It was nice meeting many of you today.
My only suggestion for next year would be to not have the OMVA in that spot. Between the concession truck and the ditch, many people didn't know how to get into the clearing. I'll bring the Gama Goat up next year. Ryan.

Ryan at first we didn't think it was the perfect spot either but the simple explanation is that with that location we can come and go as we want with the vehicles. The museum would like the only movement within the grounds be restricted between 9:00am and 5:00 pm. We must also remember that we are there as their guests. I concur with Don that Terry did a great job with the organization and set up. The tent and unlimited bottled water that Les provided
sure made a scorcher of a day more comfortable. Thanks to all the OMVA members who brought vehicles and thanks to all the others who just stopped by for conversation and to get out of the heat. Barry |

Thanks again to all who made it such an enjoyable weekend. I had a great time being there on the Saturday.
To echo Ryan's comments I too feel that the ditch made a big barrier for many people to get in and see our stuff. Maybe the club could ask the museum for the spot where they had a cab12 c15a and C60 parked. It was basically kiddy corner to us and if members had to leave it would be a simple down the road to the same entrance we used. All day long I kept hearing rumours the Brian Gough was eyeing up the 10cwt trailer I brought to the show. Lo and behold I returned in time see him backing his jeep up to the trailer. ![]() ![]()

I was there but never got out of the vendors' barn (part of the AMPS model show). Sorry I missed connecting with all of you.

Thanks to everyone who came out to say Hello. It was great to meet and put faces to names that I see here on MLU. We had a great number of visitors come through our area to have a look at all the vehicles. On Saturday, we had 13 vehicles on display. Good turnout of visitors on Sunday as well. Have made a bunch of new friends and very much look forward to meeting up again. I am sorting through pictures and will post some of them shortly.
Cheers, Terry.
