No criticism meant of anyone else's pictures, but... how wonderfully organized this is... rigs matched to owners matched to names!! Actual names!!
For those of us who can't come to the rallies, it is fun to put faces to the posts we have all been reading.
Thanks Davydd!!

mumkin, It is an all volunteer effort. At the B5 Rally I managed to photograph all the Bs but I did not get all the people. Then with 48 Bs I had some effort to match names just to the Bs. This time I tried to get everyone with some success informally matched to their Bs. Maybe at Moab we can organize and get everyone standing by their Bs and combine the shots. You know though it can be like herding cats at a B Social. As for real names, first names are enough. It keeps some privacy and few seem to worry about last names. I tend to think in RV.net names. I even caught that I was referring to myself as Davydd and not David in one caption. I'm morphing and become unreal!

I know a few of you are readers of the forums at Roadfood.com. I posted a pork tenderloin sandwich centric road food trip report for those members that can be found here.

Amazing how I knew that cat thing and I wasn't even there. I wasn't asking for full names or anything. I would have been happy with just the screen names to be able to match things up...

David we'll have to try getting everyone together at Moab like you say to take a pic with their van. I like that idea. It'll be a job though just like you say!

We are back in Minnesota. Had a great time at the rally/social, and a good visit with our daughter's family on the way home. Managed to skirt the storms all the way.
Our photos are at:
http://tinyurl.com/64k59o
Not too many and pretty repititous of what has already been posted. However, the first one is a panarama of the campsites that I took from the highest campsite near the entrance. It is made up of 12 photos and if printed at full size would be 2 1/2 feet by 20 feet. Don't worry about your bandwidth, what is posted has been greatly reduced. If you click on it, it should fit across your screen.
If you want any of the photos,click on the magnifying glass labled "all sizes that is located on top of each photo, and then select the size you would like to view or download.
Thanks again for the great time. Sorry we missed the PTL lunch. However, we did get to Council Bluffs in time to babysit our grandson.
Hope to see all of you again on the road or at the next social.

Some of you mugs are going to get multiple exposure. Seven Bs from RV.net B5 made it to Niobrara and 11 Niobrara Bs will show up at Moab. If my count is correct 6 Bs will do the trifecta and 16 of the 31 registered at Moab will have attended either B5 and/or Niobrara.

Cool I'll be one of the 6 B's in the trifecta.

We arrived home, and I 'think' I was successful in adding our photos to Gary's BEE Social Group website. Please go to:
