Fall of 2002 found the Northlanders on the road to Waseca, MN for a fall meet coordinated by Craig & Kathy Schuster.  We toured the Kinder-Dennis Home for Funerals in downtown Waseca following a group breakfast, then motorcaded south to Albert Lea, MN for a barbecue at the home of Peter Phelps.  Peter is the owner of the 1965 Cotner-Bevington Oldsmobile ambulance that transported Mary Jo Kopechne following the Ted Kennedy incident on Chappaquiddick Island June 18, 1969.  Peter also had a variety of old crash scene photos - many that included views of old ambulances - to show us.  Northland Chapter member, Jeff Damm, tended the grill by popular vote.  As a firefighter, Jeff is no stranger to preparing delicious meals.  He certainly did not disappoint us!

	From the other end of the line on the right is Chuck Kramer's 1986 H&E Cadillac FWD limo next to Patrick Martin's 1986 H&E Cadillac RWD limo.  Jon Wurm's C/B Oldsmobile ambulance anchors the center of the picture.

	The fields of Minnesota are certainly fertile.  This 1972 C/B Oldsmobile ambulance owned by Jon Wurm looks like it is ready for pickin' next to this corn field.
