Event this weekend.

May 14th, 2008.

Dear Mr. McConnell:

We'll both be busy this weekend, you with your event in Michigan, and us with the "To Defend and Protect" event here in Paris, TX. Good luck with yours, and are you going to mount the yellow headlamps on your 8th GP truck???? By comparison, my M35A2 look rather tame without winch and without armament in Desert Tan.....

Have a good one,

Regards,

Kyle F. McGrogan

It was ok, got some pics that I'll have to get off of my uncle's camera. There were about 10 trucks there.

I'm planning on going to the midland gathering on the 31st for sure, you gonna make that one?

Looks good guys! Seemed to be well organized and nice display of trucks.. I went to the Findlay show but was unable to take any OD iron.. Fuel was to much and it still took me 7 hours to get there in my GMC... Again..
NICE JOB ! Way to make a good showing..

Hey Lane, At the Great Lakes hobby show we were discussing various trailers that we would like to own and your name did pop up as a connoisseur of all things trailer. So if your ears were burning, it was us. So how was Findlay?

 

[citizensoldier]

Findlay was good.. Seemed like fewer vendors but we all found some goodies.. They had some very rare vehicles this year though..
So what type of trailers you guys after? I knew someone in the world was bad mouthing me when my ears were burning.. Did you ever get a ammo trailer?

 

[peecook]

nice diverse show, thanks for the pics.

 

[Dave_McConnell]

No ammo trailer yet, just still talking about one.
