Huge thanks for doing this once again Astro ! Plenty of good stuff happening in the world of vanning. You can still watch the video of the whole meeting on Youtube, not sure how long it will be up : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ic50bvbZ4DE
Had a great time over past few days. Met lot of vanners from this board and from other media sources. Sitting in the meetings and attending Judith's seminar and Coop's seminar I was able to learn a lot, especially vanning history. I appreciate everyone comments on our van that we brought out to the show today. And ultimately, the stories!!!
