I wonder who the VIP could possibly be? Maybe Governor Blago??

Post by: gibster on March 06, 2020, 04:27:02 AM: What time will you be going through? Setup is at 8am and open to invited guests at 9 on Friday morning. That early, there may be some folks that aren't set up yet, but most probably will be. So stop by if passing through anytime after 9 and look me up. Would welcome the chance to meet another ALR member.

Post by: snapper on March 06, 2020, 05:23:29 AM: Just looked at the map and I forgot that I will be running a more southern route home. Bringing my Amish buddy and one of his young sons with me. I am no longer going to be tent camping at Friendship and my buddy Rick Weber and I have a cabin delivered on Monday. My Amish buddy is going to help us finish cabin. He is from southern Iowa.

I really do appreciate the comments, had me excited for a few minutes about being able to stop by.

Thanks

I've learned I cant do that. They follow me home! Small venue. Always something neat to see. And at nearing 59 years old makes me feel like a youngster being there.

Post by: JEH on March 15, 2020, 09:44:02 PM: Yeah I was one of the youngins in the room. But its the interest in these things that keeps us coming. Been there a number of times. Guess I should do better at introductions. Interesting little show none the less.
