It is 1998 for sure.  The rest of the photo album has plenty of pics of
ATIS member's and other's tractors, and the exhibit placards provided by
the show have the date, which shows up clearly in at least a few of the
images as Aug 26-30, 1998.  This was the year of the Boxes.  It is also the
year I flew in and camped (photo evidence of that too).  When I attended in
1996, I drove with Jim and Lisa Thomson. and motel'd.
