The HulaHooping was amazing fun. As soon as I started hoopin', I was XZAAAPPPPed right back into the sixties. :cheers: Thanks, Paige!

You are soooooo welcome! =D>
It moves me to see people smile when I hand them that giant circle. I do believe I've found the bliss I'm suppose to follow.
Well, that and driving MZ. :flower:

No pix yet but had to chime in.

Great fun. Didn't realize I was up so early....Sorry if I woke anyone. ('Ceptin' Hammie, he needs mornin' cheer :geek: )

I had Morningwood both days at Maupin. Delicious. In fact every morning since then I am reminded of the goodness of Morningwood...

The beer tasting was hoptacular....

Good to meet all the IAC'ers, see old and make new friends.

I was really happy to see all the kids runnin' round. Tis truly rejuvinating to look out over a field of unabashed glee flitting about. Throw in a jumping dog, a herd of hulahoopers, and a gaggle of beer tasters and you have the RendezVW.

Jolly good time.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

Just read all the posts. Looks like a good time. I'll have to convince Chi to road trip with me next year if I can get the time off.

Not sure what happened but it looks like I caught hell for something and was paying the price of a good ribbing =D> :

And finally, some shots of our host putting the 78 thru the paces. I told him to go out and kill it, but the bus just drives too nice to be that mean to it :geek:

For the FI folks out there...once you have the ears and eyes for this trick you will never forget it.

Life doesn't suck with views like these:

Exhaust temps around the ports about 650*

Thanks for a GREAT weekend folks. I feel bad that I didn't get to talk to some of you more, seems like the weekend FLEW by. I would need at least a week there to catch up with friends.

Safe travels and may this shot mean that something is NOT wrong:

Sorry.. couldn't resist.
