NW Board Monroe Meet

[stllookn]

One day of sun and one of rain. Many parts were traded, sold and resold again. Burgers, brats, chicken, potato salad, Starbucks, Krispy Kreme, beer and jalapino Montery Jack were consumed. It was a great time and many new friends were made, stories told and company enjoyed.

Thanks to ETsC10 for the great chicken and potato salad, Billa for buying and bringing all the food and Capt Kneivel for bringing all the utensils. It was a wonderful weekend to hang around with a great bunch or truck enthusiasts.

[cstm68]

sorry i didnt say hi but i walked by and didnt realize you guys were the board members

[stllookn]

Next time we will have to put up a BIG sign...LOL! There was mention of that but this was a trial run. We will do this again this summer.

[e rock]

I couldn't make it there until 1:30 or 2:00 today and the place was 90% empty. Would've been nice to meet a few people, but right now the time is better spent getting my junk running. Maybe tomorrow - stupid rain...

I'm in the middle of selling my little house and buying a bigger one, so hopefully next time I can offer a bed (or floor space) to those coming from out of town.
