pflaming Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 This was only the third one I’ve missed and I missed it all day today. I’ve had leg and fatigue issues this winter, a rod went out on the truck and I just couldn’t get the suburban ready.

51Hemi Posted April 13, 2021 Report Share Posted April 13, 2021 Tim & Stephanie, 2021 another great event! It was good to see everyone, (at least once a year). I realize how much work, effort and cost there is in putting on an event like this. I cant wait to see that Hemi in the flying brick! We have to work on getting that fork lift running. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48Dodger Posted April 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Thank you everyone for the best time of the year!!! I'll sort the pictures I have and post them soon. I was looking at Brent's (Brentb3b) burnout and realized there's no way to save it, so I took a few more pictures for my own memories of Gary. I'm working on a collage of past pictures to give his wife. She contacted me before the show and wished everyone a good time and wants to see the pictures of this BBQ. Ed......next trip to Minnesota, I'll hand the stainless steel grille bars over.....BUT you owe me a trip to the BBQ before there are no more!!!!!! Thanks to Kevin(Bluzhog53) for bringing the bitchin' ride he won....AND for the excellent sound system.....you are awesome, my friend! I have admired Charlie's(51Hemi) truck for years. He shows up just about every year and helps knock out the tough stuff weeks before the BBQ. After so many years of being a true friend, it was time to crown his truck "Best Of Show"!!! and yeah, its got a Hemi"! Jim Shepard (Jim Shepard) is the best. He's been a good friend for so long and really the first contact I had with a real Pilot House Era truck. And the long distant travelers.....Oregon, Minnesota, Southern Cal, Nevada....and any I missed. You guys humble me, thank you. I'm just getting older and richer with all my truck buddies.....I appreciate you all. The plan my wife and I agreed to is, 20 BBQ's......there will be only 6 more Tailgate BBQ's! Hope to see you at one soon! Tim aka 48Dodger 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggdad1951 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 by then it will be such a smooth operation you'll go to 25 or 30 BBQ's! Always good to see my friends on the left coast and Tim, you are a gracious host! Till next year (but gotta plan better around the FF for this MN kid!)! ? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
