic and very generous, and will make for an excellent grand prize for the raffle on Sunday. Someone is going home from Bus Fest with a new set of safari windows!

A very special thank you in advance to Al Price/Honest Engine Midtown Sacramento.

See you in a few days and the new bus looks great.
