Dick,

That was me parked in the opposite direction. I parked this way to get two awnings to open together to provide a gathering place for the group. We were also spread out in the safari field, which defied a long shot of the whole group (which is a typical shot). When the rest of the pic's are posted, you will see the gathering area and the rest of the coaches.

I do agree however, that it did not do much for that picture to see the tail end of most of the coaches.

Cheri and I had an awesome time at the GTG.

Food was great, Canadian beer flowed all day (care of Don eh?), skies cooperated and a very special thanks to all the guys who pitched in to help me install the awning on the "man cave"!!

We have pictures that we will post soon too.

Jack, thanks so much for coming down and hanging with us, you make NH proud.

Rusty, thanks for setting up your amazing telescope and teaching me about the cosmos over brandy till all hours of the... er...morning. I did Google Astrophysicist Lisa Randall and you are right, she is hot!

Bill, your a great host and all around great guy.

To my wife and all the other wonderful cooks (this includes you again Bill) thanks for fattening me up with interesting and delicious vittles.

Thanks to Deborah for bringing the Barth-stream "Bubble" and becoming an honorary member of our gathering as well as being my wing-man to and back to NH.

Thanks also to the French guy from Maine who told me my water line was leaking like a sieve and helping me make it "more better"!

Just an awesome time from beginning to end. See you next year for sure.

It indeed was a great time!

Corey got me likkered up, but not so much as to overlook Lisa Randall - so now, one must look up Amy Mainzer and Joan Schmelz (Who, with her hubster, Gerrit Verschuur, do point-counterpoint presentations that are a blast).

An aside to Bill N Y, the issue with the dash air was that the tech replacing the master cylinder pinched the A/C clutch wire in the space between the booster and the master, and shorted the circuit out. I fixed this today, having misdiagnosed it at Oak Haven.

Interesting pictures. I am wondering why they are trying to set Bill G's rig on fire; is it because he is pointed the other way? D.

We would like to echo Corey and Cheri's appreciaton to everyone for making this such a great event. Bill and Richard did a great job as hosts and organzers, we had real quality, if not quantity in our participants. Truly an honour to meet evryone.
We renewed Site 11 for next year's event when we stopped in at the Oakhaven office to return our gate pass. So see you at the 2010 New England GTG!
