Title: Lewisburg show
Post by: billd on January 23, 2009, 05:46:06 AM: Is there much in the way of gun part vendors at this show? Just wondering how much restraint I'm going to need.

What is local to the show such as shopping malls etc. that the one who puts up with us may enjoy?
Thanks.

Lewisburg is a historical town, many old buildings and shops, and home to Bucknell University. If she's into college sports check there web site for any home games. A guy about 10 miles west of Lewisburg has about 15 elk in his yard, 2 big bulls. Back to the east on 80 there's the mall at Buckhorn, that's a little further than the others. Probably more than this.

That's the problem. It is about a 7 hour drive for us due east Left her this AM headed for Columbus 30 miles away, it was nice and clear, weatherman said possibility of snow showers. I'll bet the people in those 7 or 8 accidents we saw would dispute the term snow showers. OMG!
Hope you have a great turnout and would like to be there but I am afraid Mr Murphy would have to go along and he could definitely put a damper on things.

PS: Watch, there will be a heat wave.
