NVNTRAK celebrated it's annual Fall Cook-out at the October Museum Setup at the Fairfax Station Train Museum...  As usual, I managed not to be there, thereby missing some great food (dogs and sausage!) and some well-deserved honors for our Quartermaster-General, Bill Baldwin!  Here are some pictures of the event, brought to you by the "Daves", Freshwater and Davies!  Click on the thumbnails for full-sized pics and don't worry too much about the warped perspectives on some of them - they quite well match the event, so I'm told!
