after the bad lands and going threw the Prairie Homestead the prairie dog was there we went over to the missile national park I had not been into the new building and sorry to say I was disappointed. they had better info at the air and space museum just outside of Ellsworth. it almost acts like the park service feels they got stuck with it and Tusegout Az is now not the worse place to work
but that's was me then to wall drug. and back home for the board meeting.

big thing at the board meeting was the presentation of the request of change in our exclusion of vans and type 1-2-3 ambulances the decision on this was tabled to the fling board meeting to get a chance for input from the membership.

then the next day our first stop was the Mammoth site and lunch at Wooll's

nothing but fun during the dinner. we had a live performance by the spearfish group from the Mathews opera house to set the mood of the evening. they were willing to work for supper. so they went to the front of the line. we had a number of thing donated for raffle and every lul we gave something away including the car. i did not win. not that I would have taken it if my name was drawn. then just like that it's over with and we out of here final sleep in ths morning.

I do want to thank the people that helped no one turned me down when asked to do a little something. the Karsinas had the administrative side of the meet and it went smooth when I stayed out of it. the Hill sell themselves my job was easy. all I had to do was stand up and lie to people that could not check facts. Billy the driver would trip me up a time or two but between the two of us we got the info out. i was able to give my cars away for the week. so Kandy and I road around in the pick up. nice seeing other people enjoy the cars. so thanks to everyone that came out enjoyed showing everyone about and being with you. see you again in New York
