At the first rally we did the Scenic Cruiser to GraceLand, the Flxible from there to the lunch site, and the 4104 back to the rally.....a 3fer!

Tom are you at the rally? We were going to go but just to far for us.

lvmci · September 27, 2019, 06:40:07 PM

Hi Dave! Yes more than 1700 miles, just wanted to do it, wish you two were here, tom...

Tom good for you. That's why we did Indiana. If you have time go to Benton, AR and see the Crystal Bridges museum you would love it. With glass displays through the forest as well as art displays and building designs. Have fun Buddy

We had a bus parade around downtown Blythesville today, a fun little jaunt around a mile and a half or 2, lvmci...

The rally probably helps that town it has been dying for years,I sent a crew there to do some work at a air craft engine rebuilding plant and it was a battle to get my people to go back

If you went to the rally by bus, please post a picture of your bus or position in the bus parade that is on the bus grease monkey youtube channel?

I have a Prevost and noticed one in the parade but it is newer than mine. Still learning to tell them apart.

Freds -
Tom's bus is the white MCI that says "The Italian Greyhound" on the side. You can clearly see it in the video.

There were 34 buses in the parade: BlueBird (1), Eagle 01 (1), Flxible (2), GMC (24), MCI (4), and one Prevost XL.

Looks like a good time was had by all. . .

I hope to do that some day glad Tom Italian Greyhound and Mike plus all the others that made it. That was quite a sight.
