Seems like I recall a conversation about the SMB Fiamma Awning brackets at the gathering. It might have been @Berta having issues. Anyway there happened to be a thread started a week ago discussing the SMB mounting brackets and hardware.

Also, note that our member Ray (1der) sells Fiamma Awning brackets that do not require drilling holes in the van.

Berta is having the cracking issue. Queenie is having a problem with awning brackets leaking on her sprinter.

We've been married 50 years and I recently retired from 32 years with my consulting business. So it is a good time to go. I have missed the off-road trails for the last year and hope there are dirt roads and boondock camping in the next life. Happy trails to you until we meet again!
FYI, I recently saw this on LinkedIn. If you never met Mac, you missed out on meeting a truly fine individual.

Man, that's a bummer. I met him once and he was a great guy.

Thanks for sharing.
