Wagonfest photos

Traditionally on the forum, Wagonfest  IS the wagon of the month for August. So please post all your pics here.  Feel free to post them on your own Facebook page secondarily to making sure you post them all in ONE place, for everyone to see them! HERE!

Thanks
Dave.

OK. I'll go first. Here are a few from the lake, and from the parking lot at Bob and Ruth's in Naples.

Dave, how do you create the slideshow on photobucket to have it show up here it here. My album is uploaded,to there but I haven't discovered the secret of it showing up here as a slideshow rather than all individuals posts of pictures. Wrapping the "img" in brackets did not do it as hoped.

1.Create a new album on your Photobucket account.  Upload the pictures you want.
2. Select "View as slideshow" from upper right of window once album has loaded.
3.  From "share as" menu at right of album, click on button to copy "HTML" and then "paste" into the body of your message on the forum.  The slideshow will then appear in the window when you post your message.

To view the slideshow "full screen", click once on the opposing arrows at the lower right of the box around the image window.

I can link it for you all to click onto see, but not to have it show up as above.

Great zoom lense,Dave!

Here's few picks of the winners and attendees of Wagonfest

A few pics of your fellow wagon kooks first.











Chris Powell (Brokecello) loaded up his wagon with REAL wood for Long distance of almost 800 miles. One way, Best Interior and Best Exterior also went to Chris
Here's one pic of his smiling face  in the process of presentation.




"Driven Hard and Put Away Wet" is for the best stock vehicle, and went to Geneva local Dave Gadoury. (dmg4) It looks that good, because he only has to drive TWO FREAKING MILES to get to the show.



For best Mechanical mod the winner was Dave Pollock (95BRMW)



The overall peoples choice went to Doug Titilah (yachtdriver)




I'll add one more of your humble forum management, most of whom were in attendance.  From left to right we have:
Jay Doughty (JaySS) Chris Powell (Brokecello) Dave Buchholz (lakeffect) Pat O'Malley (buickestate) and Tom Cummings (Silverfox103)



Which brings us to the end.

I didn't take many pics, as we had diane and dave and dave with real camera's taking professional quality pics,.


heavy lifting in the parking lot,..


The cruise to dinner was a nice event,. beautiful country,..Big kudo's to Dave for organizing, it was an enjoyable addition to the event,.
Andy tried negotiating with a hooker,...a 285 yr old hooker,.



waiting on the bridge at niagara falls, i stepped out and took a quick pic facing down river,. 1 side is usa,. the other is canada,.

Great to see old friends and faces again,.
brokecello's christmas car is even nicer in person,.I love the fact that he shares my enthusiasm for driving the car to its full potential as well as showing it,.he certainly deserved all the awards he got,. glad the voting committee got it right,.

Thanks to the shepherd Dave B again for all his hard work behind the scenes to again organize a great event,.

Loving the pics folks. Sure wish I could make one of these. Everyone looks great and looks like a lot of fun. Wagon folks are the best! Good Times!

Here are my pictures of my trip to wagonfest, Sue got me a dashcam for my birthday, but I'm still learning how to download videos from it, I'm not tech savy with modern gadgets, so videos of the road trip may come in time. Unlike most of the wagonfesters Sue and I camped at the Cayuga state park outside of Seneca falls, very nice campground, well maintained with large sites. I've always thought it would make a nice after fest venue on saturday, could be a thought for next year bring a lawn chair, there is a fire pit, and I always bring our portable BBQ's, in the years past those of us who were camping did gather around a fire pit and talked wagon while enjoing adult beverages.

on with the pictures



















this is my visit to Watkin's Glenn, early Friday morning before the heat and humidity would make walking the gorge unbearable









and pictures from wagonfest









This last picture, was taken Sunday morning while on our way home, I made a point of stopping in to visit my Uncle Paul at his senior's home in St Cathrines Ontario, I found him out for his morning walk on the senior's home's grounds, He greeted me with a big smile and a tight bear hug. I then wished him a happy birthday and gave him his birhtday card since he turned 98 that day!
His plans for the day were to get in his new van, go pick up his girlfriend and drive out to the casino in Niagra falls for a nice dinner then go home for some fun. If only we could all be this active and alert on our 98th birthdays, still drives and has fun.

hey pat your uncle sounds great, i definitely hope to get around that much next year never mind at 98. i overheard someone at wf sat they never have seen the Pontiac before and it must be rare

I see the family resemblance between Pat and his uncle. They both wear their pants the same way.

Uncle Paul need to teach you to smile Pat! Come on man! Ha!

Dave B sneaking a dip with with his sweetie

Great pictures guys! Looks like you all had a great time. Hopefully some of you can make down to the Florida Wagonfest in Spring of 2017. And, hopefully this year they won't be foolish enough to make it on Easter weekend so more people show up.

Damn Pat, why you posting pictures of me running around behind my other girlfriends BBAAAAAACK!

I didn't take a lot of pictures too....since Dave and Tom's Wife had the fancy camera. There were so many really nice wagons there...and Nick had his "new" Fleetwood too.

Here is what I snapped though:

Stopping in Watkins Glen to buy tickets...that was an experience in itself! Wagon guys are cheap bastards!  Haha!

Someone needs a jump....baaaaaaad

Thought this was a cool wagon for sure.  Pat didn't make it perfect...on purpose.  It really looks like an  honest, clean 20yr old wagon that was build like this from the factory.





-
If I were to ever let my wagon go...it would be for a Clamshell.  These are so cool!






-
I was honored to win the awards I did...wow! I was especially honored to get the Best Interior.  Made me feel good since I took a lot of ribbing early on for my Christmas colors!

Call to awards VIDEO

Caravan and dinner time!!

Nice Pics, crap I need to check my brake lights looks like the right side is burnt out

Nice of Diane to save the bes...err,I mean mine for last. Thanks for sharing Tom.

Awesome pics guys! Looks like a blast, I'm still kicking myself for making WF plans w/ the wife. One of these years the stars will align and I will be there!(hopefully with a buddy)

Here's the long awaited movie of us all leaving the park as a unit in all its cinematographic grandeur.  I'm hoping to win a emmy for "Best short film that the rest of the world will never see and doesn't give a crap about anyway"

I can only watch the video in slow-mo?

Some nice pics and videos, guys! Here's mine -you can click on any pic to get a larger view of it, if you want to download one in full resolution or something.

















































And let's not forget this sight out on the lake: This dog would rather conga than swim...
