Title: Only 12 days till the Back to the Bricks Rally
Post by: Damn Yankee on August 01, 2009, 05:18:48 PM
That's Right, Only 12 days till the Back to the Bricks Rally in Clio Mi. I encourage everyone within driving distance to come, even if you just drive in for the day. Jack and Paula Conrad will be there in the Orange Blossom Special. A rally is a great place for noobies and wannabes to learn from the masters of our addiction.

Everybody is welcome and I hope to see you there.... :D

Paula & I are looking forward to the rally.  We plan to caravan to the Rally with Frank & Betty from the Sanford, MI area. Anyone else in that area that want to join us?   Jack

I would love to go but I just got out of the horsepistal yesterday and won't be traveling for at least a month, the rally is only about 500 miles from us too, coulda been a ustabe easy run.

I plan on making this rally.  My daughters birthday (13) is on the 14Th but it should work out.
I just wonder how many people might have books or Cd's for a 4905 and 8V71N. Wanted to give a heads up that I am looking to buy the manuals I need. Hopefully this will give those who have them a chance to bring them.  Sounds like a great chance to meet so many from the group.

I will be 4 wheeling to this fine rally.

Two great clubs together Converted Coach Owners, and Great Lakes Converted Coaches.

I am time strapped for major bus work, but sufficiently available to attend.

If I can 4 wheel, what about the rest of you?

Who else is going?

happy coaching!

Bus Warrior may have almost talked me into it, at least me and libby are discussing possible ways we may be able to go, after the past year it would be good to get out and about a little, BW can be pretty persuasive for a canadian lol.  If we can tho I've got to hump it on the bus getting it ready to roll but like I said, we'll see.

John, I'm trying to see if I can, the bus is still torn apart from all the new work, remember, I had the bays all redone, most of that stuff is still in a pile in jamies garage, I also ripped into the interior and we all know that buses have to be finished before we can use them, right? lol well, anyway, I'm trying cause so many great people are going to be there and the past year was pure helll in a lot of ways, I'd really like to go if I can.  I might even get to meet up with pauls windows again or see them go by lol.  All I can say is that I'm trying to figure out if I can so we'll see, i should know more after a couple of long days whacking the bus together and checking between the couch cushions for lost change and the tv remote lol.

I tryed, the doc said nope, no way, absolutely not, he said the tube that is keeping my left lung drained is too prone to an infection and that would finish me off so I can't go, but on the brighter side I'm thinking with some duct tape and a new years eve kind of horn I can use the tube and make a duck call.

oh poop.

Well, probably best to follow the Doc's advice.

If you piss him off, he might not try as hard to save you next time...

We'll get the universe aligned another time!

happy coaching!
