Homecoming 2017 is now in the books as the grandest, biggest and hopefully best Homecoming ... evVER!! If you couldn't make it, we hope these pictures convey a little bit of what it was like. Despite the rain, we had a grand time!! A lot of people to thank and I started to name folks, but my brain is fried and I can't put user names to quite evryone I can picture in my mind.... A truly outstanding weekend by a bunch of old truck guys who truly gave a lot to make sure this weekend just WORKED. You all humble me. Peggy says hey and she wishes she was able to hug you all. Enjoy the pics (thanks to Joe R, Hambone, Billy Marlow and everyone else who grabbed my camera). If you have some to share, let me know and I'll give you the link to upload. Thanks to the clean up crew -- Hambone, Chaz, Stingray and Freyja!

Sounds like a good time had by all and a little knowledge shared amongst the adult beverages. Jealous, but glad it went well.

And John, did I catch that your better half wasn't able to make an appearance? I hope it wasn't because she was under the weather. If so, I hope she gets better real soon. She is someone I would very much like to meet.
