2011 - The Seventh Annual Stovebolt Reunion in Kansas City (MO)

We do have some great photos in the Bolt Bucket for the weekend of the 2011 Reunion. Just one batch. Got more that I'll load in here, since I've got "story" to share this time.


Maybe some of you can pick an image or two or three from these and explain what's happening or who's who. I see a bunch of friendly faces and familiar trucks!



This was an interesting year. More on that as part of the tale. A hint:
see the rainbow trucks?
I have some notes I guess I saved to hopefully get a Hot Wash done; maybe even a web page. (Haven't found any of that yet ... just these notes that I'll add.)


Looks like a nice turnout again. Got that group picture in here for starters. And another year for the purple shirts but by this time, we had some t-shirt offerings in the Hoo-ya Shoppe. Had a fun variety there and they showed up over the weekend.

John made a 7th year logo (image below) so, we took t-shirt orders. thumbs_up Having Carol "Husker" Levanger helping me, made it so much easier to track of things. (She even made a database ... who posted they were coming when - Th, Fr, Sa, Sun, and those needing t's.) The day of the show, she helped take pictures for us (see a few images of Husker below).

One of my favorite photos was the HUGE American Flag, flying high in the extended ladder of the fire engine.

Anyone who wants to post comments, remembrances, or photos from 2011, please do. Or earlier years ... see the four years already set up: 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and this one.

Thanks,
Peg

Husker learning a few things about John's camera. She did a great job getting pictures for us. She was able to scoot all about the place.

A huge American flag that could be seen all over the field ... and probably then some. Remembering 9-11. One of my favorite shots.
