Wish I could make it, but I'm stuck out east on a business trip. But this weekend I get to crew for the F-2000 open wheel race car that we sponsor! At least I'm wrenching, too.

Enjoy and take pics for me!

As usual, Mogfest was a blast. It was nice to see everyone having fun.
The campfires were a blast thanks to the "SoBe suplemental lighting crew"

I was told the trick is in the "shape and size of the Ve-Jay-jay"

When you see blue flames, it's show time

Lots of fun and minimal carnage this year! The kids were exhausted (me being one of the kids) after getting home, but a good night's sleep was had.

I look forward to next year already!

Here are the first samplings from the Moglist of pics...

All I can say is that a lot of people missed out on a great weekend. Most all the usual Moggers showed up, Jim and I had the only Haffies... which both handled superably ( Jim running stid steer tires, and I had winter/snow tires

) . Though there were several Pinzes, far fewer than what has shown up in the past at Calico.

I'll post links from the Moggers when they become available.
And can hardy wait to see what Vince has.

Great seeing everyone we had a truly marvelous time. Nice fresh terrain from the previous weeks rains and we had perfect weather for the whole weekend.

(Also posted this in new thread)

Had lots of fun guys! It was good to get back into a wheeling/camping atmosphere again. Thanks to Dave for getting me to go and for the breakfast transportation, same to Jim, and again to Jim for the timing/tuning! Enjoyed meeting the rest of you guys too.

I hope I can get out there again and explore it further. Sorry I don't have a lot of action pics. I was often waiting in the line or missed the moment for one reason or another.

The slideshow is also a little Mog heavy so someone might want to share it with them.
