I just finished fixing the links for (and updated some info) to
Cletis' report on the 2007 Reunion.
What? Are you crazy? Travel 1,200 miles in a 51-year old truck?
It was fun to read it after all this time. He had fun details about getting from Parker County Texas to Kansas City. Not without problems.
"In 2006, I towed my truck to the Midwest All-truck Nationals in Riverside, Missouri. Where’s the adventure in that? Laid back, CD blasting, AC cooling, cruise control set, Powerstroke diesel purring. My buddy, Joker, was cruising right with me in his 1952 Chevy truck with the 235 purring, window down, straining to hear the CD over the highway noise, getting a trucker tan on one arm. And he had a bigger grin on his face than I did.
Here's Joker kissing Red Ryder upon our arrival in KC that year."
You'll have to read the rest, complete with pictures.
So, wow, 2007 was a year of firsts!Have to stop here since pulling on one string has pulled out more neat stuff, securely left in boxes in the garage. Stay tuned while I sort the next batch out. Hint: the purple!
