Clifford, thanks for letting us know and it is the proper forum for the news.

Many of us who have traveled west have visited B&B. It is sad to see a business like this have to close for reasons that are not the owner's choice.

I posted this on the other Board and repeat it here:


The end of an era!

Gary and Sandy will be sorely missed by the bus community.

I will be forever indebted to Gary for the time he spent educating, entertaining, and assisting me. He was the first in-person contact I had when I was looking for a conversion. While he was up front and told me he had nothing ready to sell, he met me at the airport and spent two days showing me how it was done. My knowledge meter zoomed.

Over the ensuing 22 years I have picked his brain many times. He has done a good bit of work on my Eagle, including the spiral staircase.

I will greatly miss visiting with him and Van during Vegas visits.

There are not words to thank such a couple for the effort they have put into our life passions.

In response to the question re Gary being one of the Eagle founders. Our history research some years back collected info on the club from Sand and Gary. Gary was the first President of the club.
