Danny brought his 1970 M151A2 and M416 trailer, I brought my 1939 Colson bicycle and John brought his '45 MB.  Ray V showed up with his M151A2 as did former member Houston W and his '54 civilian Dodge Power Wagon.

After unloading our vehicles, we wandered over to the usual lunch establishment - Bill Miller's BBQ across the street and ate.  Around noon, we headed back to the Alamodome for registration activities and finally moved our vehicles into the Alamodome.

After attendance at the Drivers Meeting, the doors opened up to the general public at 2:00pm for the pit-party at which point the floor became a sea of spectators.  Danny had lines of people in front of his jeep for pictures.  Jim and Don had lines of picture takers and hand-shakers as well.  Houston had a lot of traffic as did John and his MB.  Me and the bike...well, let's just say it wasn't as popular as the others    :-)

After the pit party was finished, our club was asked to perform a drive-thru parade around the center area for a show of military history.  This was a thrilling part of the event as our club was recognized as well as what these vehicles have done for the freedoms we enjoy.

After the military parade, John was supposed to bring out the National Anthem singer.  That process however became a bit bungled and John was left in the tunnel with no singer.  Hence, he loaded his jeep and found his way to our seats a short time later.

The show was interesting with Grave Digger and another 6 or so monster trucks.  There were the 4-wheelers, lawn tractor drags, sand drags and a stunt at the end of the show.

As always, this is a fun first show of the season and based on the turn-out of military vehicles, we put on a good show and added value to their event.
