Ray and I will be getting up @ 4am and heading to the front gate. We'll do what we can to block spots infront of the pioneer livestock building. Join us if you can.

We got stuck in traffic about a block from Ingersoll ave. It took about 30 minutes for their parade to go by. I was not happy!

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)

IvelDesigns, jce4isu, matt schlicht ... it was great meeting you and my wife and I definitely enjoyed the weekend. Beautiful weather (aside from Sunday)... counting down the days until 2011.

We hope that everyone made it safely back home.

Not many trucks in the video, but it gives you an idea what it was like.

A couple more pictures. Are the buckets the real deal or re-creations?

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)

I'm sorry I missed you guys too. This weekend was crazy busy. I only drove through Friday with the 40 because the corvette ate a supply pump. Saturday I was there but time went by too quickly with that booth. I did see Levi cruising around a couple times but never got over to their spot. I saw Ray's truck but didn't see him or his wife by it . Sunday I got there around 8:30 and scored a parking spot on Grand with both cars. I saw Joe but we were loading up and were heading back inside. Sunday was a bust for sure.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)

We were on the north wall at about the middle just down from the good guys merchandise area. It's Low Budget Diesel, and we had a fuel system display out in front.

It was nice meeting you! I hope you had a good time! I hope next year isn't as hectic.
