I haven't showered for a week so I'm heading there now!

Just kidding, I know guys love to complain about BO at these things. But yes, I'm really going. Hope I can find a parking spot.

Went this afternoon. Thought it was pretty good. We did have to walk a little ways from where we parked.

No really good deals to be had but it was nice to visit with some really good people that I do not see often enough. I did not immediately recognize some of my old friends, but I did recognize some of the old guns that seem to have been there for decades.

My neighbour an I went this morning around 11am - not very busy. My neighbour bought some brass, but it looks like lots of wishful thinking went into the price tags of most of what we saw (same old story).

I had a feeling last week to check when it was but I never followed through, I think I saw mention of the Stettler gun show and I knew they're usually only a week apart (some years having had tables at both). Probably the first one I missed for a while.
