Thanks Tom yes we will stay if they let us. Being I set my own hours , LOL I We were just afraid we were going to miss everyone after all this. Ed H set us straight on the other board. I am just glad I asked when things weren't matching up. Want to meet you and Tammy finally and the rest of the Busnuts that will be there.

As mentioned earlier, I am thinking about driving over for a day trip to meet some of the names here on the board. I understand that the GM rally is from the 15th to the 18th, and the RV show is after that. However, I wanted to try to find out when the majority of the guys here plan to be in Quartsite so that I will not miss meeting them. What dates do you plan to be there?

What is it Lin a 2 hr drive for you in the bus drive your bus then you can stop and visit the Flx guys at their rally in Joshua Tree they are fun group with some very special buses

Lin · December 30, 2014, 02:41:53 PM

Yeah, it's about a 2 hour drive. Is that Flx rally the one you mentioned going to last year at Joshua Lakes?

Yea but we never found it Jones gave me some bad directions it's worth the trip Larry is supposed to have his Stanley Steamer in the trailer this year at Quartzsite and Joshua I was told

Ed Hackenbruch · December 30, 2014, 02:51:36 PM

Lin, we will probably come up there on the 14th.

I'm guessing the Gillig Gathering is somewhat smaller than the others.

Clifford, if you had just shouted at me when you passes by I could have directed you there. They seem to have a lot of different things there through the year like a music festival, etc. It's actually called Joshua Tree Lake Campground. The lake is more like a little pond.

They have their rally at the Sportman's Club of Joshua Tree off 62 not far from 467 or what ever the hiway number is Jan 28th -Feb 1 I never did find the club

RJ · December 30, 2014, 06:16:19 PM

I'll be leaving Fresno/Clovis early on the 14th, and will depart either late Sunday the 18th or early Monday the 19th.

Lin · December 30, 2014, 09:52:47 PM

I don't know which highway you mean. There is a 247 in Yucca Valley, but that's about 7 miles away. The Sportsman's Club appears to be off 62 on Sunburst, just east of the town area.

Dave5Cs · December 30, 2014, 10:45:45 PM

RJ which way are you going?99, I-210, 10 or Bakersfield 58, 40 cal 95? and which is less steep grades?Grapevine is what 4100?

Dave5Cs · January 01, 2015, 11:12:52 AM

Hi Dave, happy new year to you and all the busnuts on the board. I hoping we'll have it in, when the brakes had to be replaced, couldnt afford the great generator Gary wanted to sell me, so bought a diesel, much lower KW, from craigslist, bus will be kinda made up just to go temporary, right now, plumbing, 12volt, fridge heat propane for it hopefully, and generator for 120AC hopefully. Hope it will all come together for quartzsite, boy do I need a vacation, getting to close to retirement, the short timer effect, tom...
