The show staff will be on the lookout for any "wardrobe malfunctions".

Bumping this thread since the show date is (sort of) approaching. Don't want it lost in the shuffle.

Getting excited for Salem! My favorite place to visit, and a sweet little town to host our campout. I'm heading up Wednesday - as usual. Doing some exploring before campers start to arrive.
For those who haven't been to Winter Island before, we pack in TIGHT. There's not really room for awnings, side shades, or tents. In order to fit everyone we generally have to park buses about 3-4 feet apart.
Don't forget the Sunday morning caravan! Plan to be rolling out at 8 am (subject to change as date gets closer!) The group trip last year worked great, we've refined our route and with two "stops" and some patience from all bus pilots we made it out to the highway and into the show together!
Looking forward to seeing everyone!

we'll be coming in during daylight saturday, unlike last time when we came thru the heart (soul) of Salem on a dark saturday night full of witching tourists.. not getting caught in that again after a long drive all day.

100% undoubtably the best way to get to Salem without adding to the stresses of traffic is to arrive early!

If anyone has a clean valve cover for a 2.0 in-line ABA motor, I'm interested.
Sick of sanding and prepping rusty parts.
