Bussin' 2006 is now history. We had beautiful weather and about 160 coaches attend. We want to thank everyone for making it such a success. This includes the sponsors, vendors, volunteers, entertainment, seminar speakers, and everyone that attended. We are already planning Bussin' 2007. Horizon Coach has already graciously offered their facilities for Bussin, 2007. The rally will be from Friday, December 29 through Monday, January 1, 2007. Once again, thanks to all for making Bussin' 2006 such a huge success. Jack & Paula Conrad |

Jack, Paula and everyone else involved, As at any any event this large you never get a chance to thank everyone involved, but from one Busnut to another, a heartfelt THANKS. And to any Newbee thinking "I will wait until I have a bus to attend", Don't. Their were people there in RV's pop-ups, SUV's, cars, I didn't see any tents though, "must be hard to sleep in a tent with 12 ton buses moving around" Oops, squish. But seriously, you will never be in the presence of more people who share your passion for these conversions or more willing to show you around an share there experiences. See you at Bussin 2007, if not sooner Cliff |

Don't we all just love Jack and Paula? Hip, hip and hooray! Great folks coordinating an absolutely fabulous event in the service to the converted coach owner. In religious terms, both placed high amongst the saints of the busnut faith, Jack for fronting this thing, and Paula for her own work as well as dealing with her husband's obsession. Not the only saints, by far, but for today, the ones we think of most dearly. Thanks Jack and Paula! Most of us still wouldn't know one another without you! happy coaching! buswarrior |

BusWarrior You are one of the regular BNO posters I wanted to meet while at Arcadia but run out of time in searching for everyone I did get to visit with. I will look forward to us meeting up next year and many more after. I was glad to see you made it to Canada and you had the forsight to carry spares, I am learning from guys like you if I will make note of if ever get the "Rustless Money Pit" roadworthy. I also wanted to meet up with "Rich" of International Bus Parts Inc. but was not aware he was not even there until the previous posting by him and also Jerry SoJourn. Next time I will get to relax and have an idea what in the dickens I want to do. Jack & Paula, I agree with everyone with the comments about thanking you for the great time I am sure we all had that attended. I expecially thank you for the support you gave me personaly getting settled in as a newbie seminar provider and meeting up with Jim & Pat Shepherd. Enjoy our well deserved retirement, You have alot of people wishing you the best in your new life. I wish I could of attended all of the seminars that were there, just for the knowledge I am still searching for and again to all newbie's, (See these Seminars for Updates for fire safety for your coaches, the alarms needed for our rigs to protect us and our families, GPS operations that you can understand, How to be a full timer in 340 SQ. FT. of area and love it, towing a toad safely and the marketing products available for us to do that, How to do stamping with your kids and family on personal cards, mechanical brake adjustments, stuffing a new power house in your bus rear end for the power of a life time and oh yea and how inspect your bus and also to prevent future rust. I hope next time to meet Ian and his wife as well. I have to look at one of those high end $$ buses actually used by people everyday like us and not just abused by entertainers with all the high end whistles and bells, I just want to look at though. My thurst for knowledge does not want to go into the whistle & bell area too deep, just want to look. We will see you later Buswarrior, God Speed to you and your Family. Gary |

Jack and Paula - Sorry for the belated thankyou - but here it comes - I noticed that the warm weather seems to follow BUSWARRIOR's family down every year - maybe we should coerce them into arriving sooner and staying later - Great times as usual and Thanks again - Niles |
