Great Western Loop

Apologies to all who hate the "come on over and watch a slide show from our summer vacation" kind of invite, so be forewarned!

The trip:
1. start with the 4CU Maintenance Rally
2. then go to Port Townsend to check out and buy a kayak
3. then see how much you can fit in, in between.

Getting to the rally was a trip in and of itself, leaving the home locale and Pikes Peak, then passing through Taos on the way to Albuquerque

The rally was excellent. I don't know who came the farthest, but Levon always competes for that honor, as well as bringing his polishing expertise and his special "refreshments"

Much of the rally happened in the "big tent" with excellent lectures and almost continuous work on UWE's Area 51 trailer. I didn't get to spend much time in there, but whenever I went in, it seemed that Kip and Brad were hard at work

And there were lots of things to see and people to chat up in the RV park, too--ARTSTREAM was easy to find

for those who don't want to suffer the whole show, skip on down to see DOORGUNNER, AEROWOOD, and a few shots of kayaks...
