The Great Lakes International Antique Fire Apparatus Association covers southeastern Michigan and Southwestern Ontario held their 41st annual muster yesterday, with the last 16 in beautiful Frankenmuth Michigan. As usual, the turnout was very good with nearly 60 rigs turning out, the weather was perfect, and the local Frankenmuth community support was great. I just realized that this was the 30th straight GLIAFAA muster that I attended since joining in 1982. To share some of the rigs in attendance, I photographed those that participated in the parade that winds its way from Heritage Park on the banks of the Cass river through downtown Frankenmuth and back to the park.
One of the neatest aspects of the parade is that it crosses the Cass river on a wooden covered bridge. That's one of the places I photographed the rigs from as they were returning to the park. Here is a picture of the bridge.
