Hi all,

Steve VW sent me a PM expressing regrets that we did not make the Black Hills GTG. I thought that I had sent a post explaining that Karen & I had a last minute personal issue that prevented us from attending the GTG. However when I look back a my postings I can't find the post so I must have messed up. We mere very sorry that we could not make it, particularly after seeing Steve's great photos. We look forward to making a future GTG and meeting many of you fine Barthers.

Cheers,

Mike & Karen

Mike I have the same feeling, I would have loved to go to this GTG but the preparation to go to Alaska has taken all priority an d effort.

would you be around in a week or two, we will be going thru Seattle area on our way to AK. If you were available for a visit we would try to work that in.

It was a great time with good people. Even got to see Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse and the Custer National Forrest with an ample supply of buffalo right outside the door. (Pictures soon.)

Now it's on to Little Bighorn and Northern Montana to see more good friends. After that, Seattle and then down to southern Cal. I'll monitor the site to see if we can at least wave to Ed as he goes by.

We had a great time! cheers

Left Fri AM after the hailstorm, drove to Denver to see my sisters. 93 degrees just in time for Fri rush hour. (Took an hour for the last 25 miles...) head bang

1621 miles this trip so far on 1 qt oil. Fuel injection ran well, so far 6320 ft the highest point.

Here are a few more Barth photos:

Wow, other than the mention of hail, it looks like everyone had good travels, a chance to make wonderful new friendships and to enjoy a really great time! Smiler

Excellent photos!

We'll just keep on keepin' on and go for the next one. Tooling Along

We got home Monday afternoon, no issues with the Barth for the whole trip. 2000+ miles, a quart of oil. Tried to stay ahead of a storm front Monday morning early but caught the edge of it before breaking out. Enough of the hail already! 4 or 5 days in Nebraska/South Dakota area with some hail, mostly pea-size, but saw some up to ping-pong balls.

We really enjoyed meeting our fellow Barthmobilers at Custers Gulch and look forward to next time.

MAKE PLANS NOW FOR THE BRANSON, MISSOURI GTG IN SEPTEMBER!!!
