The next day, I attended the muster of the SPAAMFAA convention and photographed several antique rigs, along with a few in-service apparatus from local FD's.  I also spent a good amount of time gabbing with old friends!

As I recall, there were three others from the 2005 event that were also present this year.  The only previously seen rig I phorographed was the Rohm & Haas engine, because the previous photo wasn't all that good.  The other three were aerials and better shots of them this year were not possible since their aerials were all up. Here are my shots of them from 2005.
