Thanks to all for a FUN time...

Namely the Gillespie horde that lined out the t-shirts, raffle, and organization... I appreciate the efforts and view it as a bang up success.

Thanks to TXBBQRUB... blake may have been a little of a candy ass (:flipoff2:), but I had a blast meeting him and his buddies and going out wheeling with him.

Edwin... Strength percieved is strength achieved... note taken... badass time with your whole crew, my friends are all appreciative of the hospitality you showed them.

TXLugnut- THis pussy couldn't stay AWAY from crack... it was wild... all that gettin' it and no damaged body panels. You sir amaze me.

It may have started out a little roughly for me, but I highly enjoyed it... when is it going down again?

Pretty much everything Doug said. Raffle was great, I'm enjoying my new strap even though I wanted the Detroit :), BBQ was delicous, hope you guys made out ok on that deal, Edwin was his usual gracious self, everyone I met was terrific and it was an all around blast. 3rd time I've been to Kruse ranch to wheel and this time I wheeled far more than any other. The rig is home battered, bruised and a little broke but it was well worth it!!

Oh yea...kudos to Brian, Doug and I for coming up with this crazy idea 4 months ago and for Brian for taking the ball and running with it

Thanks for the compliments. I was just glad that I had the time it takes available in my schedule to do this. I would really like to thank Necy for everything she did. With out her, this whole thing would have never happened as she was the sole person behind the web page and registration. She acted in a timely manner on updates to the web page and took all 80-something entry forms, then posted them on the page. Props to Necy. I was happy to see all of the people that showed up, we had a great group. All total, we had around 100 rigs show up and approximately 350 people. Have to run to Louisianna for work, catch you guys later.

Blake,
Bryan will be out of contact (working in LA) for a few weeks. If there is settlement needed on the BBQ from his side, call me at 817-319-0094. The food was great, and I will order the rub from you in a few days. I thought you guys handled the situation with perfection.

Thanks,
Marshall Gillespie

Hey Marshall

I would like to thank you for organizing the raffle items.
Yes, I would like my tshirt, xlarge, and my husband had paid for one also, xlarge. We did not make it, obviously. Man, the par-tay of the year, and I was at home, but not by choice. We found out we weren't able to make it Friday night at midnight when Russ was still out in the driveway working on my Toy. Grrrrrrr!

here is my email. give me a line and i will send you an address.

whistlesweb@austin.rr.com

Laters,
Necy
