Indiana


I spent most of June and July in Indiana. I first went to the Batesville area and then to Indianapolis for the FMCA Convention. I was busy there helping cousins Jim & Pat with security.
After the convention, we went to Richmond, IN, for another rally. From Richmond, we drove to Dayton, Ohio, to visit the USAF Museum. I had been there years ago, but there is a new wing with Presidential planes which I had never seen.While in Richmond, I also went to a Model-T museum. I got to sit on this 1925 fire truck.
From Indiana, we drove back to Colorado Springs before going to Oklahoma City. We had to do some back-tracking as cousin Jim had to have cataract surgery in Colorado Springs. He claims to can see better now, so I guess I will have to watch myself.
Warmest regards, Gus

Route 66 Museum

I spent the weekend in Oklahoma City with family and friends celebrating my cousin Tom's 80th birthday. We had a great time catching up on things, eating, and on Saturday evening we all went to the Rodeo Opry.
Today, cousins Jim & Pat took me to the Route 66 Museum in Clinton, OK. In the top picture, I was helping the mechanic fix the old truck which was on display, and in the picture to the right, I checked out the old VW Hippie Van. In the other picture, I am wearing my new Route 66 t-shirt.
I will be heading back to Colorado Springs for a couple of weeks before going to Farmington, NM, for a rally.
Since the last post, I have been to Indianapolis, IN, for the FMCA Convention. I will try to write something about that trip soon.
Warmest regards, Gus
