Mike (MikesRJ) meets the morning with a cup of coffee WildBill Pearson gets his cooler ready Coffee's brewing in the perulator Early morning in the show area As the day progressed and the show opened, people started arriving Brian's wife Jo sitting behind the Stainless Steel RJ Mike (MikesRJ), Steve (Stevasuarus), & John (Shallowwatersailer) gather in my tent. Wild Bill's wife inspects his white jeans in preparation for the parade A piece of art. Brian's (Buckrancher) Stainless Steel RJ with the new Stainless Steel deck. Brian, you are amazing. Jim T and Karen The kids all love the show. More kids driving around than adults. Some parade pictures Ray (Suburban_550), followed by Steve (Stevasuarus) and Wildbro make their way through the parade route. Back at camp at the end of the day Stevasuarus and Butch (sitting) I will have more pictures from Saturday after I get them sorted and edited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
